"Coming out of last night's results, in which we won Rhode Island but came up short in four others, I want to pose to you three things that I know to be true:
Young people the future of our country continue to vote for our campaign in overwhelming numbers. It's remarkable, and honestly quite humbling.
When we compete in open primaries that encourage the participation of independents, new voters, and young people, we do very well.
What remains in front of us is a very narrow path to the nomination. In the weeks to come we will be competing in a series of states that are very favorable to us including California. Just like after March 15 when we won 8 of the next 9 contests we are building tremendous momentum going into the convention.
That is the reality of where we are right now, and why we are going to fight for every delegate and every vote. It is why I am going to continue to speak to voters in every state about the very important issues facing our country. Our country cannot afford to stop fighting for a $15 minimum wage, to overturn Citizens United, or to get universal health care for every man, woman, and child in America.
I'm asking you to help me continue to lead these fights. We have an FEC deadline on Saturday and another primary on Tuesday. Every vote we earn and every delegate we win is a testament to our ideas, to our movement, to our political revolution, and our willingness to take this campaign for the Democratic nomination all the way to the convention.
Will you contribute to help us continue to speak to voters about the incredibly important issues facing our country? Your support right now before two big deadlines will send an unmistakable message that our voices will still be heard.

There is no doubt in my mind that what you and I have done together up to this point is nothing short of historic. And I know that if we are going to work together, we will continue making history.
In solidarity,
Bernie Sanders"

Remember - they accuse you of doing whatever it is they are doing. Deflection.

(55,981 posts)They want us to acquiesce to power like they do. They underestimate us, underestimate the power of the People.
We will overthrow the powerful oligarchy.

(12,471 posts)They require us to pay for their bailouts, and have to pay those who support them lots of money.
Then we don't have to donate to the candidates. Their corporate keepers will take care of them.

Seriously, give it to the poor if it is burning that much of a hole in your pocket. A food pantry or homeless shelter would be very grateful for the help.

wildeyed
(11,243 posts)less than 1% chance of winning the nom, and he is hitting up his supporters like they are an ATM the next day? After most have given more than they can probably afford, already. Who is mean here? I just point out that if you want to give your money away, there might be better causes to support. But it is your money, do what you want.
