After Bernie ended his bid for the presidency on July 12 it seemed as if the Political Revolution was over but fortunately it’s not. It will continue on in form of Our Revolution which will elect candidates, from school boards to Congress, to fight for universal health care, making college free, raising the minimum wage, and fighting income inequality among other issues.
Our Revolution’s goals are to Revitalize American Democracy, Empower Progressives, and to elevate the Political Consciousness of America.
The organization will use resources from Bernie’s presidential campaign to fund Our Revolution candidates via email lists and other resources. The Senator will also probably be used to campaign for these candidates as he is popular across America. With these type of resources, we can effect real change in America.
Through this, we will continue the struggle for equality and fairness in America. It will hopefully end the corruption and ineffectiveness by our current politicians. And one day the organization can produce someone like Bernie to run for President.
The official launch of Our Revolution will be at 9:00 PM EST and 6:00 PM PST tonight. You can watch Bernie’s live stream here: ourrevolution.com
