Many of you aren't religious, so please forgive me for recalling my roots as a preacher and starting us off with a simple verse of scripture.
"The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil."
- 1 Timothy 6:10, The New Testament of the Bible
Clinton's refusal to release the transcripts of her speeches to Goldman Sachs was the straw that broke the camel's back for me. Her indignant and irrational excuses made no sense — particularly in light of the reports stating that the transcripts would ruin her campaign and made her sound like an executive at the company.
I'll start where I left off — the root of all of this is the love of money. In this campaign, Bernie Sanders, with a ragtag group of misfits, proved to the world that another way exists. He has created a blueprint for us on how we build a political movement without the money from billionaire class and their special interests.
In my heart, I believe we are on the brink of something very special. It isn't going to be the presidency of Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump either. It's going to be what those of us who've seen a better way do next.
Don't believe what anyone tells you — the ball is in our hand and we have more power than progressive people have had in a very long time in this country. I will fight for Bernie Sanders until he is no longer running for president.
After that, this will be my last election as a Democrat. I'm moving on and hope you do, too.

Mocking would-be friends is a good way to turn them back into enemies.
I have so many friends I grew up with in NY (Democrats, that’s why I left), who are saying the same exact thing. This is going to be a bloodbath. Trump is going to have the mandate to end all mandates. In other words, a YUUUUGGGEEE Mandate.
Oh dear. Another brain full of mush has gone all wobbly. Now he is part of something wonderful - echoes of moondust, fairies and good weed. Somebody please put a thought in this weasel’s brain.
At first, I thought that this guy had matured, that he had finally recognized the immaturity and bankruptcy of liberal ideology. Then I read on and found out that he is merely rejecting Hillary in favor of someone who is even more of a kooky leftist.
I suspect that the “wiring” in the brains of many leftists is crossed—that whenever logic hits their brains, they short-circuit. And, conversely, the more illogical something is, the more sense it makes to them. In other words, the brains of liberals are just plain malfunctioning.
She has made tens of millions of dollars doing speaking gigs
Bill has made even more
They have Billions in their foundations
She has her Senate and Sec Of State retirements
Yet she still is so greedy and tone deaf that she would insist that they she be paid the maximum amount allowed by law as a salary form her Presidential campaign funds - regardless of of bad that looks to voters.
It's really weird.
“The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil.”
- 1 Timothy 6:10, The New Testament of the Bible
Most people on the left quote that Bible verse wrong.
That’s about all I read that sounded good.
Does he know socialist try to manipulate religion and use to suit their goals. Communist ban it. Their really some difference between the two.
But religion is not the Church.
I can’t stop laughing!
He, apparently, blew through a lot of donation money. Then asked for more.
If he moved from the Democrats, he did not move far.
DEMOCRATIC?

True. I should have caught that.
Be careful what you crow about not being, because you may be only one step away of falling into just that, while Satan points and laughs. The bible warns about just this.
Oh noes. Fake black guy has his knickers in a twist
he will fall in line on election day
Yes! This is a clickbait headline

Yep. All for the love of money.
I have a kook relative who explained to me how ‘progressive’ Oregon is as a state. He is a retired doc who now lives on a frikkin’ ‘ashram’. I asked him at our family gathering what he was ‘progressing TO’......blank, vapid stare. Then he said.....’peace’.
Progs always love to use the Bible....even tho they hate it.

Well, you'll find a good home among Republicans, who are known for scrupulous honesty, God-fearing-ness, selflessness dedication to good, and unattatchment to material trifles like money.
Well said!
Psst, hey, Bernie supporter, Trump won the Republican nomination for $54 million, Bernie’s spent more than $185 million.
Just a tip: Keep going. You’re almost there.
