Yes We Can!

Yes we can fight for a living wage!
Yes we can fight to get money out of politics!
Yes we can encourage millions of people to GOTV!
Yes we can fight for the working class and their right to dignity!
Yes we can join in solidarity to the Palestinians' right to decency!
Yes we can fight for single-payer healthcare and free public uni/col tuition!
Yes we can fight to protect our environment from irreparable damage!
Yes we can STILL BELIEVE IN THE POLITICAL REVOLUTION!
Yes we can not give a fuck about the Hillary coronation!
Yes we can get angry about the corrupt system we have by working to get money outta politics!
Yes we can give a damn about our democracy!

Bernie Sanders hasn't given up on you or me, so please don't give up on him or the movement! This isn't just another primary campaign, this is the changing of the guard. This is the LAST hoo-rah for the establishment, so let em' have at it Hoss!

Our time is coming.

That US Senate Debate

was a complete dud. Kamala was vague at times, Ron lost many voters on his immigration stance, and Sanchez had some decent points, but turned out to be a DINO on many issues. Not one of them mentioned the impact of money in politics, breaking up the big banks, the need for single-payer, and the need for $15/hr minimum wage(Ron opposed it but said $12 is enough--which we know isn't). When they asked about free public tuition for students, not one of them supported it above the community college level.

We don't have any strong progressive candidates in the race as of now which is extremely disappointing considering our so called progressive nature of politics. Overall, very discouraged by that debate.

Hey Maryland...

Vote for Jamie Raskin for Congress. He's a true progressive who will work to get money out of politics and fight for the issues affecting the working class.

Thanks Jamie for being a true progressive fighting for the small folks

When establishment types complain about us having purity tests...

You're goddamn right we have purity tests. We want politicians who work for US, not the lobbyists or the political elites. Anyone who criticizes others for purity tests of politicians have no backbone and no standards for how our political system should function.

The fight marches on!

DO NOT GIVE UP! The movement continues. Even if Bernie is finished, our movement isn't. We don't have to stand for the status quo but fight against it. Y'all don't know how sad I am but I shouldn't be because we're in this together. Let's keep going on this political revolution and elect bold progressives.

When in doubt, FEEL THE BERN!!!

A call for same-day registration and open primaries.

In response to the voter suppression in NY/AZ, let's call on our state officials to open the primaries. Even though unaffiliated voters can vote, opening the primaries would allow all voters to vote, preventing voters from being turned away or not counting their vote. Plus, same-day registration with the ability to change your voter status on the spot would also benefit voter's rights and ability to vote. Let's get this message to as many CA residents as possible!

Here we are.

A night of high tension is upon us. 4 million phonebanking calls, thousands of volunteers, and so much more. This proves that our future is bright and that our democracy will be protected. No matter what result we get tonight, I just want to say from the bottom of my heart, thank you fellow Berners for inspiring millions of people like me to get involve in this thing called a democracy. This movement has made me even a better person than what I was 12 months ago. I can't imagine what it'll be like if Bernie hadn't run and man I'm glad I'm not on the sidelines.

If not for what happens tonight, let's make this a memorable campaign. One that inspires the voiceless, the sick, the vulnerable. I can care less if we win or lose, this campaign is freakin' amazing and I wouldn't have it any other way.

FEEL THE BERN!!!!
