How easily the so-called 'left-wing' media betrays actual progressive values.

You'd think media like 'The Nation', 'Daily Kos', TalkingPointsMemo, The Young Turks, and 'Media Matters' would support progressive causes, and hence the political revolution that Bernie Sanders calls for. I certainly think that because it makes sense as the only true and sane way to fix our country's many problems (not to mention address global warming).

But no - entities like this are full of Hillary Clinton supporters, DNC partisans, and establishment operatives who back her.

Let's be clear - Hillary Clinton **is** the establishment candidate and is about as right-wing as you can get. So, supporting her is in-effect a complete betrayal of everything a progressive movement calls for (living wage for all Americans, voting rights restored to all Americans, not just one color, or one gender, or for non-human entities like corporations; are you listening Elizabeth Warren?)

Let's also be clear - I will only support Bernie Sanders for President because what he call for is in line with what I believe.

  • Warren running with Clinton as her running mate - no I will not support that.
  • Heck Bernie Sanders with Clinton as her running mate - no I will not support that either.
  • Warren with Sanders (or Sanders with Warren) - that I will support.
