Vote for the one you don't want or the one you don't want will win.

This is why I vote for Bernie.

Because he's not business as usual.

Everyone else will continue the corporate agenda. More for themselves and less for everyone else.

Even Clinton.

Even Obama.

It's six of these or half a dozen of the other.

People say that they're different, yet we have corporate education run amok, we're talking about slashing Social Security and Medicare to prop up the wealthy, we're continuing wars for profit, our politicians say Wall St. can regulate itself, that unrestricted capitalism benefits society, that unfair and anti-union trade agreements will actually help us, that the wealthy create jobs, that 50% youth African American unemployment and 51% of all Americans now making less than 30k a year are acceptable outcomes of our economic policy, that minimum wage shouldn't be a living wage, that college education should not be free for all regardless of income or background, that fracking and off-shore drilling is ok in the name of money, and that MORE of this thinking will only lead to better results.

Call me stupid, idealistic, call me what you will. But, the game is rigged and I believe it's time we do something about it.

This is why I vote for Bernie Sanders.

At least then, even if all else fails, we did the right thing.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
