Former Labor Secretary Robert Reich has endorsed Bernie Sanders in the Democratic presidential primary.

Reich wrote:

I endorse Bernie Sanders for president of the United States. He’s leading a movement to reclaim America for the many, not the few. And such a political mobilization – a ‘political revolution,’ as he puts it – is the only means by which we can get the nation back from the moneyed interests that now control so much of our economy and democracy.

This extraordinary concentration of income, wealth, and political power at the very top imperils all else – our economy, our democracy, the revival of the American middle class, the prospects for the poor and for people of color, the necessity of slowing and reversing climate change, and a sensible foreign policy not influenced by the ‘military-industrial complex,’ as President Dwight Eisenhower once called it. It is the fundamental prerequisite: We have little hope of achieving positive change on any front unless the American people are once again in control.


While there are some Sanders supporters who are vowing “Bernie or bust,” most of the Sanders folks are like Sec. Reich. They understand the value of keeping a Democrat in the White House. If Hillary Clinton wins the Democratic nomination, it is certain that Sen. Sanders will do his part to motivate his supporters to vote for her.

Former Sec. Reich is one of the top liberal economic thinkers in the country. His books have helped to shape and define a generation of economic thought on income inequality. The endorsement of former Sec. Reich is a big one for Bernie Sanders, as his support adds a powerful voice to the Sanders political revolution.

I have the deepest respect and admiration for Hillary Clinton, and if she wins the Democratic primary I’ll work my heart out to help her become president. But I believe Bernie Sanders is the agent of change this nation so desperately needs.

Sanders said he was proud to be endorsed by Reich, “Bob Reich was one of the most effective secretaries of labor in modern American history. He is one of the foremost economic thinkers in this country focusing on income inequality and the needs of working people. In 2002, he ran a great campaign for governor of Massachusetts. I am proud and delighted to have the support of Robert Reich.”

Sad but true....Again I ask... if Hillary's last name was
not Clinton, would we be talking about her at all? The
woman is a capricious war-monger, and all this affection
being lavished on her by the black masses will come to
be rued when she is power. The Clintons are the pen-
ultimate opportunists, and when circumstance suits them,
they will turn on their black supporters....They did this
on various occasions during their previous incarnation
of power...This whole so-called Hillary Clinton presidential
run, is in the final analysis just an attempt by Bill Clinton to
scheme the 22nd Amendment. The sagacity and magnanimity
of George Washington, and every president since but FDR, be
damned; Bill Clinton is going to have his 3rd and 4th terms.
If we are gullible enough, and Chelsea takes her turn at empire,
then a 5th and 6th term too, subject only the whims of age
and mortality, as they seem to be the only forces capable of
interrupting his devious desires and designs..

But the time needed to take such a journey maybe an assert
Sanders, soon to be 75, lacks. If only this revolution
beheld a younger man at its head... But then maybe our despair
maybe overstated; if circumstance gives birth to a revolutionary
in the mold of the intrepid and irrepressible Bernie, whose
age better conduces to prosecution of this noble struggle, our
cause might yet not be lost..

Howard Dean was the "reincarnator" of the progressive
movement; Barack Obama, Occupy Wall Street, and Bernie
Sander very much the progeny of its sense and mentality.
The travails of Bernie may signal the birth pains, rather than
the dying kicks of a permanent ideology, that confronts and
refutes conservatism, especially if likely Democratic nominee,
Hillary Clinton, is defeated or sabotaged by the GOP.

But we have some who said they would have voted for Biden who is 1 year younger than Sanders at 74. Clinton is 69 Trump is 70 and Carson is 65.

So is age really an issue ?
