Justin Trudeau of the Liberal Party
and his wife before giving his victory speech in Montreal, Canada.
Connect the dots, Bernie Sanders in the U.S, Jeremy Corbyn in
the UK and now Trudeau in Canada ~ a massive shot has been fired across the bow
of the all-powerful global neo conservative corporate state and it's gaining
momentum ~ for the people are tired of war, of being ignored and they are
electing leaders who promise to speak truth to power and their voices can no
longer be ignored or diminished: Allen L Roland, PhD
“Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and
compassion against injustice and lying and greed. If people all over the
world...would do this, it would change the earth.”
~ William Faulkner
Suddenly a new political star has risen. His
name is Justin Trudeau, he’s 43-years-old, and his Liberal Party came out on
top in Monday’s Canadian
national elections ~ effectively ending the
Conservative Party’s nine-year-long neo-conservative stranglehold over Canadian
politics.
As Thom Hartmann writes ~ "No one saw this coming. Back
in August when current Prime Minister Stephen Harper first called for early
elections, the Liberals were getting trounced in the polls by the historically
much more left-wing New Democratic Party, or NDP … At that time it really
looked like the Liberals - Canada’s so-called “natural governing party” ~ were
on the cusp of losing yet another election…. But then something weird
happened. As summer turned to fall, the NDP abandoned its progressive
values and started moving to the right." The die for
defeat was cast and the people spoke much as they are now in the United States
and the UK.

As Hartmann correctly explains ~ Unfortunately,
a lot of establishment Democrats still buy into the right-wing myth that
America is a “center-right nation” when it’s anything but a center-right
nation.
Like Canada, America is a center-left nation ~
despite the mainstream media attempts to convince us otherwise. In fact, a
recent poll by the Progressive Change Institute, shows that Americans overwhelmingly
agree with progressives like Bernie Sanders on key issues from education and
healthcare to the economy which explains Sanders continuing polling strength
~ because he is speaking to main street and not mainstream corporate America.
Like Bernie Sanders, 75 percent of Americans support fair trade
that “protects workers, the environment, and jobs.”
71 percent support giving all students access to a debt-free
college education.
71 percent support a massive infrastructure spending program
aimed at rebuilding our broken roads and bridges and putting people back to
work.
70 percent support expanding Social Security.
59 percent support raising taxes on the wealthy so that
millionaires pay the same amount in taxes as they did during the Reagan administration.
58 percent support breaking up the big banks.
55 percent support a financial transaction or Robin Hood tax.
51 percent support single payer healthcare, and so and so on.
That's an incredible voter base and Sanders is directly tapping
into it as did Trudeau in Canada.
Here
are highlights from Trudeau's victory speech ~
and hear the voice of another champion of the people , along with Sanders and
Corbyn. 3 minute YouTube video ~ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f20lWy2BTr8
Now
you can better understand why Bernie Sanders is continuing to gain traction
while the mainstream media can't believe it ~ and mainly because they are
corporate stooges, like CNN's Toadie
Anderson Cooper, who are drinking their own Kool aid and can't believe that
their own focus groups and the public forums
consistently felt that Sanders won the last Democratic Debate whereas they felt
that Clinton was the obvious winner. Sanders is speaking to American's concerns
and wishes ~ while Hillary is obviously pandering for their vote.
Now
watch how far and how rapidly Bernie Sanders has become the front runner in the
upcoming Democratic Presidential primaries ~ by telling the truth about our
unequal social security system and other concerns while in the process becoming
the true voice of the people.

Canada
was risen from a long neo-conservative nightmare and it appears the United
States is now beginning to realize the very same real possibility with Bernie
Sanders.
As Harrison Finzel writes in The State Press ~ "
Forget about policy for a minute; there is something more important than
tuition-free college or single-payer healthcare that Senator Bernie Sanders
(I-Vt.) is offering the American public: himself. He has rightfully
become the channel for the middle class (and, increasingly) lower class
American rage at the socio-political-economic establishment that has crushed
the American Dream for anybody paying a wink of attention. Like the
great George Carlin
said, you have to be asleep to believe it. That has never been truer than
today."
