On the other hand, two dollars and seventy cents from countless thousands of citizens doesn't sit well with the pundits who must see a nightmare of cash flow cuts to Comcast, Disney, or TimeWarner.

How will the revolving door between Goldman Sachs or ExxonMobile stay viable with a Bernie Sanders for president?

What must be expelled from our culture is a mentality that thrives on despising the poor and the working class. What must be expelled is the vortex of fear surround people of color.

For all its religiosity, America has a hard time remaining focused on the "the least of these."

Except, except, except"

To put it another way, Sanders doesn't defend a xenophobic mindset that maintains an America that practices hypocrisy on a daily bases. Sanders doesn't spewing hate before his supportersname calling and branding, while delighting in destroying any semblance of civility.

And yet, the media pundits act as if something has gone terribly wrong in America. Well it has and it's not Bernie Sanders or his supporters.

It's the culture that normalizes fear of people of color.
