Never before has it been so abundantly clear how flawed and corrupt the system has become, or to what ends those within it will go to fight the vestiges of might bring about real positive change.

The first indications of this came when so many declined to enter the primary race, so many who even if they could not win in this election cycle, could have gotten their names out to a wider audience and gained recognition for future election cycles. And not just out of fear of being seen as being opposed to the Clintonian political machine, but also from not wanting to be seen on the same stage as it for the greater fear of owing it a favor, and hens owing it fealty. The calls for you to "tone it down" are not purely from being seen as opposition, but also from a twisted sense of ownership over your own victories for having made them in the presence of the Clintonian machine. From the purely function perspective, you playing the role of the loyal opposition was in that fashion and to that extent being "useful", by exceeding that imaginary mandate from Clintonian machine, has earned you the faux anger of those that make up its workings.

I declare it is or will soon be time for you to run as an independent, not from the idea of wanting to destroy the Democrat party, but from the desperate need to save it. The Democrat party is underestimating its enemy with such a delusional fervor, and don't misunderstand, it is not the also underestimated republicans to which I refer, The true enemy of the democrats is much closer. The rift between the generations is merely the latest sign of this enemy. The American political identity, dangerously teeters over the precipice of fracturing, while the political system remains very much binary. The Democrats so drunk from tools of their own demise can not see the danger about themselves.

The growing tumor of campaign financing can no longer be so easily cut out, No amount of policy, negotiation, justifiable outrage, or reason can touch this problem, left alone the body of our democracy will die, our only chances now are within the unreasoned elixir of a poison, We must shrink this amoral growth before we can remove it. And much like a spoiled petulant child under your charge, refusing to take their medicine, you must administer this vile concoction, Even as they scream and yell, and threaten, and lash out, you must administer this vile concoction.

Bernie, you must run in the general election, never before have the stakes been so high, this election is no longer about democrats or republicans, its about the very foundations of our democracy. You may not win this election, but that is no longer the goal, you must rather be the campaign heard around the world, embarrass them, anger them, frighten them. You need not even ask for peoples votes, but you must be next to democracies bedside, you must read to our sick democracy the fiction of that which may be only.
