I'm voting for Bernie in the primary.
The democrats are fractured now and more than ever will refuse to vote in the general if their preferred candidate doesn't win the primary. I'm voting for the democrat in the general no matter who it is, but am I in the minority?
Meanwhile the republicans just love Trump and to them he can do no wrong.

Wed Sep 23, 2015, 08:19 PM
Sep 2015

do anything to keep a progressive out. But that isn't justification for not trying. We must break the hold the Oligarchs have on our government or die trying. We have 22% of American children living in poverty and there are those that rationalize that that's ok because we might lose if we try to fight the Oligarchy. We have a moral obligation to change the status quo which is destroying the 99% and there is zero indication that Clinton is interested. We must take the chance. Our Founders would be very disappointed if we vote in a candidate that supports the status quo.

Let's work to prove that prediction right everyone. He has the whole deck stacked against him remember that he needs us to win. If Bernie becomes the next President of the United States it will not only be a victory for Bernie Sanders but ultimately a victory for we the people but even after that victory we cannot rest we must then take the next steps in the political revolution.

Now is the time for a real progressive populist movement, but the message needs to be clear and not overly complex and it needs to be repeated over and over to drive it home into the minds of the people.

Then Bernie will win.

A good chunk of Congress is bought and paid for. Bernie, as President, wouldn't be a miracle worker, but he might head us in the direction of being a country that gives a shit about all of its citizens, not just the super wealthy ones. We really do need a giant shake-up in Washington.

Sanders 2016 is little more than Kucinich 2008. In fairness to Bernie, he is probably 20 years and 18 trillion dollars too early.
