2016 Postmortem

David -
I want you to imagine eight years from now:
The minimum wage is a living wage and students are graduating college without the crushing debt stifling their ability to pursue the career of their dreams.
Health care is recognized as a right for every man, woman, and child, and the United States is leading the world in fighting climate change.
There is no bank that is too big to fail, no banker too powerful to jail, and weve leveled the playing field so that the billionaire class is no longer able to buy and sell our candidates and elections.
When that happens, they will say it all started tomorrow night in New Hampshire where we have overcome not just a forty point deficit in the polls, but the sneers of the corporate media and opposition from political elites and billionaire super PACs.
But we still have work to do. More than 3.5 million individual contributions, including yours, have helped power us to a slight lead in New Hampshire. But if were going to hold on and win tomorrow night, we desperately need you to add one more before midnight.
What we are doing on this campaign is building a political revolution large enough and powerful enough to take this country back from the billionaire class, and we are hopeful that tomorrow night will be a turning point for our movement.
Years from now, when you are looking back on everything weve accomplished together, we need to be able to say we did everything we could to win in New Hampshire, and thats why we need you to take action, one more time, today.

If we win tomorrow night, our victory will send a message, loudly and clearly, that ENOUGH is ENOUGH! This great nation and its government belong to all of the people, and not a handful of billionaires and their super PACs.
In solidarity,
Bernie Sanders
P.S. I don't go around asking millionaires and billionaires for money. Our campaign is powered by 3.5 million individual contributions made by people like you. Add one more $13 contribution before tomorrow nights New Hampshire primary.
If Bernie was asking the billionaire and millionaire class for money I'd not be supporting him today. I've given to him 4 times now and plan to give some more. madokie

(23 posts)IMO, Bernie Sanders is the only candidate in this race that's truly inspirational. I don't mean that from a partisan standpoint, but rather that he is the only person running that's offering a vision of the world that we can aspire to. Clinton's message is one of incremental change. None of the Republicans have really offered an idealism, as they tend to be playing a defensive game of repealing Obama's accomplishments and not letting another Democrat win the White House.
