We’ve had enough regressive transformation the last 7 years to last a lifetime. All going “Forward” meant during this administration is going over the cliff.
Hillary won’t need the superdelegates, it’s pretty clear Sanders has no chance.
I thought Obunghole already did that.
From the Washington Times, April 30, 2012:
New Obama slogan has long ties to Marxism, socialism
[snip]
Many Communist and radical publications and entities throughout the 19th and 20th centuries had the name "Forward!" or its foreign cognates. Wikipedia has [since deleted] an entire section called "Forward (generic name of socialist publications)."
"The name Forward carries a special meaning in socialist political terminology. It has been frequently used as a name for socialist, communist and other left-wing newspapers and publications," the online encyclopedia explains.
The slogan "Forward!" reflected the conviction of European Marxists and radicals that their movements reflected the march of history, which would move forward past capitalism and into socialism and communism.
The Obama campaign released its new campaign slogan Monday in a 7-minute video. The title card has simply the word "Forward" with the "O" having the familiar Obama logo from 2008. It will be played at rallies this weekend that mark the Obama re-election campaign's official beginning. ..."

From Shepard Fairey's official website (ObeyGiant.com):
Check it out! I got a thank you note from Barack Obama. If he is elected, maybe I have a get out of jail free card. All kidding aside, I'm honored to be acknowledged by someone so important to the future of our country. Also, the Obama campaign asked me to do a poster illustration for sale on their site. It should be out next week on barackobama.com.-Shepard

I think you can sort of get the feel of who he (Fairey) likes and admires, and who he definitely does not like or admire.

Hey Bernie ... You won’t like the backlash
ya, like Lenin trans formed Russia and Mao transformed China. 100 million in their graves.
Here is what I imagine Bernie Sanders’ acceptance speech to the convention would sound like ...
“If I live ... if you live ... Lenin would be proud of all of us.”
When they start shipping thousands of inner city blacks to take up permanent residence in Vermont I’ll pay attention to the residents of that state.
Until then,who cares what they say.
.
Hillary wants Sanders in the race... he make the Democrat party ‘look’ like they’re alive...
Transforming it into a Goosestepping hell hole! Brownshirt Bernie is no better then the Wife of the Rapist!!
Fill the urn!
Post #25 : Ten to one, Fairey really is a “fairy”...

Done That.
Don’t want to do it again.
Sanders gets huge crowds but no voters.
But he won 4 states. Go firgue.
