I missed the voting, a car took out the power on our little rural road but when it got back on I had a lovely automated mail in my mail box telling me I am a host of this wonderful group.
I have appointed some hosts and will appoint more and since I don't know what order the vote was in, please forgive me if I screwed up. Now lets all get to work and decide how we want to use this group to get Bernie Sanders elected President in 2016!

These are the current Hosts of this group:

hierarchy Hosts

1 Autumn
2 L0oniX
3 Puglover
4 Agschmid
5 cali
6 smokey nj
7 NYC_SKP
8 TM99
9 marym625

I added a couple more that had requested the admins consider them but they were not included in the voting. These hosts may, overtime change.

So far this group is growing and vibrant. Just what we needed.

[Agschmid]

1. Congrats! I agree with what you said, let's do it!

I'd like to get a message (SOP-ish) pinned to the top, I'll work on a draft.

[FlatBaroque]

2. POWER CORRUPTS!!!

Just kidding. Hope you serve the group well.

11. Did I miss anyone?

I was sent the link to the final post but I have been busy answering mails and haven't read the entire thread

[Ichingcarpenter]

12. well there was one that was not in the voting poll

but its all good........ we have a world time zone to deal with.

[Autumn]

13. Who was it? Someone made the comment that we will need as lot of hosts and I think that

they are right.

[Ichingcarpenter]

15. I also made that comment......... its all good.... but here's the poll

I think you need to have a good discussion with all the hosts.
and get back to the group ..............trolling should be an issue and a lot of good ideas were discussed today and that gets harder to control unless there are rules............and standards..

congrats to you my friend............. you will do well.

[MissDeeds]

40. Excellent group

I trust each of these five. All have a demonstrated commitment to Bernie and his candidacy.

[KoKo]

9. ...!

[Babel_17]

10. Congratulations, here's wishing you ...

Congratulations, here's wishing you "six seasons and a movie".

[BrotherIvan]

14. This seems like a very lively group who is willing to work hard for Bernie

Hope we can keep the enthusiasm and momentum going. With you and the other hosts, that is a great start.

[BrotherIvan]

16. PS, Please check out Zorra's thread

This is the FIRST place to start to support Bernie: getting people registered as Democrats so they can vote in primaries and caucuses. Bernie is going to attract a lot of new people so we have to help them out. If he wins the primary, he can win the general.

17. Congratulations, Autumn. If I can have a quick word about the SOPs?

Glad you're going to be Fearless Leader! I'm sure we want this group to be more open, inclusive and democratic than those that seem to expel as many members as survive to actively participate. Frankly, we're going to need to have a better reputation than those other brands if we hope to attract enough talent to make a difference.

For that reason, I hope that we can minimal rules and adhere to DU rules and jury procedures for running out the odd heretics and removing the occasional full-grown Mountain Troll in the attic. Actually, let's save the heretics, for you never know when they may be useful. In that spirit, I wish you a long and successful term as Bernie Sanders Forum Moderator.

Everyone, go to your windows, open them, and shout out, "Enough is Enough!"

[Autumn]

18. Thank you. I also want this group to be open, inclusive and democratic

and have a small block list. However there are some that cannot be reasoned with no matter how hard one tries and I have asked a host to make the first and hopefully the last block in this group because of that persons actions in this group. You are so right on the heretics.

[Ichingcarpenter]

20. I had two strikes in populist reform forum

cause I couldn't hold my tongue......against a major neo liberal, third way , big mouth.

He went to GD and complained and they attacked me 3 hours after the post.

I got one strike left................

[Autumn]

21. Well Bernie's a populist and you will fit right in here

No strikes for you here.

[Ichingcarpenter]

22. I'm talking about my transparency page. and 'vacation'' time.

Octafish and myself have been targeted........... he has one left too.

[questionseverything]

45. u should be proud to be targeted along with oct

i see him as the keeper of truth and u are also very imformative

[darkangel218]

32. Same here

We can't help their swarm alerts, but at least we can help keeping this group free of trolls.

Cheers for that.

GO BERNIE!!!

[L0oniX]

26. I had to delete my ignore list for this.

Can't deal with who you can't see.

[Agschmid]

43. Agree.

[Elmer S. E. Dump]

19. Congrats, Autumn!

Bernie voter, here!

[Luminous Animal]

24. Congratulations to everyone!

[L0oniX]

25. I guess we should collect or chat about what we want to have pinned.

Rules are obvious but particulars could be added. Links to Bernies websites would be nice. More suggestions please.

[darkangel218]

27. Congrats Autumn

Please ban the trolls and disruptors as fast as you can. There is no room for negativity in the BERNIE SANDERS GROUP!!! Let them take their drama ramma to GD.

Cheers!!!

[Autumn]

29. The one from last night is gone.

[darkangel218]

31. I saw that.

But like Smokie said in the other thread , there are more "subtle" ones.
I, we, have faith in you to silence the disruptors.

[Puglover]

34. There are a few that are on a very tight leash.

I have stated I do NOT want to have a block list as long as some of our groups on DU. However I for one (and I believe my fellow hosts would agree) will not tolerate:

1. Snark aimed either directly or tacitly against Bernie or group members.

2. Shit stirring.

Honestly I moderated DU 2 for 3 years. I have a pretty good radar. And Autumn is absolutely committed to administrating this group to make it as comfortable for Senator Sanders supporters as it can be.

[darkangel218]

36. Thanks, pug.

Luv you all.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

[daleanime]

28. Good crew.....

looking forwards to working with all.

[hootinholler]

33. I can live with that line up

If all Y'all need help you can tap me.

[Katashi_itto]

35. Wooot!

[MannyGoldstein]

37. Faith?

Revenge.

[Autumn]

41. Revenge is a dish best served cold my friend.

The colder the better, and I will have mine

in fact I have had a touch of it.

[TM99]

38. Congratulations Autumn.

I have followed many of your posts in the Populist Reform group and agree that you will make an excellent host.

I just received the email to be another host of this group, and I appreciate the vote of confidence. I look forward to being of service as I may.

[Vincardog]

39. Congratulations now let's get Bernie elected!

[zeemike]

42. looks like a good group of hosts to me

This is one group I may feel comfortable participating in...I usually shun groups.

[Agschmid]

44. Same, I stay out of most.

I know we can do a good job, and get Bernie's message out!

[Scuba]

46. Congrats, you'll be a great host for this group!!!

[awoke_in_2003]

47. I missed the voting

but it looks like a good group

[marym625]

49. Autumn, who else could it be but you?

What a great group of people!

Go Bernie!
