BERNIE: He's got it right

This is what Bernie Sanders is trying to do for us.

“Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” and “We the people, in order to form a more perfect union” are probably the cornerstone words of our nation. We were bold and brave when we broke from the Monarchy of England. We had somewhere else to live and pursue that dream.

The movement that Bernie is leading is THIS EXACT SAME pursuit. The only difference is that now we are fighting back against an Oligarchy designed and protected by status quo politicians and the wealthy. Also, this time we have nowhere to go. Our only alternative is to change the system to work for the people.

The colonists were bold and brave and found the courage to break from the status quo. This absolute belief in a better life is what made our nation. The colonists had no idea it would work or that they would survive as a society.

Bernie is right, this is a political revolution — for the people and by the people. Do we remain within the confines of our Oligarchy or be bold and PURSUE A MORE PERFECT UNION?

JERRY HUGO
