Bernie Sanders delivers a powerful speech
US-Senator and ex-Candidate to the white house delivers a powerful speech via his Facebook Account to each American Citizen and to the whole world.
“The great crisis that we face as a nation is not just the objective problems that we face— a rigged economy, a corrupt campaign finance system, a broken criminal justice system, and the extraordinary threat of climate change. The more serious crisis is the limitation of our imaginations. It is falling victim to an incredibly powerful establishment— economic, political, and media— that tells us every day, in a million different ways, that real change is unthinkable and impossible. That we have got to think small, not big.
The future of our country and, perhaps, the world requires us to break through those limitations. Humanity is at a crossroads. We can continue down the current path of greed, consumerism, oligarchy, poverty, war, racism, and environmental degradation. Or we can lead the world in moving in a very different direction. We will not be able to accomplish those goals if we look at democracy as a spectator sport, assuming others will do it for us. They won’t. The future is in your hands. Let’s get to work.”
