IF NOT NOW, THEN WHEN?

Perspectives differ, but there is much to be happy about in Sanders' candidacy and successes, just as there are, for different reasons, in Clinton's. I will vote for the Democratic nominee, because I'm a decent human being above all, but I do secretly wish Mr. Sanders was able to win the nomination. If the revolution we do so desperately need doesn't happen NOW, then WHEN? I grew up hearing that as a very young woman...for everything worthwhile...if not NOW then WHEN? I am no longer very young, but I'm still saying that, still hearing that, still hearing "wait, be practical," instead of "yes, we can do that!" ....and that, alone, is something to remember....perhaps to mourn. Perhaps to CHANGE.
