I don't think he would take it. He will argue
with HRC about the issues, but not necessarily
with her logo.

Run on that and he's gold. Fuck all that frilly bullshit.Just focus on the issues and he should do just fine. That is if the corporate media gives him a chance.

There is a candidate that is a corporate product and as such a corporate branding is natural.

Sanders is instead a natural candidate and no corporation's product.
Just my opinion of course.


I can do logos however, do you like this one?

that he should have one. It was more of a comment on the sad state of U.S. politics, which to me seems just like more consumerism among an increasingly dumbed-down, incurious culture.

Believe me, I wish it weren't so.

I hope sidestepping the branding may make integrity itself the "brand".

I got what you meant, but I still hope he avoids that entire spectacle and campaigns as he always has.

and I think it distorts the message.

Great start though.

They've been conditioned through propaganda to fear and hate, and not take the time to understand what "left" means.

It's probably better he continues to point out the rightness and common sense of his views, and how wildly wrong the US pattern has been, under Republicans, to bleed the middle class to feed the very tiny super wealthy parasites who live off the US citizens while refusing to give back, and will fight everyone, and bribe everyone to keep their immoral, outrageous advantages over the working class.

I like the one in my post MUCH better.

Someone thought Warren should have a take off on Hillary's corporate style logo, too. We discussed that in the populist group and I said the same thing then.
