Help support Bernie's run for president --->

Last edited Tue Apr 28, 2015, 11:36 PM - Edit history (1)

First, some quick background - and Agschmid has already taken care of that (Thank you, Agschmid!) here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/10026583686

No one in politics shoots it straight with the American people like Sen. Bernie Sanders does! He is going to need help...BIG HELP!

[div style="float:left;padding-right:20px;"][img][/img]I'm not going to rehash here all the reasons we should support Bernie. Most of you already know why we should support him. Our energies should be focused on spreading the word and raising money for Bernie...

I'd like to quote fellow DUer BrotherIvan (here):

I'm going to start telling everyone I know about Bernie. Get them to watch him on youtube. Whatever it takes so they start listening. That's all they have to do because he tells the TRUTH. I think he could be the next Teddy Roosevelt (and that's not a bad way to showcase him).

And this response by sabrina 1 (here):

I agree, start telling people about him. If everyone who currently supports him can get at least ten other people to support him, and he will need donations, that would be a big help to him.

He does seem to get some media coverage. However there will be smear campaigns to contend with, but I think people are getting really tired about negative campaigns. All it does is show that they candidate isn't confident in their own policies winning an election.


It's time to get to work for Bernie! Spread the word to every one you know!

Thank you.

More people will find they really do agree with Bernie, and it will recall to them what we need.

Independents don't win. He has little name recognition with the general public.

And he's got a year and a half, plenty of time to gain name recognition.

and when I click on my link I go to It doesn't work now so I'd say someone is overworked somewhere.
One of the things that they'll have to fix right off. Its good though in that he should be getting the message there are a lot of us out here who want him. If he keeps his confidence we can win this one.
The world will love us for it too. not to mention the average American

....until Thursday. Contributions made to BERNIE SANDERS.COM go to his Senate campaign committee. He'll set up a new Presidential Committee once the formal announcement is made.
