Channeling Bernie #9


BERNIE_AD_12_SFTW

I have to confess I’m growing weary of people telling me Bernie is a one-issue candidate. These folks equate his stance on income inequality as somehow separate from his stance on the minimum wage, Social Security, eliminating college debt, early childhood education or income tax restructuring. The simple truth is they are ALL related, because if the wealthy have all the money, and the Republicans help them retain as much of it as possible, there won’t be any money available for any of Bernie’s other priorities. Ironic that the wealthiest (read Koch brothers!) are the chief proponents of starving government so it cannot function as a bulwark for its citizens against ignorance, hunger or poverty. Go Bernie, Go! And thank you!!

“A Jew can’t win the White House!” the story goes. And certainly not a Jew who’s a Democratic Socialist. Or left-handed. Or a man in his 70’s. Or someone who regularly steps on sidewalk cracks. Or a man with a Brooklyn accent. Even if he actually speaks English! 

If you’re still listening to Hillary supporters or political pundits who will give you half a dozen reasons why Bernie can’t win, just listen to what they’ll say once Bernie wins an early Democratic primary. They’ll be the ones to tell you “Bernie can’t lose!” then ask for a job on the campaign. Truth is Bernie could win and Bernie could lose. It all depends on two things: first getting Bernie’s message out, then getting his supporters to the polls. 

And whatever you do, don’t stop believing!

Channeling Bernie #1

With growing respect and burgeoning hope, I’ve watched this rumpled, self-declared Democratic Socialist Senator from Vermont offer his plain sense, speak-the-truth campaign for the Presidency of the United States. Hell, he ain’t pretty, he’s certainly not packaged for public consumption, but he is wise, honest and authentic. And, damn it, he believes America has a responsibility to care for the welfare of its citizens. As do I. And so I felt the need to do what I do best, create advertisements that sell a product that, in this case, is truly worth selling. So, together with my talented colleague Bill Dahlgren, I’ve created a series of ads that attempt to channel the policies and positions of the man whose compassion, common sense and courage America urgently needs right now. Watch this location for future ads in the series. And, please, share this with your friends.
