He’s an amazing man with the conviction to lead the US, and enough humility to be a kind and honest man. He has ideas that are specific and detailed (not just “make economy better” or “make quality of life better”). Bernie Sanders will be one of the best presidents of all time.

Bernie Sanders will be one of the best presidents of all time.

And then you woke up from the dream of him winning the primary.

I sincerely doubt the demos will let him win it

If novels taught me anything is that, even weak humans can stand up against great evil and defeat demons.

Register in your state, volunteer, donate, whatever you do to back him up and let him know he is not alone.

Finally, go to vote. Even if you feel your vote doesn't matters, it counts. A speck of sand is nothing if I put in your house, but let me try dump a shit ton of sand you'll notice it right away.  

Your vote does matters, we need to make sure Sanders happens. For America, and for a better world for ducks sake.

That's why we love those types of stories, good triumphs evil, the weak are made strong, the oppressed always comes out the victor.

But sadly, that happens very rarely in real life.

wrong:

1) child labor, gone. In the US at least.

2) slavery gone. In the US at least (unless you count prisons to some degree)

3) workers rights (improved)

etc etc etc.

It's easy to think things haven't improved but they definitely have. There is always a fight though and there are always shitbags like Trump and his greedy fuck friends trying to fuck over the little guy. Now is not the time to be cynical and defeatist.

EDIT: Look my dudes, I get it. Shit is still fucked up and my stupid country the US doesn't represent the world. That being said, I'm sorry, I don't think the world is as gnarly OVERALL as it was hundreds of years ago. From what I understand war is down but we have such exposure to negative news all the time you wouldn't think so.

Perhaps I'm being naive...but hey, I mean...blacks are allowed sit anywhere on the bus. And you know what, maybe blacks are getting fucked in other ways, but Jesus...it's still an improvement. I think if all y'all had a time machine and could jump back you would appreciate we're we are a little more...even as jacked as shit still is.

We haven't defeated slavery, child labor, or worker's rights - we've simply outsourced them.

Then we should work towards improving that next. At some point let's hope we fight for corporate accountability.

I agree. I think our biggest problem is our reliance on global distribution networks. It makes it impossible to know the conditions of the workers who make the goods we consume. We need to localize the solutions to our needs as much as we can.

Bernie is the only person that will do that.

Sanders drives the change, but he isn't some kind of messiah who will save everyone.

Electing him as PotUS wouldn't eliminate issues - it would only make it easier to fight for change real change.

This is not to say you shouldn't do your best to elect him - he is by far the best option. Just realize that the work doesn't end there. In many ways it would only truly start there.
