I was just bumped off CNN after a couple of minutes because Pete came on to endorse Biden. Join me tonight if you’re around LA, 7 PM at the Montalban Theater, 1615 Vine St. in Hollywood so we can talk a lot more. GOTV. Tomorrow is the day!

Pete and Amy both endorsing Biden tonight. They must’ve read “Art of the Deal” :)

Yes they did do that, and more, but 1) people had the opportunity to not be duped by the ridiculous stories about me, and 2) I have the power to be talking about it even now. In some countries I could not.

I hope we’re all appreciating this week how lucky we are to live in a country where we have the power to choose our president. With voter suppression, party manipulation etc that power is threatened, but fully appreciating its importance is part of what inspires us to defend it.

Obviously I left out a word in that tweet. It was supposed to say “the very idea of America.” Sorry!

I’m totally inclusive. None of this has anything to do with the use of the word “God.” What’s important is the application of love. Some who say they believe in God are loving, and some are not. It’s the practice and experience of love that matters.

Democratic socialism. All he’s saying is let’s have universal access to healthcare and higher education. I’m a capitalist, but capitalism should have a conscience. The most evolved society is a blend of capitalism and socialism both. At our best, we already are.

The very of America is so audacious - that everyone is created equal by God and therefore should have equal power and opportunity - that every generation has to play out the age-old contest between royalism and democracy. The contest is re-enacted in every era. Now it’s our turn.

I look at thousands and thousands of young people of every color, ethnicity, sexuality etc., all excited about the possibility of political change and it makes me very happy. Other people look at that same phenomenon and feel threatened. That is the real contest, the subtext here

Those in both parties who paint Bernie as extreme are doing so in order to protect an economic paradigm that puts corporations before people. THAT is what should be seen as extreme.

What Bernie stands for is not radical or extreme. It’s nothing more than a return to the traditional FDR Democratic Party position of always being on the side of the working people in America. Prior to the 1980s, that was considered the core of the Democratic Party.
