  He’s never actually going to fight for anything. keep a close eye on the issue. As soon as the democrats encounter on obstacle they’ll declare that they “don’t have the votes” and then say “vote blue no matter who!” and then continue to do nothing even if they win.

    Once again, the call is to build organized labor across the country, giving workers the power to shape society toward our interests, not to expect the ruling class to voluntary offer concessions that have no benefit to them.

        Again, I think you are misunderstadning the message.The speech is not giving a promise that Bernie Sanders will make gains on behalf of workers.

        Rather, it is giving encouragement to workers to make gains for ourselves, by building our own power against the oligarchs.
