(13,685 posts)And that means Bernie, and we, have already won.
He has inspired so many people, that on a daily basis I sit in awe of what is transpiring across the electoral landscape. I have never seen anything like this. In 2008 I saw the people come out of the woodwork for Obama, but that was well after he was nominated. Now, before the first vote, the crowds are even larger!
Bernie is expressing the hopes and dreams of so many. Hopes and dreams that have been heretofore crushed by the 'realities' of establishment politics that treated us as children, saying:
""That's all so nice and wonderful sounding, but NO, you can't have any of that.""
Guess what? We can have it. We are the richest country in the world and we can afford health care for all, a clean environment, justice and equality, and a future we can believe in.
