Just whipped it up when I heard Bernie is running

Warren isn't running but at least we have someone who will force Hillary to address concerns from the liberal core of the Democratic party.

The extra judicial murder of Qaddafi
is hardly a human rights highlight.

Vapid talking point do NOT
equal actually supporting
those issues.

The Middle class is evaporating.
Hillary has done what to address that crisis?

The working poor and indigent are
in absolute crisis.
What has Hillary done about that?

Has she asked her banker friends to
provide any relief for those working
and living hand to mouth?

Where is Hillary on the TRILLION dollar
student loan crisis?

For every vapid talking point there
is a real life crisis going unaddressed
by Hillary.

Name a few republican asses she's kicked?

Bernie's pulling on her LEFT leg.

If we can find the exact location of her logo heart, I'd like to pull there too.

... and him pulling it so that it turns around and the H points to the left instead of the right (and has perhaps the whole backside of the H colored blue too!). I think that would be a cool metaphor too.

I'm stealing it. No apologies. Although I will give you credit.

That is masterful, and I speak as a graphic designer.

I too do some graphic design. I didn't have a lot of time. I had to blow up the letter and so its a little fuzzy. If I had time I'd redo the edges nice and sharp.

Bernie's job is Run For President. I'll help pull HIM there!

(Unfortunately, Hillary's too far corporate right for anyone to pull her out)

and I'd get to see a President Sanders! And I'll support him as long as I can.

Sorry for being realistic. But the corporate world would NEVER allow that to happen. If Bernie ever did win the primary, billions upon billions of Superpac money would pour into smearing the "anti-American socialist". So much easier than the popular wife of one of the most popular Presidents. The corporate press would hound him day and night at the behest of their owners. He wouldn't stand a chance (IMO)

But I still applaud Bernie for running because it will force Hillary to at the very least address her stances on foreign policy, Wall Street oversight etc.. On social issues obviously her and Bernie are in agreement. She has been able to simply ignore Warren's concerns up until now. Now there is someone with similar concerns she will be forced to publicly debate and either defend her RW positions or change them.
