(9,314 posts)if he wins the Presidency. I just listened to the town hall meeting on Fox. After boycotting that network for 15 years, since the 2000 election, I broke that boycott to listen to Bernie Sanders speak. I believe if he wins, this Country will take remarkable strides forward in achieving that which we want and need. You know the list, as you have heard him speak. And specifically you know he is against fracking, as should we all be.
The accumulation of wealth should not be the source of one's happiness. It is that sense of well being in knowing that all is right in my world, as well as the world of my children, my neighbors and my fellow human beings across the ocean (and all of our critters) that leads to sustained happiness. And when Senator Sanders in sitting in the Oval Office, we will all have ripples of hope.
And I can't wait to read the threads you write THEN, even though those you give us now are wonderful.
