Entire post is at the above link to the Bernie Group.

Good morning everyone. I started to post this in General Discussion. However, I guess the post in the Bernie Sanders Group to which this post links is about the Democratic Primary as much as it is about Bernie's birthday, so here it went.

1. HAPPY BIRTHDAY SENATOR SANDERS

[merrily]

5. I am sure he appreciates it!

However, if you follow the link in the OP to the post in the Bernie Group, you will find a link to his virtual birthday "card" that you can "sign" if you would like. Just please don't use their link to donate.

2. Donated another $10 to celebrate!

It may be Bernie's birthday but we're the ones who got a gift when he entered the race!

19. Family of Virgos!

granddaughters was yesterday on the 7th, Bernie's today & mine's coming up on the 16th. there are a few more, but suffice to say September rules!

[merrily]

20. Cool. My son is a Virgo.

[Motown_Johnny]

21. I sent $25 (+10% tip)

I kinda wish I got a T-shirt out of it, but it is his birthday not mine.

[merrily]

22. LOL! Thanks for that donation and for that laugh.

T Shirts are $25 at the Bernie store--and the black one is a limited edition. Union made in the USA and your purchase helps Bernie, too. What a deal!

27. Thanks so much, azmom! Even aside from Bernie, I would give a lot to see Omaha Steve's face

right after he checks the donations tomorrow morning. (Cut off on the daily reporting is midnight, but I don't know if that is East Coast time or what.)

[davidpdx]

29. Just donated via the DU Act Blue link

[merrily]

30. Thanks, david. In my book (which is unofficial), everything donation in September counts as birthday

money! In any event, it does all go to Sanders and it does all help all Americans.

[Omaha Steve]

31. Yes thank you

I was afraid after the $ bomb success (106 new contributions, totaling $3,755.88) yesterday we would have several days of nothing coming in.

[davidpdx]

32. Well I missed the bomb

I meant to donate yesterday, but after quite a crappy day I was tired and forgot. Is the $16,871 the current number we are at as of 9/9? Mine should have put it over $16,900.

[Omaha Steve]

33. Yes that is the current total!

There is lag of several minutes from the time you donate to it showing up on the tote board.
