OUR REVOLUTION

WHERE IS EVERYBODY?

 By the end of the Democratic convention, Senator Bernie Sanders was able to say that he had 13 million votes; 13 million followers.

 As I read posts on Facebook, and see what people are saying, it seems they have gone a different route than following Senator Sanders. Some of this is because he endorsed the Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton . I understand this because to many she is not the legal nominee and Senator Sanders is . His endorsement of Hillary Clinton also perturbed many of his followers , including myself, she is the antithesis of all we are fighting against . However, Senator Sanders told us again and again and again in practically every speech he made not to put all our faith in HIM . His ideal was for us to stand on our own 2 feet . Now, all we seem to do is wander hopelessly .

The issues that Senator Sanders raised that inflamed all of us have been thrown aside because people have their heads so wrapped up in this election .

 I admit that for a time I was confused; I had no direction. I admit that for a time I thought I would go Green.  I felt abandoned. I felt leaderless. Then, I realized I don't need a leader.

I am the leader .

 This is the essence of what Senator Sanders wants for every single American . You are the leaders of this country . We elect representatives to do what we tell them to do; they are getting paid to do what we tell them to do .

 So I have decided to pay no more attention to this ridiculous election and to focus my attention on those things that must be done to improve my country .

 Senator Sanders has programs that he is developing that will help anyone go and run for office whether you have money or not, whether you have knowledge of politics  or not . We need to, as a country, as a unified body, take the reins of our country and use them to steer the government in the direction that will work for us .
