Stop billionaires controlling the election

America has had terrible presidents for the last 16 years. First, we had George W. Bush, who crashed the economy and got us into wars in the Middle East. Then, we had Barack Obama, who passed out trillions of dollars to the super rich. 
 
 
Now, we have candidates who are either billionaires or their puppets. Donald Trump even wants to sell off 16 trillion in America’s assets  to pay the same super-rich people we bailed out in 2009. 
 
 
There is just one candidate who is standing up to the oligarchy that now controls American politics, and that one candidate is Sen. Bernie Sanders, D-Vermont. 
 
 
That’s why I’m supporting Bernie. If he doesn’t win, democracy itself might die out.
