Corporatist Democrats are picking our pockets.

We need to do more than merely defeat the hapless Republicons, we need to get the corrupting influence of Citizens United out of our government. We need Sanders.

I have unlimited talk time and an Iphone5s with a good ear bud and microphone setup. A set up just for this endeavor.

I have a voice that people find is easy to talk too and a demeanor that most people like. As long as I'm not being fed bullshit I'm pretty easy going.

I've never done this before and I'm apprehensive but I think I can pull it off

but I will support him simply because he is honest and un-bought; something we desperately need....besides, I think Hillery may be in some legal trouble soon based on the last State Department email dump:

Simply saying "I am a Democrat" would be enough. But some war crazy conservatives have hijacked our Party leadership and openly want to "spread Democracy" (read imperialism) around the world. The Neocons support HRC for president.

Considering the clowns running for Republican nomination, I'm sure that the corporate media and the oligarchy want Hillary as well.

and I will vote for the person who will do the best possible job while in office, and will not be swayed or corrupted. Bernie will, without any doubt, be one of the best influences the U.S. has ever seen.

I am a democrat and DO NOT SUPPORT affordable and debt free education for all. Someone like Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton, the 1% who have the disposable income, (and they all do), including Martin O'Malley (and his bullshit...me and Katie had to pay.......) should have to pay for their children's education.

Thats not a very good argument against affordable education. In fact its pretty ridiculous. Everyone should have access to it. No matter what class.

See how great this country is when I can totally disagree with you and I am not running off to to overthrow a bird sanctuary in the dead of winter without warm socks. Its not an argument about AFFORDABLE education, its an argument about FREE education

The Rich don't to worry about saving money. We do. Trust me Dumps kids aren't going to public colleges. And I'd be fine with Hillary's kids saving money. ALL of us should have access to it. The same goes for Healthcare.
