This story shall the good people teach their children
And Our political revolution shall ne'er go by,
From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be rememberèd—
We few, we happy few, we band of Bernie brothers and sisters
For they to-day that votes Bernie Sanders with me
Shall be my kin ; be them ne'er so vile,
This day shall gentle their condition;
And people in America now a-bed
Shall think themselves accurs'd they were not here,
And hold their citizenship cheap whiles any speaks
That voted with us upon Bernie Sanders Election Day
" Bern So Bright " Shakespeare

Jesse Jackson DNC convention 1984
Our time has come. Our time has come. Suffering breeds character. Character breeds faith. In the end, faith will not disappoint.
Our time has come. Our faith, hope, and dreams will prevail. Our time has come. Weeping has endured for nights, but now joy cometh in the morning.
Our time has come. No grave can hold our body down. Our time has come. No lie can live forever.
Our time has come. We must leave racial battle ground and come to economic common ground and moral higher ground. America, our time has come. We come from disgrace to amazing grace.
Our time has come. Give me your tired, give me your poor, your huddled masses who yearn to breathe free and come November, there will be a change because our time has come.
No generation can choose the age or circumstance in which it is born, but through leadership it can choose to make the age in which it is born an age of enlightenment, an age of jobs, and peace, and justice. Only leadership -- that intangible combination of gifts, the discipline, information, circumstance, courage, timing, will and divine inspiration -- can lead us out of the crisis in which we find ourselves. Leadership can mitigate the misery of our nation. Leadership can part the waters and lead our nation in the direction of the Promised Land. Leadership can lift the boats stuck at the bottom.
This is not a perfect party. We are not a perfect people. Yet, we are called to a perfect mission. Our mission: to feed the hungry; to clothe the naked; to house the homeless; to teach the illiterate; to provide jobs for the jobless; and to choose the human race over the nuclear race.

A fun repost The Bernie Sanders Show : How The Media is Profiting on The Political Prophet :
To some it would seem counterintuitive that in a Presidential contender that many highly paid prominent personalities that populate the various forms of media , decry as " Too Socialist " , Media Capitalists are making Big Bank on Bernie Sanders . And also doing quite well too - Thank You - are the other Democratic top tier and outlier candidates that are enjoying the free ride . Even the Incumbent is relishing an opportunistic fill-up of his campaign coffers on the ' threat ' of Big Bad Bernie taking up residence at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave .
There's Big money to be made on a Democratic Socialist running for President when that Democratic Socialist is Bernie Sanders .
Intended and unintended consequences abound . At least in one media economic sector Bernie Sanders contending for the Democratic nomination for President has incepted an excitement , vibrancy , and verve ; that free market capitalists and libertarians can only issue talking points about .
As wound be suspected , Bernie Sanders fights on while everyone else is cashing in .
You wouldn't know it from seeing Senator Bernie Sanders schlepping in airports flying coach class from rally to rally , that the 2020 Presidential race is " The Bernie Sanders Show " and he is the star . You would think that media Companies like Disney Corporation , whose media properties have made more money on Bernie Sanders than their best superhero box office hit , would offer a real superhero a ride on the corporate jet .
CNN , originally owed by the Warner Brothers the Warner part of Time -Warner Co. is also a Bernie Bro . A New Jack City , Cash Money Brother .
Comcast is no better : Even while also engorging at the money trough, MSNBC Front News Organization of sycophants and avatars for The Clinton Global Illuminati , has hatred for Bernie Sander that is viscerally palpable .
It offends their elitist sensibility that Bernie Sanders produces positive results without the huge organizational infrastructure and foundational overhead that is the CGI 's modus operandi . The late writer Gore Vidal may have had MSNBC in mind when he wrote : "The squalor never ends once one gets involved with people for whom truth is no criterion."
Would there even be a race to report on in the main Money Stream Media without Bernie Sanders ? Maybe after Labor Day or Thanksgiving, but now .?Without Bernie would there be any excitement ? Would anyone really care ? I for one would be indifferent and I suspect many more would be too .The guilty pleasure of watching a has been D - list celebrity Reality TV show entertainer President has worn thin . Now : it's the trials and tribulations of " Feeling The Bern " or rejecting the Bern that's the new hot ticket in town ; the only must see TV ; Most views ; most clicks ; most viral ; and currently The main attraction of the greatest show on earth .
After accounting for all the traditional ways that Political campaigns add value to an economy : Hiring campaign workers ; Media Advertising; The myriad of salaried logistics and ancillary hourly wage earner support .
Ask Mark Zuckerberg how many Millions Facebook has made on Bernie already , this campaign and the last one in 2016 . If Jeff Bezos bothered to do an analytic , he would find the media properties of Amazon Inc. have made more money on Bernie than it paid out in raising his workers pay up to the minimum wage that Senator Sanders tirelessly advocated for . Get an accounting from Google , Twitter, twitch , AWS , iCloud and MSFT . I know what mining the data will indicate : That Bernie Sanders is a social media Gold Mine . I bet even Fox News has made him an honorary ' Friend ' for the cash they have bagged .
Bernie is also helping YouTube political personalities make more money .There are many YouTube Video bloggers making bank on Bernie and more are on the way . Everybody is trying to get milk from this cash cow .
Already established politically progressive media streamers and podcasters are " Feeling The Bern " too . There's also a new progressive leaning political news format YouTube stream : " Rising " from The Hill , the Washington D.C. Newspaper - quite good actually . A new cottage industry has been created around Bernie Sanders campaign for President and the new progressive moment .
The other candidates competing for the Democratic nomination are doing just fine thanks to Senator Bernie Sanders . If you can take votes away from Sanders A Billionaire's ATM will always be accessible to your campaign .
For candidates like Yang or Williamson , would anyone have heard of these outliers if this weren't another Bernie running for President year ? Highly doubtful . Ninety percent of the Democratic contenders would still be stuck in their day jobs if Bernie Sanders wasn't headlining the big show . Now everyone gets to be his costar .
It's a sure bet that America's favorite Oligarchs will dig deep into their tax avoiding pockets to prevent a Sanders Presidency . They can be counted on " to pay any price , bear any burden " to achieve that desired result .
The CBO or the Federal Reserve should do an economic impact study on Sanders Presidential Campaign's effect on the economy .
Many economic prognosticators are certain the American economy is about to slip further into recession or financial catastrophe- Bernie Sanders just by contending for the Nations highest office is possibly forestalling these potentialities.
As always first adopters cash in first .
But this is just the tip of the Mountain of Profits that are to be made from the political Prophet on the Mountain .
In The New Gold Rush in media and politics that is called Bernie Sanders For President .

Linda Blackwell In my limited capacity it's was a backhanded slap at the MSM who did so much to elect the incumbent and ignore Sanders in 2016 and continue to do so . Now that you said ' Never Biden ' . I offer a professional writer's piece - sorry it's long but worth it .
Clinton-era politics refuses to die. Joe Biden is its zombie that staggers on
Biden thinks he’s well positioned because after the shock of the Trump years, people want to go back to where we were. Wrong - Hamilton Nolan The Guardian May 1 , 2019
You cannot understand politics in America until you understand that in the Democratic party, which ostensibly represents the left side of our nation’s political spectrum, there are a significant number of people who genuinely believe that Joe Biden is the best possible presidential nominee. Their belief is not cynical, or at least not wholly cynical.
His constituency is real. It is not illuminating to think of them just as centrists, arguing for the gentlest sprinkling of sugar over the top of America’s poison. It’s better to think of them as zombies: the product of three decades of self-serving, triangulating brainwashing. They are the Democrats who had their eyelids propped open and were forced to watch the Clinton era, year after year after year. It is not so much that they do not, deep down, harbor a vague wish for a better world; it is that, like stray dogs dining exclusively on garbage, life has taught them that this is the best that they will ever get.
Consider what it says about the state of America’s political system that in the left party, the presumptive frontrunner for the presidential nomination did not think twice about kicking off his campaign with a fundraiser hosted by the founder of a union-busting law firm, days before appearing at a major union-hosted rally. And why should he? He gets the money, and then he gets the union support. He knows his audience well. This is how Democratic politics has been done in Joe Biden’s lifetime. This is how it works.
It is not remarkable in the least for Joe Biden to come right out of the gate by filling his coffers with money from telecom and health insurance executives. Who is going to tell him that he shouldn’t? The lobbyists advising his campaign? The zillionaire media executives feting him in a Hollywood mansion? The superstructure of Obama administration functionaries who see him as the most established of the establishment brand names? For the people who matter, Joe Biden is doing just what he is expected to do.
Good luck on the campaign trail, Joe. You’re about to meet an America that has already left you behind
And that is just it. Millions of people – including, most importantly, Joe Biden himself – have yet to see any evidence that he is not playing the game exactly as it should be played.
We are talking about a person who built his career as the credit card industry’s man in Washington, while simultaneously cultivating a reputation as a down-to-earth everyman. We are talking about a man who voted againstgay marriage when it was unpopular – and then won plaudits for his bravery by changing his mind years later, when it was popular. We are talking about a man who played a key role in launching America’s war on drugs and mass incarceration epidemic, yet who is widely perceived as a sensitive man with hard-won empathy after losing a son. We are talking about a man who voted in favor of the Iraq war even while giving every indication that he knew it was a bad idea.
Later, he apologized. After that, he became the vice-president for a president whose bona fides on the left were based in large part on his opposition to that war. And now, he will try to ride his connection to that popular ex-president into the White House. And all of the pundits will say that he is the man to beat, and all of the money will come flooding in, and the corporate executives will wink at him even as the firefighters union gives him that big labor endorsement. He is well on his way to uniting everyone who likes to watch the world burn.
I am not mad at Joe Biden. He is a type. His type is “The Old Way of Doing Things.” Now that he is in the race, his type is represented. He rounds out the field. Now, Democratic voters truly have the entire buffet of choices, from “True Leftist Insurgent” to “Bland, Winning Young Résumé-Polisher” to “Indistinguishable Ambitious Congresspersons” to “The Same Old Kind of White Guy As Always”.
This is nothing to fear. This is healthy. This is a perfect referendum on where our country is now. Joe Biden, the avatar of the past, believes that he’s well positioned because after the shock of the Trump years, people want to go back to where we were. Wrong. People want to go somewhere new. I fully expect Joe Biden to step out of his campaign headquarters and fall directly into the huge pit that has opened up as America moved tectonically to the left. There is nothing scary about the candidate that represents the political philosophy that produced in the public the deadly cynicism that gave us Donald Trump. This plain fact will never be accepted by the sort of people who believe that Joe Biden is the answer, because accepting it is an indictment of an entire generation of leaders who consider themselves quite successful.
The Republican party has long been a corrupt tool for serving the interests of the rich by lying to the poor; dwelling on their role in bringing us here is like scolding an alligator for biting off your hand after you stuck it in his mouth. The Democrats are the ones who were supposed to save us. It was their failure in this duty that allowed the catastrophes to pile up. They failed to stop the post-Reagan explosion of economic inequality; they failed to stop the militarism that has embroiled us in endless war; they failed to argue for things like healthcare and education as rights rather than purchases; they fed our most vulnerable citizens to an evil machine labeled “criminal justice” in exchange for votes from racists. They earned their turn in power by agreeing not to use that power for the common good. And here we are: incredibly divided, hopelessly unequal, justifiably sick of our broken institutions, and very, very angry.
Good luck on the campaign trail, Joe. You’re about to meet an America that has already left you behind. I’m sorry you’ll have to find out the hard way.

A Change Is Gonna Come by Sam Cooke
I was born by the river in a little tent
Oh and just like the river I've been running ev'r since
It's been a long time, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
It's been too hard living, but I'm afraid to die
'Cause I don't know what's up there, beyond the sky
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
I go to the movie and I go downtown
Somebody keep tellin' me don't hang around
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
Then I go to my brother
And I say brother help me please
But he winds up knockin' me
Back down on my knees, oh
There have been times that I thought I couldn't last for long
But now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come, oh yes it will
Songwriters: Sam Cooke
