Here Comes Bernie!

Last edited Thu Oct 24, 2019, 03:43 PM - Edit history (1)

Great showing in the last National Emerson poll, but its important to keep in mind that the numbers are massaged to represent percentages from 2016. I can only imagine, with the HUGE increase in turnout for the younger demographic slice in 2018, and with the latest endorsements for Sanders, that the Emerson # is greatly under-represented.

Add to this the fundraising. And the social media hits.

'First Lady Jane' has a real nice ring to it.

And please, other folks, don't go looking for some last minute foreign or GOP interference when Bernie starts mopping up the primaries. The facts are in! Just gotta look at them like its 2020, not 2016.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:

...amen, Sister...

...we're 4 months out from the first vote and their trying like hell to convince us that it's all over for Bernie...

...fat fuckin' chance...we're on a roll baby, we're riding a movement...an anti-trump, America transforming, grand-slam movement that will swing the political pendulum from the current fascist hard Right to the patriotic Left...

...for decades people wanted change...now real, meaningful, significant change with Bernie is at hand...the American people are not going to pass up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to transform this country and make it work for the 99% once again...

...remember, the 1% and their shills are terrified of Bernie, they hate Bernie,


FDR,

“We had to struggle with the old enemies of peace—business and financial monopoly, speculation, reckless banking, class antagonism, sectionalism, war profiteering.

They had begun to consider the Government of the United States as a mere appendage to their own affairs. We know now that Government by organized money is just as dangerous as Government by organized mob.

Never before in all our history have these forces been so united against one candidate as they stand today. They are unanimous in their hate for me—and I welcome their hatred.”


...they are unanimous in their hatred for Bernie too -- and we should welcome their hatred...

...BERNIE...
