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.

If he's leaving the Democrat Party plantation, where is he going?
Pitypity pussyfoot. Supporting a Communist is somehow a disease that is always hidden behind the same old garbage. Money makes the world go around. It is not Money that is evil, it is the extent to which some people will go in order to acquire it that we must despise. To live off the work and sacrifice of others is to acquire a living dishonestly and is to be despised. Yet the naysayers of one evil jump part and parcel into another evil in order to avoid the first one. How stupid some people are. But you can’t fix stupid in ,ost cases.
“the Democratic Party”
It’s Democrat.
Democrat party.
Yes. As acknowledged in an earlier post, I know.
I copied the headline without putting much thought into it.
Shrillary is losing the white-guys-who-pretend-to-be-black-and-who-are-future-transgender-psychos vote
A preacher background and you couldn't find anything in the Bible that convinced you God wouldn't approve of abortion?
Yes; they have been pushing that bullsh#t for about 6 or 7 months now.
They suddenly became the DEMOCRATIC PARTY instead of just the DEMOCRAT PARTY, like they have been for the better part of 200 years.
Guess they don’t like the original name of their communist organization and want it to sound more people friendly.
Have you noticed that the talking heads and media idiots have already bought into it without a single question about the name change?
Can you imagine the flack if the Republican Party changed their name to something like the Constitutional Republican Party or the American Republic Party.
