Sanders has seized the chance to change the way we think about what is possible in this country.

The fate of our country lies with those who have not yet voted, with those who remain politically active, and with the superdelegates.

And finally, things are going to become very, very interesting when the super-delegates and the DNC are forced to choose, publicly, whether to hand the nomination to Clinton and watch the millions of independents walk away, along with millions of former-democrat Sanders-supporters, basically handing the general election to the neo-fascists Trump or Cruz — or, to hand it to Sanders.

With Hillary Clinton likely to win the Democratic nomination, a push is on to get Sanders not to endorse her, and instead to accept the Green Party nomination for president -- a move that could both make the Greens a major party overnight, and destroy the centuries-old two-party duopoly poisoning American politics.

Singling out United Technologies, Sanders also noted that the layoffs in Indiana have been happening across the nation over the last 35 years with no end in sight.

Chomsky believes that Sanders’ movement, if turned into “a continuing, organized, mobilized force" could "change the country.”

Even with Tuesday’s campaign setbacks, Bernie Sanders’ pledge to make the country more equitable and sustainable is more realistic than some people are letting on.

Bernie has substantively — even profoundly — changed American politics for the better.

In a disappointing night for Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton won four out of five states. Donald Trump made a clean sweep, winning in all five states.

Similar at heart? Parallel in the most important ways? Sanders stands for all the Trump hates. And vice versa. Trump could be the 1% poster child that drives Sanders' dramatic anti-elitist, anti-inequality, anti-climate change denial movement. A true challenger to the status quo (party and nation) and the oligarchic "establishment" that runs this country, Sanders is more polar opposite to Trump than alleged first cousin.
