It's all about the grassroots, y'all. July 27, 2015 6:31 pm. August 17, 2015. Anatomy of a Bad-Faith Argument. In the previous post. On this blog, I included the following statement:. 8220;For now, though, this is in support of someone who has dedicated their life to the liberation of communities of color here and abroad.

https://thesouthlawn.org/2015/05/08/declaring-independence-why-bernie-sanders-must-lead-america-in-rejecting-our-political-common-sense

It's all about the grassroots, y'all. May 8, 2015 2:31 pm. August 15, 2015. Declaring Independence: Why Bernie Sanders must lead America in rejecting our political “common sense”.
