Bernie Sanders " political revolution " is not fading in our " Democracy Spring "
Rhode Island voters should be proud of themselves for honoring " socialist " Democrat Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont with a strong, " surprise " victory in the Democrat primary late in April.
I was at the Sanders rally in Roger Williams Park on that beautiful " Democracy Spring " Sunday before primary day. With those 7000 or more people I too was " feeling the Bern ". Bernie Sanders recent " surprise " victory in Indiana makes it clear to the political establishment that the " political revolution " is not fading away.
President Bill Clinton showed up at the CCRI campus in Warwick to campaign for his wife," Wall St. Hillary ". Oddly enough I just read that the CCRI Day Care Center there will be shut down in order to give office space to that magical job creator Goldman Sachs. Hillary is great friend of Goldman Sachs and Governor Gina Raimondo is a great friend of Hillary Clinton.
To be sure, these neo- Democrats are not great friends of the American working class.No wonder fed up white working class people are listening to - and sad to say, supporting- the right wing demagogue Donald Trump.
In front of that Temple to Music, by that sparkling lake in Roger Williams Park, Bernie Sanders, speaking about a " future to believe in ", seemed much like a Normal Rockwell " American Scene " painting.
