Hillary Clinton Sets Back the Cause of Women's Rights

I have heard all the arguments as to why I should vote for Hillary Clinton because I am a woman. I have heard that Bernie Sanders supporters are nothing but lily white men. Guess what?

Then I'm going to present an argument why the meme is dangerous for any coalition on the American left to internalize.

Every day, people will be bombarded with these messages. Surrender Dorothy, you have no chance.

The aim is to cut off donations and votes for Bernie.

W00t! Morning Joe Starts To Get It: because money, of course

Too funny. Trump's pals Joe and Mika finally clue in to Bernie. Because of his fundrasing prowess. The corporatists really only understand money, don't they? Morans.

Here's the clip - 14 minutes long. It's priceless to watch corporatist conservatives trying to understand Bernie. Dazed and amazed not by Bernie's ideas or his integrity, but by the people's money.
