I would hope something like this would cause a huge backlash -- riots, etc. but?

He saw to it that the entire state of Pennsylvania became targeted for fracking.

Tens of thousands of people, if not hundreds of thousands of people, will have to do without any guarantee of clean drinking water. The soil is damaged, probably forever.

But don't sweat this "small stuff." For on the plus side, Rendell now has a controlling interest in a Texas energy firm.

So it was not at all for naught!

So far they have sent out 2 to start the conversation.

I remember Rendell campaigning for fracking. He stands for most everything I am against.

they don't know the power of the internet! This story will be spread far and wide via FACEBOOK, TWITTER, Forums, Blogs, Instagram, etc... They have no idea the Pandora Bix they're going to open. Within minutes, the streets will be filled with Bernie supporters...

Then TPTB will bring out their militarized police departments. There's a reason they militarized them. "Terrorism" was just their excuse. Now they can control the masses anywhere, anytime.

Biden has been rejected not once, but twice by the voters in this country! If HRH can't beat Bernie, what makes them think 2 time loser Biden will?

The Political Revolution is going to happen sooner rather than later I think.

PEACE
LOVE
BERNIE
