Friends -
First we won the popular vote in Iowa. Then we won the New Hampshire primary. And now we have won the Nevada caucus.
Let me first thank the people of Nevada for their support. We put together a multi-racial, multi-generational coalition across the state that will win not only in Nevada, but all across this country.
No other campaign has a grassroots movement like we do, which is a large reason why we're gonna win this election.
But the truth is that our most challenging days are still ahead, and Super Tuesday is just 9 days away.
We need a lot of donations in order to compete in all 14 states that vote on Super Tuesday, which is why I am asking you right now:
We are going to win across the country because the American people are sick and tired of a corrupt administration that is undermining American democracy. They are sick and tired of a government based on greed and lies.
It is time for an administration which is based on the principles of economic justice, social justice, racial justice, and environmental justice.
Now Trump and his friends think they are going to win this election by dividing our people up based on the color of our skin, or where we are born, or based on our religion or our sexual orientation.
We are going to win because we are doing exactly the opposite: We are bringing our people together.
What we are doing on this campaign is building a movement based on an agenda that works for the working people of this country, not the one percent.
We are fighting for a Medicare for All, single-payer system that grants health care as a right, not a privilege.
We are fighting for a Green New Deal, which will create 20 million good paying jobs as we transform our energy system away from fossil fuels and toward energy efficiency.
We are fighting to end a broken and racist criminal justice system.
We are fighting to cancel all student debt and make public colleges and universities tuition free.
We are fighting for comprehensive immigration reform so that our country no longer demonizes the undocumented.
Brothers and sisters, together we must create a government and economy that works for all of us. But we are currently up against some well-funded opponents who don't want our movement to succeed.
The only way we will be able to take them on is from lots of people making small donations. That is how we are funding this campaign, and that is why I am asking:
As long as we stand together, there is nothing we cannot accomplish. Thank you so much for being a part of this campaign.
In solidarity,
Bernie Sanders
