(2,281 posts)There are 2 candidates in Nov. Both are suck-ass corporatists and both will be horrible for you. You vote for one of the two. How many votes in your favor did you cast?
I understand for people who "got theirs" already there is always tomorrow. For people like me tomorrow needs to actually happen real soon. I've been walking in the desert for well over 30 yrs as a voter. In my 50's, I realize now that all I was ever running for was a carrot on a stick. The party has told me the same thing for over 3 decades, "we'll get around to your labor issues someday."
The DLC/Clinton gang has been playing one long con on us our whole lives and now they want their queen anointed. We are always told primaries are when us little people can have their say but what they don't say is that if your name is Bill Halter, Meek, Lamont.....then HAHAHAHAHAHAH! And those guys are just the few who ever made it past the DNC dirty tricks always played at primary time.
If the party doesn't see how powerful Bernie's 4mill contributions is, it is because they don't want to see because they are paid not to see. That means they are no friends of mine. Bernie is my last hunt for the Dems. If they fuck this up they can crash and burn for all I care. This country needs a worker's party anyway, not the 2 republican parties we have now.
