(24,010 posts)...supported Democrats all my long life, starting with volunteering for the JFK campaign when I was 16 yrs old, before I could even vote!
I support Bernie Sanders. He is the new FDR we have needed for four decades.
Hillary is as corrupt as she can be. She has taken huge amounts of money from the biggest, most corrupt corporations in the world. She will betray her supporters--women, African-Americans, Latinos, labor union members & other workers, and everybody else who has been fooled into believing she is a liberal, without looking back. You won't know what hit you, as she slams the door on all meaningful reform. She is a Corporatist with a capital K. She is also a militarist and a military profiteer.
But this year we have a choice--a candidate with an entirely clean record and a lifetime of supporting social and economic justice, and opposing all the forms of corruption which are destroying our country, and who not only has huge "trust" numbers in national polls, but also beats all Republicans in national polls, while Clinton has stinko "trust" numbers and loses to them!
It couldn't be clearer what we should do.
