With Tulsi endorsing Bernie - it's time for the others to come out of the woodwork.

There couldn't be a more stark contrast between these 2 candidates.

Either get out there and endorse Bernie or enjoy watching the Democratic Party get pulled further to the right.

It's time to make a statement about which direction you want this country to go in.

To me your silence in this primary = a Hillary endorsement, so you might as well publicly endorse her...

but if it's not an endorsement for Hillary & you secretly want Bernie to win, the time is NOW and NOT after Tuesday.

Bernie is taking on the establishment and the well oiled, well funded Clinton machine.
Do not look back in 2 years when Wall Street & big money continue to destroy our country & fracking continues to destroy our earth and then think, I should have fought for Bernie.
The moment is now.

However, that didn't keep Robert Reich from endorsing Obama in 2008 and Sanders now. Considering he's known the Clinton's longer than just about anyone, that's a BFD. The fact that Biden and Warren have yet to endorse is a pretty clear diss as well, but not enough. I hopr some formal endorsements happen tomorrow so they might influence Tuesday's primaries.

EW.

I wish she'd come out tonight and just say, ef it...I want Bernie to win, so I'm endorsing him and just do it. Dammit. It would actually make the news too.

Of all the lily-livered cowards who fear the "wrath of the Clinton machine", EW disappoints me the most. Why shrink from the challenge now? When we NEED you the most.

PEACE
LOVE
BERNIE

who will just go with the front runner unless/until things change. Same happened with Obama.
