I voted for Jill Stein when she ran against Obama, gave money to Bernie when he ran in the primary, voted for Stein and other Greens by mail awhile back.

Like others here still not happy with the way things turned out with the Sanders campaign and especially not happy with how the DNC did what they did.

Found a new Dutch documentary via Twitter today that was interesting.

Not all the answers that might have been given as to why Bernie behaved as he did at the Convention and after, but some interesting footage with Jane and some still unanswered questions yet to go.

Check it out if you get time...

New documentary STILL BERNING is out.

Please watch and spread far and wide https://t.co/8Ej6wlrUmg#NotMeUs #BernieSanders — CFP (@Candidates4Prog) November 6, 2016

Like some here I will still support Sanders in his efforts to lead like he is doing just now in California. Probably will not waste my time on OurRevolution given what I saw happen to OFA but who knows...

EDIT: EDITED in response to a request in the comments for a summary:

The Bernie Sanders campaign was a success on several levels and although many have been crushed that it ultimately did not succeed and win the nomination many lessons were learned, people empowered and educated, and there have spun off several organizations which have concrete plans to change the system.

Here is info from the youtube link:

Published on Nov 6, 2016 Bernie Sanders lost the primaries to nominate a US presidential candidate for the Democratic Party to Hillary Clinton. But it was a glorious loss. And it has become a beginning, not an end. The end of the Bernie Sanders campaign marks the start of a political movement. What are the next steps for this movement and what role will it play in future elections? What is its staying power? And how can a new political generation bring democracy back into the hands of the people and make it truly representative? Bernie’s campaign made history by receiving a record number of donations from individual citizens, not Wall Street. For the future this could dramatically reduce the enormous power that corporations, banks and Super PACS currently have in American politics. New technology, apps and software have the potential to make campaigning more accessible and affordable to a much wider variety of people and a new kind of political candidates. Bernie’s urgent campaign message about income inequality and the economy of the 99% has galvanised this new movement into action beyond the primaries, at a time when many people of the Millennial generation and in the middle class find themselves squeezed in a post-crisis economic reality. With: Jane O’Meara Sanders (partner, Bernie’s closest political adviser and founder of Our Revolution), Arun Chaudhary (creative director for Bernie’s online campaign and partner at digital agency Revolution Messaging), Zephyr Teachout (candidate for the US House of Representative in New York’s 19th congressional district), Saikat Chakrabarti (director digital organising technology for ‘Bernie 2016’ and one of the founders of Brand New Congress) and Josh Smith, Rapi Castillo & Jon Culver (Progressive Coders/Coders for Sanders).

Jakkalbessie and I watched it and were quite impressed by what some of the younger supporters of the campaign now are working to accomplish.

Check it out! Would love it if you watch it and come back and comment.... Very positive and inspiring, the perfect vid to watch on election day imo.
