I'm not sure I can advocate effectively for Bernie (or for anything, for that matter). I want to give up! Do you have any helps for me?

Read this book review and check out this great book for inspiration:
Soul of a Citizen: Living with Conviction in a Cynical Time.

To really get a feel for Bernie and how he runs a political campaign, we highly recommend his book Outsider in the White House. You can read a book review of it here on the blog or here on the reviewer's web page or at its Amazon or Goodreads listing.

“If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.” — Frederick Douglass

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has." - Margaret Mead

"Pessimist because of intelligence, but optimists because of will." - Antonio Gramsci

"The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don't have any." - Alice Walker

"Laws should be made to serve the people. People should not be made to serve the laws." - Huey P. Newton

"Let them call me rebel and welcome, I feel no concern from it; but I should suffer the misery of devils, were I to make a whore of my soul." -Thomas Paine

"The country is in deep trouble. We've forgotten that a rich life consists fundamentally of serving others, trying to leave the world a little better than you found it. We need the courage to question the powers that be, the courage to be impatient with evil and patient with people, the courage to fight for social justice. In many instances, we will be stepping out on nothing, and just hoping to land on something. But that's the struggle. To live is to wrestle with despair, yet never allow despair to have the last word." - Dr. Cornel West

Progressive Henry Wallace in 1948: “Both parties—as the record makes clear—are the champions of big business. Republicans admit it. Democrats attempt to conceal it.”

"The American fascists are most easily recognized by their deliberate perversion of truth and fact. Their newspapers and propaganda carefully cultivate every fissure of disunity ... They claim to be super-patriots, but they would destroy every liberty guaranteed by the Constitution. They demand free enterprise, but are the spokesmen for monopoly and vested interest. Their final objective toward which all their deceit is directed is to capture political power so that, using the power of the state and the power of the market simultaneously, they may keep the common man in eternal subjection."

~ Vice President Henry A. Wallace

April 9, 1944

“Every time they strike a blow, they add a thousand new voices to the hosts proclaiming that socialism is the hope of humanity and has come to emancipate the people from their final form of servitude.”

Eugene V. Debs, 1918

"It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it." -- Upton Sinclair.
