San Francisco Progressive Democrats of America

Come join Bernie Sanders supporters in San Francisco this coming Sunday afternoon for photos, fun & more!

While Hillary Clinton attends a $1,000-a-head fundraising party in Atherton ($2,700 for a photo with the candidate), Sanders supporters will instead gather for a brief rally and update with a speaker or two.

Comedian Nato Green will be on hand, and, oh yes, everyone will be encouraged to send Sanders just one percent of the top priced ticket in Atherton – $27, which also happens to be the average amount of the Sanders campaign’s 3+ million individual contributions

No-host bar and food available.
Fashionable Bernie T-shirts and paraphernalia for sale.
Photo-op with Bernie! (Okay, so it’s a big poster, but it won’t cost $2700.)

THIS EVENT PRECEDES AN OFFICIAL SANDERS “BARNSTORMING” EVENT AT 4PM, SAME LOCATION
Added to the calendar on Thu, Feb 18, 2016 10:17AM

National Socialist Democrat, Zionist, pro-military, pro-Nazi Ukraine Bernie Sanders is overpriced at the exorbitant $27, an amount that no worker can afford. This adoration of Sanders is clearly a bourgeois game, and it stinks. Like the Nazis of Nazi Germany, Democrat Bernie Sanders tries to steal the thunder of the left to admittedly win votes for the Democratic Party so the workingclass never votes Red or Green by verbally condemning big business and the rich while supporting the military and the blood for oil wars of the capitalist class since the greatest profits are in oil and munitions, and maximization of profits being the primary goal of the bankrupt social order in which we live, capitalism. The purpose of the Nazi party was to smash the left and the trade unions, the same as the Democratic Party, which is financed by the same capitalist class as the Republican Party, to both perpetrate war and fascism. Nazi stands for National Socialist German Workers Party.

The US elections are all staged, especially the presidential election, down to the last detail. What are you going to do when Sanders drops out before or during the Democratic convention? You better vote your conscience in the primary, and for that you must be registered Peace & Freedom or Green, if you really hate capitalism.

FIVE YEARS AGO, a Counterpunch article warned Americans of the Democrats' sheepdog to drive disgruntled Democrats back to the Democratic Party that they have in every presidential election. See

He also called Hugo Chavez, the late leader of Venezuela murdered by the CIA, a communist dictator, standard US capitalist war machine hatemongering. See

His support of US imperialism is outrageous and unconscionable. See

Small Business Not The Heart of US Economy by Eugene Puryear, 1/13/16
https://www.liberationnews.org/small-business-isnt-the-heart-of-the-american-economy/
Both Clinton and Sanders push the lie the small business is the heart of the US economy when the truth is big business employs 40% of the people in this country, about 45 million, more than all people employed by small businesses that employ less than 100 workers. The workingclass are the 80% of Americans who sell our labor for less than $80,000 a year, and most of the American workingclass never votes in any election. Most voters are property owners making over $100,000 a year and half the voters are over age 50.

Bernie Sanders voted for money for Israel during Israel's massacre of Gaza in July 2014. He is a lifelong Zionist, a darling of AIPAC. His Russian bashing and celebration of war contractors in Vermont are part of his same support of the US war machine as his support of the US military base called Israel.

He claims he is a democratic socialist but not a Marxist, an impossibility since a Marxist is by definition a democratic socialist, supporting the needs and interests of the overwhelming majority, the workingclass.
