The absolute front these people have! After cheating Mr Sanders out of the democratic nomination the DNC thought it appropriate to ask Bernie to help them raise money off his extensive and wide reaching email list!
Vermont Sen. Bernard Sanders was the ONLY guy in the front running that had a chance against the now President, yet the smug Democratic National Convention thought it wise to push down his chances and essentially do everything in their power to make sure their lady Clinton won the nomination…. That move alone could be seen as one of the main reasons we have the man child in the White House right now kicking his toys around and playing with the country (yes, I understand people also voted for that f*ckwit too).
Bernie and his team rewrote the book on fundraising, amazingly they pooled $218 million online from a record 2.8 million donors! That is unprecedented! They courted small donors and really stuck at their guns, not taking commercial support.
The DNC want to tap into this power and learn how Bern did this! Even though Bernie is supporting Rep. Keith Ellison to chair the DNC his team are staying tight lipped and showing no interest in sharing their experience.
Mother Jones reported (regarding the list which Bern manages through his non-profit Our Revolution):
“Our Revolution won’t be giving over the list,”
This was according to the group’s president, Jeff Weaver, Mr. Sanders‘ presidential campaign manager.
They went onto report:
“Sanders, for his part, has mostly stayed quiet about the future of the list, which one Democratic consultant referred to as his ‘precious,’”
DON’t DO IT BERNIE!
Isn’t it about time the country starts considering 3rd party candidates as serious options and we free ourselves from this 2 party bind?
What do you think?
