Bernie Sanders will be the Democratic Nominee.

We've seen this shit before.

1. The corporate media declared Hillary the winner in 2007/2008 debates too. They were wrong then just like they are wrong now.

2. Bernie is outpacing Barack Obama in donations in comparison to 2007/2008. I mean from what I understand what he raised off of the debate has reached 3 million.

3. The corporate media will have plenty of more "Dewey defeats Truman" moments before all is said and done, they will be wrong those times too most likely.

4. It is much tougher for them to cheat these days between social media, the possibility of too high of a voter turn out for them to rig it, and not to mention the hacktivist collective Anonymous.

With that all being said though. Will they pull out all the stops in order to stop this good man from reaching the White House? Absolutely. We must be vigilant and be there to counter every single lie, every single distortion, and every single half-truth. "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.". You cannot stop a idea whose time has come.

Have a good day Bernie group.

We make it so. We can't sit back and watch. Let the Hillary supporters do that. If we work hard enough, we win.
