Another payday, and my man is still out there delivering the word. For me that means focusing on people, not policy. It means being a mensch, not a wonk.
For decades the public has complained about the quality of politicians. They are seen as crooks and liars and the morally challenged- and some of them are. The idea of corruption in politics has become so commonplace that there is an entire industry based on it- the self-described “chattering class”. They claim that title like something they are proud of. They should be embarrassed by it.
Right now there is an alternative to all that crap. Every day that Bernie is out there, speaking out against the hypocrisy and the greed and the politicians who are bought and paid for is another day that I’m willing to kick in some cash to help him.
It’s not much, but it’s working.
