Related: About this forumOne thing I loved about Bernie tonight which Hillary never admits is democrats have been destructive
too. Democrats are complicit with deregulation and trade. The democratic party played a vital role in the destruction of the middle class.

The media says he is a broken record, but what is really broken is our entire political system. That includes the mainstream media that has been consolidated down to a near monopoly situation.

The middle class is sinking, we need to look back at those who helped to destroy that most important segment of our country ... and not vote for them.

I appreciate what Bernie has been trying to do and I wish

Neoliberals and Neocons will be defeated and the sooner the
better.
