Sanders is prepared to be a liberal thorn in Clinton’s side
Keywords:
Bernie Sanders with 46% of the delegates, 13.4 million votes, 22 states, and many of the young people in the U.S. behind him, told a news reporter at his home in the final sprint two weeks before the election- he plans to see the major planks of the Democratic platform implemented. He said Clinton is progressive on a number of issues, but the platform is more progressive with upward mobility a critical concern. Sanders played a critical role in shaping the platform. He says he opposes someone from Wall Street in positions of Treasury Secretary, Trade Representative, and will make known his views who would be best in these positions, including Attorney General. Sanders is supported in the Senate by Senators Sherrod Brown, Jeff Merkley, and Elizabeth Warren. Warren has campaigned with Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire, and both support minimum wage, women's rights. WIth a win for Democrats in the Senate Sanders will become either the chairman of the Budget Committee, or with his preference chairman of the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee. His main goal now is to see key economic Cabinet positions that affect upward mobility, intergenerational mobility, which is damaged today for the middle and working class, go to persons who would do the most to improve it.

The Bernie Sanders U.S. presidential campaign of 2016 and Howard Dean's campaign in 2004- upward mobility for working class Americans the issue in 2016, the Iraq war in 2004
08/09/2015
Howard Dean was governor of Vermont and Sanders was Mayor of Burlington, Vermont. Both candidates draw white, educated, affluent voters of the Democratic Party. But the situation is different in 2014, with the Democratic Party now 40% female, and many ethnic minorities represented in the party. Dean's major issue was his opposition to the Iraq war. Sanders says his positions are more class based and calls for a revolution to give working class Americans a chance for upward mobility.

Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton, and the "100% support" during the final months of the U.S. presidential election of 2016
10/21/2016
Bernie Sanders showed considerable understanding, patience, and the right grasp of events, in his wholehearted support of Hillary Clinton in the final months of the campaign. He understood that it was all about programs, positions, and not personalities. As one New Hampshire Sanders steering committee member says, "Hillary Clinton has stretched and grown" during this period just before the convention by agreeing with Sanders on many positions, on trade to protect workers, on Glass Seagall reinstating to ensure bank safety, on government support for college tuition to increase upward intergenerational mobility. The whole Democratic Party platform has Sanders critical role in developing it.

Bernie Sanders says Hillary is a "progressive" on some days, and not on other days such as when she received $675,000 for 3 speeches at Goldman Sachs to her 2016 presidential campaign fund. Hillary says she is amused at how Sanders has become a gatekeeper for the "progressive" label. This was in response to questions at a CNN town hall by Anderson Cooper on Feb. 3, 2016.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
