The Clintons have been persecuted for decades for political reasons. The other side will continue to try and get mud to stick to her. I would vote for Bernie and I'm glad he is getting serious consideration. Even if he is crushed by the right wing machine his message needs to be heard. Win or lose he will be remembered as an American hero. One day there will be a revolution. One day the moneyed elite will wish they had allowed political reform instead of facing the violence of a real revolution. Living behind walls counting your money is no way to live.
The erosion of America could continue for centuries without real revolution. But I believe we'll face such crises in the next 5 decades that will cause serious upheaval - disease, economic division, famine, poverty, sea level rise, natural disasters, terrorism - these are things that can cripple a nation and cause violence.
The circus that is this primary season reminds me of rats fighting on a sinking ship. The ship is steered by the corrupt system of our corporate-owned political system and has crashed into the rocks. Greed wins and we all lose.
