Bill Maher did an important interview of Bernie Sanders.

While the interview has a value, there was too much emphasis on the danger of Donald Trump without a balanced look at the dangers of Clinton. Also, we need a Plan B in case Donald Trump does get elected. That would be to elect enough Progressives to Congress so that Congress will be able to stop Trump when he tries to do bad things. Not all Democrats now in Congress are on the correct side of many issues. Most of the Republicans in Congress are not on the correct side of most issues.

Naked Capitalism has the article Contradictions at the Kitchen Table: Sanders, Obama, and Clinton at the Democratic National Convention.

This is a pretty devastating analysis of our country’s condition and the Democratic National Convention. It does not flatter any politician, including Jill Stein.

Check the charts above in “The Kitchen Table in Chart Form,” and you’ll see that Obama’s “everyone who has not yet felt the progress” is, like, 90% of the population if you use the kitchen table metric of concrete material benefits given to working class households.

This after a candidate explicitly calling for (dread word) socialism — which, for those who came in late, is all about the power imbalance between labor and capital — took 45% of the Democrat vote in a grotesquely rigged primary!

[CLINTON:] But we haven’t done a good enough job showing that we get what you’re going through, and that we’re going to do something about it.
