Many of you aren't religious, so please forgive me for recalling my roots as a preacher and starting us off with a simple verse of scripture.
"The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil."
- 1 Timothy 6:10, The New Testament of the Bible
Clinton's refusal to release the transcripts of her speeches to Goldman Sachs was the straw that broke the camel's back for me. Her indignant and irrational excuses made no sense — particularly in light of the reports stating that the transcripts would ruin her campaign and made her sound like an executive at the company.
I'll start where I left off — the root of all of this is the love of money. In this campaign, Bernie Sanders, with a ragtag group of misfits, proved to the world that another way exists. He has created a blueprint for us on how we build a political movement without the money from billionaire class and their special interests.
In my heart, I believe we are on the brink of something very special. It isn't going to be the presidency of Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump either. It's going to be what those of us who've seen a better way do next.
Don't believe what anyone tells you — the ball is in our hand and we have more power than progressive people have had in a very long time in this country. I will fight for Bernie Sanders until he is no longer running for president.
After that, this will be my last election as a Democrat. I'm moving on and hope you do, too.

Uh oh. Hillary is losing the White Guys Who Pretend To Be Black vote
More proof this guy is a white guy.
(As if any more was needed).
Exactly! Lol.
In other words far from being an outsider Sanders is a guy who for the love of money has abused and exploited the government system he swore to protect.
Am I the only one who finds this funny?

I believe Trump has spent a lot less money than Sanders. Does anyone know for sure?
....right King, we’ll all become little brown shirts and bow to Sanders. Piss off you whinny
little bewildered turd.
Sean doesn't realize that all progressives are either evil or ignorant. The leadership doesn't believe in the cause, but uses it as a platform for power and to control government - they are evil, because they cause suffering for their own gain. The ignorant vote for them because they are, well, ignorant, and often willingly so.
The problem for the ignorant is that without the evil leadership's money and power, there is no movement. Progressivism doesn't have enough support without paid protesters, liars, and a paid media.
So if you want your progressivism, Sean, you can't have one without the other. Your fake movement dies without being subsidized by evil.
“I’m leaving because the Dems want to keep us African-Americans on their Plantation!”
Uh...wait...
This guy is such a clown. He wouldn’t just now be leaving the Democratic Party if it had anything to do with the Bible.
As your tagline states, “(Democrats kill babies and harvest their organs to sell).” He also wouldn’t have been all aboard as the Democrat Party paved the way for the gay agenda. He probably wouldn’t have remained silent as genocide against Christians was happening in the middle east.
He wrote this piece to draw attention to himself. This keeps the money rolling in.
And on election day, he’ll vote for Hillary.
It’s sad though that (unless we haven’t been told) he hasn’t remembered God-as-provider.
Mere money is a neutral agent. King Solomon would have ranked as a trillionaire in modern dollars. But loving money for the sake of worldly advantage is, like loving anything else “in the world” (i.e. for analogous reasons, not meaning a salvational love) is a sin, and a hell trap.
I hope he, and many others, remember the Lord. Hillary and Bernie haven’t at all; Donald has, a little.
DEMOCRATIC?
“Progressivism” is an oxymoron. Progress requires a valid orientation and a valid goal. One can’t progress on the basis of mere hate. Love is required.
What took you so long? You did not see this before? LOL!!!!
We can’t see the bigger picture that God does. Is this the beginning of realizing there is something greater to love? Only God may know; even he might not be able to put words to it if asked.
