PDA Super Tuesday Report

Progressive Democrats of America launched our Run Bernie Run campaign urging Bernie Sanders to run for president in 2013. That feels like some time ago, and so much has happened since.

We share Bernie and Jane Sanders' commitment to a 50 state nominating contest to make sure the voices of voters in every state are heard. After tonight, fewer than a third of the states will have weighed in. All Americans should share in this decision, and we respect their chance to support this campaign.

It Ain't Over!

"The Establishment" Won This Round

So far, the establishment, the billionaires, and machine politics have won one decisive victory, and we've won a decisive victory.

Don't believe it. Over the next three weeks, voters will pick delegates in twenty-six primaries and caucuses. Join us standing with Bernie Sanders as we challenge the big money insiders, working together for the political revolution we need.

What Nevada Just Told America

"They" said we couldn't do it. We proved them wrong! This campaign has always been "We the People" vs. "They the Establishment." By backing Bernie, we are standing up to the powerful special interest elite and others who oppose progress. It's not just about Bernie. It's about all of us, working together for the political revolution we need. Please support Progressive Democrats of America (PDA)'s efforts to help Bernie win the nomination and the presidency. Today, the Bernie movement apparently closed the gap from than 54% to less than 5%. Of course we'd have preferred a win, but this was a moral victory.

Help Bernie End "Pay 2 Play" Politics!

As we head into the 2016 election, it has become obvious that money in politics is corrupting our democracy. PDA members can now order a deeply discounted "Pay 2 Play" community screening package that includes a DVD, 50 postcards, two posters and a screening toolkit here.

Money in politics affects all the other issues we care about.  It's why we're not getting single-payer healthcare or addressing the climate crisis or stopping endless wars.  It's why jobs are being shipped overseas and more Americans than ever are behind prison bars.

The Lessons from Iowa

The Message from Iowa: Let's Keep Berning!

Tonight in Iowa we see the beginning of the political revolution so many progressives have worked to ignite and that Bernie Sanders has embraced as his campaign's central theme. It is not a revolution fueled by those already invested with money and power but one built with and for people who believe we can and must do better.

Ever since PDA began its Run Bernie Run petition drive in 2013, we have stayed dedicated to the core issues that we can now legitimately claim have the attention and energy of this presidential race.
