For Those Who Still Support Bernie
Raise up your candle in solidarity. It's not over til it's over, despite what anyone else says.
I can think of no other candidate except maybe Al Gore in recent history who has deserved the support of this party yet was scorned by so many... (And if anyone wants, they can see what kind of fan of Al Gore I was).
Bernie, if you are listening, I appreciate everything you've done. I'm with you until the end. I'm proud of the campaign you've run. And despite everything else, I, and everyone else, knows where you stand and what you've done for this country. I'm proud to be with you.

So we can focus on defeating the GOP in November!
And I will continue to do so.
Yes I know, unless outside circumstances intervene he is not going to win. However, every day of his presence in this race has highlighted the insular corruption of money and influence trading in the party and that has value.
It's also shown the insular corruption of the mainstream media. They circled the wagons and attacked Bernie relentlessly when he became a threat. It showed just how far the establishment would go to protect itself and that also has tremendous value.
He needs to fight for every single delegate available right into the convention. No lack of Bern here.
That shit never works.
and after the tone you set with the dozens of threads you've put up during this primary, I'm truly enjoying watching your reaction to the fact that it really is over.

May the best candidate for the people emerge victorious...
No one is being badgered and insulted to support Bernie. We unite behind the ideas we support and the courageous man of integrity who picked up the mantle of leadership to give voice to those ideas to people all across the country. Hell yes I support Bernie continuing this fight!
As Bernie has said to me today in an email:
"Coming out of last night's results, in which we won Rhode Island but came up short in four others, I want to pose to you three things that I know to be true:
Young people – the future of our country – continue to vote for our campaign in overwhelming numbers. It's remarkable, and honestly quite humbling.
When we compete in open primaries that encourage the participation of independents, new voters, and young people, we do very well.
What remains in front of us is a very narrow path to the nomination. In the weeks to come we will be competing in a series of states that are very favorable to us – including California. Just like after March 15 – when we won 8 of the next 9 contests – we are building tremendous momentum going into the convention.
That is the reality of where we are right now, and why we are going to fight for every delegate and every vote. It is why I am going to continue to speak to voters in every state about the very important issues facing our country. Our country cannot afford to stop fighting for a $15 minimum wage, to overturn Citizens United, or to get universal health care for every man, woman, and child in America.
I'm asking you to help me continue to lead these fights. We have an FEC deadline on Saturday and another primary on Tuesday. Every vote we earn and every delegate we win is a testament to our ideas, to our movement, to our political revolution, and our willingness to take this campaign for the Democratic nomination all the way to the convention.
Will you contribute to help us continue to speak to voters about the incredibly important issues facing our country? Your support right now before two big deadlines will send an unmistakable message that our voices will still be heard.
There is no doubt in my mind that what you and I have done together up to this point is nothing short of historic. And I know that if we are going to work together, we will continue making history.
In solidarity,
Bernie Sanders"
Things are only getting started!
And I'm still pissed.
can get over the burn and stop being pissed. Just saying.
You can't kill an idea.
Bernie I stand with YOU!
Cosigning your post, and happily donated again today!
Anything could happen in this election. It definitely isn't over.
Nobody quits before the end of a game in sports, so why should we? Bullshit on that self-defeating nonsense.
Marconi plays the mambo,
Listen to the radio
Don't you remember --
We built this city!
It's over. Why are people still circling the drain?
Bernie Strong!!!
My husband, my sons and their wives (6) my mom and myself are all with Bernie until the end and beyond.
#neverHillary
Bernie!beyond!
... not just for Bernie Sanders, but for
the movement he has been leading
the ordinary people whose interests are being represented
and all those who have been inspired and mobilized to join this effort
especially the young people who will carry this movement forward!
This political revolution did not begin with Bernie Sanders.
He has nobly carried it forward, and it will not end with his campaign.
To fulfill the promise of a government Of, By, and For The People
... requires all of us to carry it forward.
And if that means parting ways with this party, then fine.
and I'm in it until the end. I just don't see a path to victory anymore. With the way this bullshit delegate system works, even if Hillary loses in California, it could still push her over the magic number.
To all of us outside the Matrix of manufactured consent. for Bernie.
for the neocon Hillary supporter who defended banning late term abortions on this site today when I got here. These types should quit calling themselves liberal.
We still have Primaries and the Convention to look forward to!
