Dear Bernie haters
Progressives like us don't want the status quo as we see our communities, families and friends spinning their wheels going nowhere and not progressing forward in life. Alan Grayson pretty much echoed that salient thought of everyone backing Bernie when he mentioned this on Maher's show last night.
So Hillary can have a logo that points towards a direction of progress but the reality is that she has campaigned constantly that she is running on the status quo. Now, if you are satisfied with what President Obama has accomplished thus far that is fine. But why put down the baton Obama is passing onto us and proclaim Victory! when we can take the race a greater distance with Bernie? To continue with the analogy the race isn't finished just because of what Obama has accomplished. The idea is to build onto what he has accomplished and forge forward. That is why the status quo is never appealing to any voter regardless of political affiliation or even any democratic country on this earth. Your time on earth is limited and to maximize it you must ask yourself and others around you for more. Challenge yourself and push your limits.
It is easy to take comfort instead of thriving but that is the difference between Clinton and Bernie.
I choose for America to thrive again.
Sure, not all of Bernie's bold ideas will be put in practice but it is worth a try. That is why Obama beat Hillary the first time around, so history may repeat itself once more.
Ciao.
