Some wise words indeed. We need to share of these great ideas. We need to come together to create more unity in the USA.

Bernie Sanders fully embraced BLM and made criminal justice reform central to his campaign

You're talking about during the general election? Most bernie or busters like me will be doing just what you're talking about if Bernie isn't the nominee. Many voters are yet to vote in the primaries. I will be voting for someone who can't win and won't be allowed on a debate stage - Jill Stein. I'll vote down ticket Berniecrats. I agree with you Eddie. We have to stand up at some point and say enough is enough!

Yep, it's coming... The est has been blinded by their own greed. They don't realize they have hit the tilting point. This is actually uniting the races and bringing issues forward that aren't dealt with or talked about much. The game of divide and conquer is falling apart, because there is a common fight. It has brought light to some of the inequalities that other races/minorities have been facing in the past.

Agreed. A 3rd party vote will likely be a stronger message than a blank spot as it can potentially threaten the disliked duo if it gets high enough.

I agree, I have always believed that a non-vote is self-defeating. We have needed a working-class American party to challenge the Corporate owned Left/Right Establishment. The Establishment has not and will not do for the American majority. It is time to unseat the establishment, and emplace those that are truly concerned with the welfare of the many and not the few.

Great idea ... a third party works great with the electoral college. If nobody wins the 270 electoral it (in theory) goes to the House of Rep to pick the president ... and at the local level about half of the state reps run unopposed because nobody even bothers to run ... and you think the solution is to make a protest vote for president that could toss the election to a fascist ... do it wisely for it might just be the last vote you ever cast ... Maybe you should spend your time working at the grass roots level uniting people in your community around your ideas instead of acting like a five year old who sits on the see/saw by themselves because no one will play with them ...

People who do not participate in the primary empower those who do as "their" representitives by default. His critique of Bernie is very shallow. Bernie has campaigned forever about ending economic inequality and getting money out of politics as the foundations of change. A strong case can be made that Bernie relinquishing the mic to the BLM protesters was an equally important catalyst for those awesome protesters!
