Read this this a.m. and thought it made very good sense:
"Sure, many progressive old-timers are drawn to his maverick run, as are a cadre of experienced organizers, but the driving force of "Bernie for President" is coming from two encouraging sources: (1) An emerging rainbow of young people dismayed and disgusted by the greed and pettiness of today's "leaders" who are restructuring America into a plutocracy that callously sweeps the crying needs of the declining middle class, the poor, the planet, and the common good under the rug of laissez-faire Kochism; and (2) a potentially game-changing group of working class mad-as-hellers who had disengaged from a governing system that has deliberately ignored working stiffs or, worse, cynically used them as political pawns to be demonized and dis-empowered."
It also occurs to me that Sanders and Trump both represent Washington outsiders, and it's clear that the middle class -- both republican and democrat -- is thoroughly disgusted with Washington DC and all it's dysfunctional elected officials."
It's about time!!! Down with Amerika Inc.!!
