From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann channels the best of the American Founders with voice and pen. His deep attachment to a democratic civil society is just the medicine America needs."
—Tom Hayden, author of The Long Sixties and director, Peace and Justice Resource Center.
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"With the ever-growing influence of corporate CEOs and their right-wing allies in all aspects of American life, Hartmann’s work is more relevant than ever. Throughout his career, Hartmann has spoken compellingly about the value of people-centered democracy and the challenges that millions of ordinary Americans face today as a result of a dogma dedicated to putting profit above all else. This collection is a rousing call for Americans to work together and put people first again."
—Richard Trumka, President, AFL-CIO
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann is a literary descendent of Ben Franklin and Tom Paine. His unflinching observations and deep passion inspire us to explore contemporary culture, politics, and economics; challenge us to face the facts of the societies we are creating; and empower us to demand a better world for our children and grandchildren."
—John Perkins, author of the New York Times bestselling book Confessions of an Economic Hit Man

Why people Don't vote
1. Have you seen the lineup of pathological liars on the Rebublican ticket? There isn't one of them that deserves one vote. I have come to the conclusion that the men in black need to get them under control. There is something alien about Cruse ,Rubio,& Walker they just look like a character from the movie. They obviously don't live on this planet. When I see Trump he reminds me of the pawn shop guy where they blow his head off and it just grows back.
2 On the Democratic side we have Hillary Probably already had her for 8 years some might have forgot. Lets see Crooked Politician From the past that just doesn't know when to give up
I understand she has already bought enough delegates to give her the nomination. Sounds like politics as usual.
3. Reason to vote
Bernie Sanders Would like very much to vote for him but the crooked political system won't allow a decent man to be elected. So stick a fork in it this country is DONE
Please, don't give up just yet! Obama WON, and the whole world, including myself, did NOT believe it was possible, but he WON! Truth is, that's how BAD the Bush administration SCREWED UP this Country, and had the WORLD, pissed off with America! Therefore, I strongly believe the American People, does not want to live in another Republican Warmongering Era!
So lets, HOPE and PRAY, that we can obtain these SAME RESULTS with Bernie, in addition to getting the Political Revolution involved, so when he is ELECTED, he will have a PROGRESSIVE House and Senate, so we can GET THINGS DONE!
If the PEOPLE TURN OUT, as they did for OBAMA, you BETTER BELIEVE, Bernie Sanders WILL BE OUR NEXT PRESIDENT! Problem is, we must ensure that the PEOPLE STAY INVOLVED in EVERY ELECTION thereafter, if NOT, Bernie CAN very well end up with a Congress and Senate, OBSTRUCTING EVERYTHING!
and those POLLS, I don't BELEIVE them for one second! Big Business WANTS Hillary for their President, because she will keep things AS THEY ARE .... FOR THE 1%!
I truly believe that this would have been the year for a third-party president to win the election, then again the electoral college would decide who wins rather than the popular vote.
I donated to Bernie Campaign got a tee shirt . I have catchy slogan that should be on it. Underneath Bernie 2016 I want to put a picture of a toilet with congressman being flushed down it under that it says
EVERY GOOD MOVEMENT DESERVES A FLUSH
HELP BERNIE FLUSH CONGRESS 2016
100% not sure I can trust this poll because it might have been hacked.
I know this country is doomed if any of the jokers in the Rebublican party win, The truth is they will if they run against Hillary. She is probably the most hated politician in this country I live in the center of red I know what people say about her. There was a small poll conducted here in my small town by the local paper this was before Biden announced . If election was held today between Hillary, Biden and Bernie who would win?
Bernie 58 %
Hillary 21%
Biden 21%
This was really shocking to me because I didn't think anyone here in the middle of a red state would even know who Bernie was. It is obvious to me that less wealthy republicans will vote for Bernie over dumb Donald any day.
