“Do you ever wonder why the pundits, the political class, are always so sure that Americans ‘just aren’t ready’ for something?” wrote the Flint-born director. “And now, this year ‘they’ are claiming that there’s no way a ‘democratic socialist’ can get elected President of the United States.”
“If Hillary’s biggest selling point as to why you should vote for her is, ‘Bernie’s a socialist!’ or ‘A socialist can’t win!’, then she’s lost,” he continued.
“Please vote for Senator Bernie Sanders to be our next President of the United States of America. I wouldn’t ask this of you if I didn’t think we really, truly needed him. And we do. More than we probably know.”
