California & New York, two of America's most liberal & progressive states

Well if California & New York really want to live up to those monikers than they really have no other choice but to support Bernie Sanders and cast their votes (the majority) in his favor. He is far more progressive & liberal than Senator Clinton, and according to so many here at DU these two states more than any other are heralding the coming true progressive revolution. Else these two states could move closer to looking an awful lot like their Southern brethren that voted in lockstep with Clinton. And we have been told to wait and see what happens when the primaries move out of the "South" and onto the "real liberal & progressive" centers of America. Well, we will all be waiting and eagerly watching to see the humble beginning of the revolution that we all believe is coming. So don't disappoint us!

This needs to be a statement win, otherwise I will believe that we as a country have a lot more work to do if this is the closest we can get to a true progressive revolution.
