1. +1! Every Democrat should make this as clear as Bermie does here!

2. This should be getting more recs...

Bernie tells it like it is!

I see no redeeming value in the Republican Party.

5. Kick. Will Hillary make a similar statement?

8. she will play politics

She will if during the primaries, if there is a challenge to her. But once she gets, if she does, the nomination, she will drop all of it and swerve toward the center...like they all do....
Bernie, hopefully, would not do that.....and something about him tells me he would not.

6. How do I give this more than one rec?

Love this guy

7. run Bernie run

That is all there is to say: Run Bernie Run

9. I hope that he runs in order to provide this message, loudly and clear to the citizens.

He would serve two major purposes regardless if he doesn't actually win the nomination. He could have a national audience that he could address with these critical issues. Hopefully, he could wake up the non-voting poor and youth to the facts. I don't think he would have much luck with the die-hard Republican brain dead zombies. Secondly, it would force Clinton to take a hard stand on these issues amplifying the message and at least moving her off center, if not locking her into a position if she is elected.

I can only hope that for the future of the nation and my grandchildren that he runs since so much is at stake.

10. "Free to die." That about sums up the TeaPublican ideology.
