Hillary's Corporate Democrats Taking Down Bernie Sanders
Before announcing for President in the Democratic Primaries, Bernie Sanders told the people he would not run as an Independent and be like Nader -- invoking the politically-bigoted words "being a spoiler." Well, the spoiled corporate Democrats in Congress and their consultants are mounting a "stop Bernie campaign." They believe he'll "spoil" their election prospects.
Sorry Bernie, because anybody who challenges the positions of the corporatist, militaristic, Wall Street-funded Democrats, led by Hillary Clinton, in the House and Senate -- is by their twisted definition, a "spoiler." It doesn't matter how many of Bernie's positions are representative of what a majority of the American people want for their country.
What comes around goes around. Despite running a clean campaign, funded by small donors averaging $27, with no scandals in his past and with consistency throughout his decades of standing up for the working and unemployed people of this country, Sanders is about to be Hillaried. Her Capitol Hill cronies have dispatched Congressional teams to Iowa.

he is itching to see bernie lose so in his lifetime, he will see the birth of a true and sustainable progressive party. i get that, but bernie is not going to be taken down. we are not going to be taken down.
bernie will win this and take the dem party back from the third way thieves and back to tru progressivism.
