Two days ago, we had just gone over the 4K mark. 60 minutes ago, we doubled that number! Let's keep the fires stoked... And again, I will use someone else's words to spur you on:
These were the words of Christopher Sudlik in Saint Louis, MO when he signed the petition:
"Because the political issues of this election have cast a shadow over my entire life. The wars in the middle east started when I was a child and people I know have been lost in them.
Because I finished college in 2009 when youth unemployment was horrific. My student loans have left me in crippling debt, even with a degree in Mechanical engineering.
Because the criminal justice system is corrupt and came after me for running a boycott.
Because our markets can't stand more consolidation or deregulation.
I need you to run because this drug war needs to end and marijuana needs to be accessible to those who want it, because we shouldn't have more people in prison than anywhere else on earth, because we shouldn't spy on our citizens and watch everything they do.
I need you to run because you are our only hope, we may not get another chance before the establishment has effectively shut down our means of resistance, which they have already worked so hard to do.
Because hard working people should not live in poverty.
Because getting sick shouldn't sentence somebody to death or eternal debt.
Because having dreams as a child shouldn't mean you have to live as an indentured servant to the banks until you are fifty.
Because people cannot afford to survive.
Because we can't keep killing poor brown people in other countries.
Hillary is on the wrong side of all these issues. If you aren't running, if you don't win, millions of people will suffer, thousands may die. Don't let those people rest on your conscious, do the right thing and stay in this race until November."
Please keep sharing. Bernie needs to hear from as many of us as possible.
Thank you for all you do!
