The Political Revolution: Year One - Bernie Sanders & the Campaign

The Political Revolution: Year One — Medium

Senator Bernie Sanders kicked off his presidential campaign in Burlington, Vermont in May, 2015. This weekend, the political revolution turns one year old.

This is a “Hallmark” Holiday , a period of time that has no important distinction. The movement for progress and change is far older and will continue well past the final contests of the 2016 primary season, but on behalf of Hilary Hess, Fred Guerrier, Eric Elofson, Chris Dilts, the rest of our creative team, and myself, I’d like to present you a set of pictures that span the previous 365 days of this campaign.

Thank you for being a part of this journey.

It really throws the nasty cynicism that has gotten a foothold in our society into stark relief. With all those with so much power and so much wealth, living off the fat of other people's labor, joining forces in attempt to block him at every turn and consign him to irrelevance, Bernie has successfully persevered (as have his supporters) like no candidate I have ever seen in my life. It really puts to shame those armchair warriors who mock and belittle him just for grins from the comfort of anonymity.
