I can't answer at to whether "fans" are donating. I do know that supporters are donating. I hope I have helped.

And I'll continue giving monthly for as long as Bernie Sanders speaks for me during his campaign!

5. He got more money from independent donors

the day after he announced ($1.5 million) than anybody else, including the Republican clown car candidates.

If that doesn't tell you something, that he is speaking a language that people understand, nothing will.

Even conservatives are unable to call him dishonest, because he says what he thinks and does what he says he will do. I think we'll have more than a few people cross the divide to vote for him, because they are sick of the bullshit from their candidates, too.

6. Fundraising is going great so far. He already received 1.5 million on the first day he announced.

Labor has always supported him so I'm sure they will continue to do so.

Individuals are setting up fundraisers everywhere.

I don't think he'll have a problem getting what he needs, and more.

And I am not a fan of any politician.

I am supporting Sanders because of his stand on the issues.

If I were to find out he is not what he appears to be, I would simply look for another candidate.

... of my first of many campaign contributions to Senator Sanders team, but I will state it is the single largest one I have ever made. I will also volunteer time to help as I am able.

This is, in my opinion, the most important election of our lifetimes. I intend for our next POTUS to be President Bernie Sanders.


And btw, I don't give a single turd what names neolibs and 1%er buttkissers call me.
