I'm as proud as I can be right now. Of Bernie and my child.
I let my daughter stay up late to watch Bernie's speech, even though she's seven and doesn't know or care much about politics. She asked me if she could see it and I said yes. Then she blurted out, " Thank you Bernie! You like brown people." She is Filipina and is starting to realize that she looks different than most of her friends. And, I explained to her that trump doesn't like anybody, in particular brown people. So to echo my daughter, "Thank you Bernie." We can keep the revolution going by electing progressives to local and state offices as well as federal office. All you young people, vote! All you older people, vote! It is twilight zone stuff that trump even has a chance.
