Give "em" Hell Bernie
http://www.salon.com/2015/07/11/america_is_ready_for_socialism_massive_majorities_back_bernie_sanders_on_the_issues_and_disdain_donald_trump/I recently read an enlightening book-
By Milton Myers written in the post WW2 era called "They Thought they were Free" It is about how the average German citizen was sucked into being a Nazi, So you ask what's that have to do with anything? Amazingly quite a lot, As when one asks how did Americans get sucked into being worked like slaves for corporate profits, Or asks how all our rights and benefits of being citizens of America have been put in danger of being dissolved by politicians in the pockets of those same corporations, Or asks how did we get into all these wars for empirical gain , All while the citizens of America just go along with the propaganda being foisted upon them, As was done in WW2 to the Germans, It all comes down to conform or die, If you speak out you will die or be marginalized if you act out you will be arrested and imprisoned, if you refuse to participate in the scam you will be relegated to poverty, There by the PTB keep the citizens in abject fear of losing what little one has, putting children in danger of homelessness starving or worse. This is life in America today ,You owe your soul to the corporate store. I say get up stand up stand up for what is your right, A life without fear.
A great tune for Bernie campaign
Would be by Jimmy Cliff " The harder they come, The harder they fall" I have the album but am not able to download it or anything else to these threads for some reason ,So if you give a listen and if you agree and are more savvy than I about how to download it please do, I know you can find it on Amazon probably youtube also, To me it gives voice to Bernie's platform, I think you'll agree if you like reggae music.
OK now I'm officially scared-
I read this article and saw all my TPP etc. fears come to light. http://www.commondreams.org/news/2015/07/01/tisa-exposed-holy-grail-leaks-reveals-detailed-plot-corporate-takeover , am I overreacting , I think not.
I would like to start a local Bernie group-
I have been considering starting a Bernie group in Petaluma/Santa Rosa ca. Area I have looked around local and so far I've found nothing, If your out there PM me , if you are interested in starting a local group PM me , If your a Bernie supporter in the local area ie: Sonoma county Ca. Let me know, Add a comment or PM me.
Thought I'd share this -
Here it is , good article at link in post http://www.democraticunderground.com/10026917772
A note to all politicians-
RE: Campaign donations, Really you have to put some more thought into timing, I for one am on a limited income paid once a month so I pay my bills get food count the few dollars I have to spend and make my 10.00 donation to Bernie maybe one more cause if it is important , I would love to do more but nowadays it just isn't doable , I'm sure there are a few million folks out there in similar situations, So sending hyperbolic ads really just becomes annoying as heck, please cut the drama pitch it is unseemly.
