All the polling points towards wins from here on out.

Get involved and get people you've never met motivated to show up at the polls from here on out. It's not over, our time has just begun.

Neoliberalism is an unsustainable socioeconomic model. A healthy economy cannot exist without a thriving middle class, The income gap cannot continue to widen indefinitely. The revolution is coming, whether the oligarch like it or not, because it is absolutely necessary for the survival of civilization.

A civilization can survive without elites. It cannot survive without workers.

Remember what V said in 'V for Vendetta' at the final battle? The cops emptied their guns at him and he slowly rose up, looked at them slyly, and said "My turn." Well, now it's Bernie's turn.

anyone who can afford it, please do so. This pays for ads, feet on the ground, all ways that people can get to know Bernie. And when they know him, they vote for him. Not that lying, war mongering, Wall Street, Libya and Haiti destroying, smirking at people dying other candidate.

I'm with Bernie all the way.

I'm feeling a little (a lot) downcast because I just cannot understand why people aren't FLOCKING to vote for a man with such absolute integrity. We say we want it in our politicians, but when someone like Bernie is right there available to vote for, more than half of Democrats go "Nah."

On the other hand, I guess I should be encouraged that he came out of nowhere and is a serious challenger to someone who has been running for this office for 16 years. (And there's nothing wrong with Hillary's dedication and ambition, and she worked very hard as a senator and SoS. I'm just saying that it's pretty impressive for him to have gone from a standing start to where he is now.)

We have such a rare opportunity to support a man who is and always has been guided by his principles instead of by political expediency. I am so proud to support him. And this picture is one reason why.

and this is great. i'm sure hillary was real worried there for most of the early evening it is so close in those 2 states - one being her home state - the volunteers, bernie, his staff and surrogates worked very hard to get there despite no help whatsoever from the media. he is doing well - and the seeds for the revolution have been planted. keep a strong heart! go bernie!

Bernie and his campaign has helped set the revolution in motion. It is up to us to build on what he has started. The current political dialog offers a false choice between rapid impoverishment and a gradual decline into genteel poverty. We can and must change those options. Bernie's campaign is a building block which we should use to rebuild the middle class and emasculate the oligarchy.
