Hillary Clinton cronies have locked up a majority of delegates EVEN BEFORE THE FIRST PRIMARY!!! This is rigged! Pledge to either vote for OR Write In Senator Bernie Sanders for President in November 2016!
The election system is already fraught with unfair rules and laws such as the Citizen United ruling. Yesterday, October 29th, 2015, the news story was that Hillary Clinton has clinched a majority of the delegates to the Democratic Convention and will get nominated almost automatically for President. Today is the 30th of October 2015, and there has not even been ONE primary yet. This is a rigged system. As Senator Sanders has said, we need a political revolution.
The only way for this to be a success is for a contingency plan. We as supporters, will not accept a Carte Blanche nomination of Hillary Clinton, a Wall Street supported, corporate Democrat. As you will see on my Facebook page, Upstate New York for Bernie Sanders, there are numerous reasons he is better for the working class of this country. Please join me and pledge to EITHER vote, or WRITE IN Senator Sanders for President of the United States in 2016!
Here is the link...I know I will get haters who support Hillary and hopefully support from Bernie folks..that's fine:

New note:
Not...I think the comment that there will be a few people writing Bernie in underestimates the frustration with having a corporate Dem in the White House when we want a progressive..btw, in the US, small businesses like mine basically make up the excessive cost of premiums under ACA paying $1200-1300 per month for a fairly basic family medical policy..and now, the company wants to exclude working spouses from counting towards a group policy. In a business like mine, that defines the policy; without my wife/employee counting towards this group plan, it jacks us up to an even higher cost option. ACA was a corporate Dem gift to the poor in increasing Medicaid..it was NOT an affordable option for small businesses like mine..luckily, it's not putting me out in the street, but I know of many people running small businesses or make too much for Medicaid and can't afford these premiums. Bernie Sanders is the best advocate for a single payer, Medicare for all platform..Hillary took big Wall Street and insurance money in the past..I trust her as much as I did voting for President Obama twice....whether super delegates is enough or not, being snotty doesn't take away the fact that there are MILLIONS like me who will for sure consider writing him in.....
