Bernie Sanders is a good thing for Hillary.

Bernie Sanders has just announced he is going to seek the Presidency of the United States in the Democratic party. Many people are afraid he will waste Hillary's resources. Nonsense. She has money we haven;t even seen yet.

So what does Bernie's running for President in the Democratic Party truly mean?

He will not get elected. He will not win the primaries or the parties nomination. But he will change the voice of the party.

With Clinton the party's voice was being controlled by a small group of inner circle people who want her to have a very "republicanesque" stand on issues.  A stance that is very international in scope, very "involved" in other country's business, very pro Israel and very pro business...(read BIG BUSINESS). They want this because their theory is that Hillary will carry the left anyway. Period. And she can reach more middle roaders with the GOPish approach.

Well, there are many of us that do not think she can. Remember the mid terms?  Democrats and left-leaning independents, as well as a host of middle roaders stayed away from the voting booth all together. We can’t have that happen again.

What will light a fire under the electorate?  One, she is a woman. She will activate a lot of female voters who want to see a woman in the white House. this is a good thing.  But, two, Bernie will force her hand to be more open and with a wider world view and not so cozy with Wall Street and the Big Corporations.

Hillary is a divisive candidate. Always has been. If you're tired of the term Benghazi, just wait until the election ads are running. You'll think Obama is a white, country club, pastor compared to what the Kock's think of the Clintons. So why play into their hands, by being cozy with them?
Bernie will force her away from the safe and simple be like the other guys and win on form.

No, let's win on principle. Let's win on message. Let's take America back with truth and with justice FOR ALL AMERICANS.  Not just for the banks that are too big to fail.

And let's have a reasonable foreign policy that doesn't waste money in every port on every sea of the globe.  Let's take care of Americans at home.  Let's rebuild our infrastructure here first, and worry less about the world order. Let's cut military spending. Let’s spend that money on roads, hospitals, schools and jobs. Let’s spend our tax money on America and Americans.

And let's have true tax reform.  TOP DOWN. No trickle down. No playing favorites. Let’s tax everybody equally. Same rate. Let's cut out the loopholes.  Let's stop paying companies tax incentives when sending American jobs overseas. Sorry if that sounds radical. But that's what we need.

And Bernie Sanders is the guy to preach that gospel and get people excited about a populous message. Not a safe, staid same old thing message that Hillary and company will try and roll out.

No, Bernie Sanders is a good thing for Hillary. He will wake her up and sharpen the fangs and get her ready for a real fight for the White House. And she needs that, because the other guys are going to come after her with all guns blazing.
