You have painted yourself in a corner with those talking points. The country is going to go forward not backward or stay the same.

8. These senators and representatives who take corporate money

Are not going to endorse an anti corporate candidate. You don bite the hand that feeds you. Common Sense 101.

These endorsements actually highlight the problem of the citizens united decision. Time to have publicly funded elections.

The Insiders' Club, whether they have worked for some progressive causes or not, are still the Insiders' Club. The media are theirs as well.

Anyone who doesn't see this basic problem, and the painful but necessary process to change it (beginning with the election of Bernie Sanders), has his head in the sand.

13. What strikes me is that all 3 pools of pols are significant minorities

That minority status IS NOT because the Democratic party has been following an economic path that is working for the majority of US voters.

Bernie can create a totally new paradigm.

And the first debate just supercharged Hillarys campaign.

A very unexpected result for the far right and the far left.

They both got egg on their faces.

Go Hillary!
