I think John Lewis just "endorsed" Biden, he said "we have to redeem the soul of America!"

[George II]

[nolabear]

1. Was that beautiful or what? I cried and cheered at once.

[George II]

3. My wife's wondering what's going on with the tears in my eyes.

[AGeddy]

2. I'm old enough to remember the Bernie supporters booing John Lewis

[oldsoftie]

15. Just like the "Occupy" idiots in atlanta. Lewis just walked off the stage & left.

That was one of the most ridiculous and embarrassing things I'd ever seen before trump was elected

[NBachers]

35. This is why I will have no truck with Bernie or any of his supporters.

There are plenty of other reasons but this is the primary unforgivable and inexcusable offense.

[YOHABLO]

4. Not going to happen with Republicans in charge of Congress.

Getting rid of Mitch McConnell might be a start. Helloooooo Kentucky... are you out there?

[True Blue American]

11. Amy McGrath

Moving on up. Democratic Governor, Andy Beshear! Another Democrat won this week.

[George II]

21. A "Justice Democrat" just decided to run in the primary against her. Sure, make our Democrats....

....piss all their money away in a primary so they won't be able to sustain their General Election campaigns.

[True Blue American]

22. Who is it?

[George II]

25. Some guy named Booker, a one-year member of the Kentucky state legislature.

[True Blue American]

27. Found this.

[George II]

29. Oh GOD: "Booker sounded ready to take on the establishment in both political parties."

[True Blue American]

30. You said it!

[Cha]

5. John Lewis likes Biden's Style.

Thankfully Biden and the other candidates were there to honor him and all those who were beaten at the EP Bridge

Where were Sanders and Gabbard on this Sunday in March?

[True Blue American]

7. Campaigning.

[Cha]

9. Oh and I read Sanders was on the TV talking about the..

wait for it.. "the establishment"!

[True Blue American]

10. The " Establishment,"

Changed the rules so he could run!

[sheshe2]

14. Sanders is at a huge rally in CA.

[George II]

17. Free concert.

[sheshe2]

19. Lol

[Cha]

18. Yeah.. thanks she. a rally.

[True Blue American]

6. Those guys know Joe.

BTW, I decided after months of not being sure.

Those Congressmen know Biden, but that did not affect my decision. Empathy for others did. I know how Joe feels. To heal you try to make good out of bad. Joe has done that, more than once.

[LiberalFighter]

31. It is part of the reason automatic delegates were included.

They know the ins and outs of what is happening.

[CatMor]

8. I admire John Lewis, he is one of the best in office ..

a real hero. So glad he endorsed Biden.

[George II]

13. No, it's not official (yet), but he used Biden's "soul of America" expression. That might be a hint.

[patphil]

12. Not surprised, Lewis endorsed Hillary in 2016.

I don't think he likes Bernie.

[Mr.Bill]

20. He must be one of those

"Establishment" people.

[Perseus]

39. What would you call someone who has been in office since 1987?

Yes, he is part of the "Establishment", what else can you call it?

If someone should know about "having to change the status quo" it should be him, but once you become part of the "Establishment" for so long then you can't get away from it. He even defended Biden when Biden talked about his fond memories of working with segregationists, I guess the black vote shows they have forgiven him for that, and a few other things, or don't know about it.

John Lewis is a good man and he fought very hard to change things for blacks, I admire him, but he is part of the establishment, can't escape that, plus, what is wrong with being part of the establishment, besides the point that people there want to keep the status quo?

[Mr.Bill]

43. Whoa, there,

check your sarcasm meter, there, my friend.

[True Blue American]

44. My thoughts on that one.

What does 30 years in Congress make you? Surprise 😛 Part of the Establishment!

[Mr.Bill]

45. And that's not always a bad thing.

[True Blue American]

28. Didn't Hillary

Say that?

[sheshe2]

16. The sooner the better.

[padah513]

23. Sanders didn't go to Selma?

[George II]

24. No, he's at a rally in California.

[Gothmog]

26. I am so that JOHN Lewis was able to attend this event

Link to tweet

?s=20

[Dem2theMax]

33. That picture just brought me to tears.

John Lewis is a National Treasure. I look at his picture and I see hope and courage, and everything that is good about this country.

He has fought so many fights for so many people.
It is my absolute wish that he win this personal fight and be with us for many years to come.

[Gothmog]

34. Same here

Congressman Lewis is a national treasure

[FailureToCommunicate]

32. Go John Lewis!

And go JOE!

[IluvPitties]

36. The party is coming around: Biden is our best bet!

[calimary]

37. The Conscience of America is working to save the soul of America.

[4bucksagallon]

38. Well, you may be reading too much into it.

John Lewis the Georgia Democrat and influential member of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) has not endorsed a 2020 candidate for president, telling reporters last year that he was not leaning towards making an endorsement.

[Perseus]

40. In case you have not seen this

[George II]

41. Oh I saw it, but what does that have to do with John Lewis' comments this afternoon? Plus....

...half of what Sirota said are either exaggerations or isn't true.

[wyldwolf]

42. talk to us about Sanders' legislative accomplishments.
