I am so proud of my native Michigan tonight...

We know what Hillary was shoveling wasn't snow.

1. Don't eat it if it's yellow!

[SamKnause]

2. Thank you Michigan and all those wonderful Berners !!!!!

It will be my turn on March 15th, in Ohio.

I hope Bernie wins.

It would make me so very happy !!!!!!!!!!!

6. Calhoun. Good old Battle Creek.

Now a Vegas resident but I'm thinking of retiring to go back to fly fishing off a canoe.

[Kalidurga]

7. Oh I love Battle Creek

I was there on a class field trip. It was the first big city I saw outside of Jackson where my grandma took me to go shopping for school clothes.

9. It's changed a lot since I lived there....

I was there in the 70s and went back in the 90's.

Back in the 70s you stood a real chance of getting stuck by a train doing switching operations downtown. It would crawl forever at 5mph, stop, then back up. Those tracks are gone. The old Depot near the library is now a restaurant.

There are still some fantastic old homes there.

10. I bet, my town didn't change much at all though.

I lived in Jonesville for a while then Coldwater then a town so small it has no post office and isn't even on the map. Bankers it's just south of Hillsdale.

11. A town in Michigan is only considered to be "small" if it doesn't have a lake.

[Kalidurga]

12. Oh Bankers has a lake. It's bigger than the amount of land space they have.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

13. Is that Mosquito Larva Lake by any chance?

[Kalidurga]

14. Close, Bankers Lake and a whole bunch of other lakes.

But, Bankers was the one we hung out at cuz it was walking distance. We went fishin with our dad at Baw Beese Lake a whole lot. I have been thinking a lot about my home state lately so beautiful yet it has been made unlivable by a greedy system.

17. Our main lake was spelled "Goguac" but everyone pronounced it "Goad-whack"....

Big enough for water skiing hang gliders.

Swimming meant minnows nibbling on your toes.

8. Me too! PROUD to be a MICHIGANDER!

We don't like people who twist the truth.

We don't like obvious pandering.

And we don't like being told how we "are going to vote" !



I haven't felt this good about a primary/caucus result in Michigan,
since working like a dog to help Ted Kennedy win the caucuses in 1980,
against similar expectations...

18. Michigan produced Gerald Ford who spent his time in office drinking beer and watching football.

15. Love all y'all!!

So proud of you.......and thankful!

[AtomicKitten]

16. Way to go, Michigan.
