The Nation Tells us Why We Need Bernie Sanders as Our Next President

This is  a must read for any rational voter who makes their voting decisions for themselves. An excerpt:

Voters can trust Sanders because he doesn’t owe his political career to the financial overlords of the status quo. Freed from these chains of special interest, he can take the bold measures that the country needs. Sanders alone proposes to break up the too-big-to-fail banks; to invest in public education, from universal pre-K to tuition-free public college; to break the power of the insurance and pharmaceutical cartels with Medicare for All reforms. He alone proposes to empower workers with a living wage. He alone stands ready to put Americans to work rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure, and to confront climate change by making the United States a leader in renewable energy. His audacious agenda proves that money in politics doesn’t widen debate; rather, it narrows the range of possibility. While Sanders understands this, we fear that his chief rival for the Democratic nomination does not.

I hope you'll take the time to read this essay from The Nation:

Hillary Clinton said that it is O.K. to ban Muslims from Israel by building a WALL, but not O.K. to do so in the U.S. We must be vigilant!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 2, 2016

Approximately 18% of Israeli citizens are Muslims.

No wonder Donald Trump has been in bankruptcy 9 times  and lost 75% of his inherited fortune. 


The referenced wall is actually on Israeli occupied Palestinian land and has been declared illegal under international law.


Hillary's history on Israel bears review.
