Mr. Sanders Goes to Washington

I'm borrowing from Hollywood tonight but this clip reminds me so much of this election that I wanted to post it as a thread. LiberalElite posted a piece tonight about the Nevada Caucus where Jon Ralston said the machine won tonight.

It immediately brought to mind the clip below and actually the entire Mr. Smith Goes to Washington movie. It's one of my favorite movies along with To Kill a Mockingbird. Whenever I get down in the dumps about politics I think about this movie and it helps remind me of what I'm fighting for. I dedicate it to all the Sanders supporters at DU tonight.
