I experience daily amusement at the billionaire class and its media working overtime to ignore the fact that Bernie is at or near the top of every single poll in this race.
The LAST thing they want the general public to hear is that Bernie has been #1 in polls for young adults and Latino voters, and in just the last month has been #1 in Iowa, #1 in New Hampshire, #1 in Nevada and now #1 in California.
They are very, very upset...
Because it used to be that those were the people who determined winners and losers. It was just the way it always was. A bunch of rich people would get into a room, share expensive food and drinks, and determine who would have the resources needed to win a presidential primary.
Those days are over, and they HATE it.
They hate that working people now have the power to come together and collectively ensure campaigns like Bernie's — campaigns that actually fight for them — can out-raise them.
And the billionaire class wants to take that power back to ensure Democrats nominate someone who will represent their interests, as if they don't have it good enough already.
Well, we can't let them. We have to keep fighting. We have to keep exercising OUR power. Because if we do, Bernie is going to win. So I am asking:
There's always been obscenely wealthy people in this country who have extraordinary power, but they won't have the ability to pull the strings here once we understand that we actually hold the true power.
We build this power through volunteering, through talking to your friends and family, and through your contributions.
So if you can chip in $2.70 today, it would mean a lot to Bernie's campaign and to our movement. Use this link:
