Stop the Betrayal of Bernie

=== Bernie, you’re a gentleman. Even within the hostile organization of the Democratic Party you were gracious. In representing us you’ve been energetic and courageous. The democrats have learned a lot from you, and so have we, which is why we are so sad now.
=== You made us believe in genuine politics. For so long millions of Americans have yearned for someone they could believe in, and have cast their votes for the lesser evil. But you taught us to doubt the media message, to be honest, and have courage. Thanks to you, people are listening for many issues the democrat-republicans and the media simply ignore: corruption in high office; the broken electoral process; Washington pandering to Wall Street: you didn’t give these issues a name as clearly as Occupy named the 1%, but thanks to you, people are aware of the issues. Clinton and her friends stole the nomination. You damn Clinton with faint praise and you’ve made us see our huge problems, and it hurts. The truth hurts, but you’ve been gracious about it.
=== You were such a gentleman to play-down Clinton’s private email. The media jabber endlessly about the e-mail that Clinton did not delete, but that is just a distraction from the real issue. Having a private e-mail server for secret diplomacy is like a bank officer having a tunnel to the vault. It only proves traitorous intent: You were gracious not to point that out.
=== War is another hidden issue. Clinton’s husband maintained sanctions against Iraq in peace time that killed hundreds of thousands of Iraqi children. The one time he could have sent US troops on a truly humanitarian mission to end the slaughter of black people in Rwanda, he didn’t bother. Her predecessor, Kerry, was the biggest war-profiteer in Congress, personally owning 31 million dollars of war industry investments. This is her clan, her kith and kin. Meanwhile, poor Americans, especially dark-skinned young men, have such poor opportunities that they are drafted by economic force into the military, to kill dark-skinned people in the Middle-East. People love to say Black Lives Matter, but they say nothing about our racist draft and a racist war policy, because such policy has been completely normalized by the media. If the sons of Clinton’s rich white friends were drafted, there would not be such war. As secretary of state Clinton arranges wars that kill black people. You were gracious to not mention this. It’s hard for people to admit you’ve been fooled. The media, the system, even the parts we believed in, are trickier and uglier than we knew. It hurts to admit it. The truth hurts.
=== But maybe you’ve been a little too gracious, Bernie. People are listening for your message, but you’re letting the media do all the talking. The media have told people a thousand times that Trump is a racist that insults black people. People may hear only once if you tell them that Clinton is a racist whose wars kill black people by the thousands. But you can speak very loudly, Bernie. The media won’t let people focus on anything but Clinton and Trump. They’ve said a thousand times that Trump want’s a Wall, while there are already walls in all our border towns. The media that now are selling Clinton are the same media that ignored the other Republican candidates and gave Trump the nomination. They’re the same media that ignored you for months and helped Clinton steal the nomination. They’re the same media that have normalized our racist wars. Of course it’s elementary liberal politics to say the media control peoples’ thinking, but it’s time for you to point this out to the Clinton supporters, who honestly are just yearning for some good news. The media have deluded people to think that A WOMAN in the White House means real progress, no matter who the woman is: Soon for the first time a WOMAN will be president. For the first time a WOMAN will be killing thousands of innocent people around the world ! For the first time in history A WOMAN will help the worst corporations exploit millions of innocent people in the US. This is how they are thinking! But this is not funny, Bernie. YOU need to tell them: your courage failed: Clinton is not your real choice: she’s our oppressor. The media keep telling us that no one really likes Clinton OR Trump (RIGHT!) and yet they keep reporting on Clinton and Trump and ignoring Jill Stein of the Green Party. Clearly, what they’re really afraid of is people choosing a third party.
=== That should tell us enough. Take your choice: elitism and racist insults or corruption and racist wars. Trump and Clinton are both horrible. They ARE the twin-headed two-party system that you fought against, Bernie. Reject them BOTH. Say it, Bernie. Say it! The people need you to say it.
=== The Democrats who worked against you certainly appreciate that you didn’t condemn the stolen nomination, and the nation admires your integrity. You tell us t...
