Bernie wouldnt be leading in Iowa and New Hampshire without you! Keep building the political revolution #FeelTheBern

We, Bernie and his army of volunteers, did this in just 100 days!

And they did it IN SPITE of the Corporate Media.

They did it in SPITE of and without the supposedly necessary Corporate Donors.

And without any help from the DNC.

Give us another 100 days and see what happens!


Bernie has the most enthusiastic, committed volunteer army I have ever seen and THEY made this campaign the success that it is.

Bernie made it easy because he is delivering the message the people want to hear.

Bernie in Iowa this past weekend:

The crowd certainly helped, over 500 in all, a turnout local Democrats said was larger than any Iowa Caucus event they’ve had this early in a cycle. They had placed 400 white folding chairs on the dirt-caked concrete floor at the local county fairgrounds, a location switch made necessary by the number of RSVPs.

1. 48 more to go :)

I would absolutely love to see Bernie sweep the table, show that Americans everywhere are dedicated to change.

2. Wouldn't he get Vermont easily? I don't know if polling is happening there though.

I think he'll get Iowa and NH and Vermont at this point.

I wonder which is the next state to land in his likely column because this ain't over yet.

3. I guess he needs to start spending more time in the next batch of states whose primaries come along.

The ones Hillary is counting on as her 'firewall'. Break one of those out of the pack next, and crash her plan B like he has broken her plan A.

5. I think his campaign strategy has been brilliant. If he had gone all over the

country BEFORE scoring some real victories in some CRITICAL states, he would not have been nearly as successful as he now will be after he wins at least ONE of those states.

So his campaign focused on shoring up some wins in states that are critical in this race. This eliminates the 'he's not a viable candidate' meme that would be used to discourage people from supporting him, EVEN IF they wanted to.

NOW he can, and IS branching out to other states, and as he visits them, attracting huge crowds, his army of volunteers get to work in their individual states to get people interested in his campaign. PLUS now we can say 'yes, he certainly is viable, eg, he's beating Hillary in NH and in Iowa.'

Nothing succeeds like success, and I think this campaign was well thought out before Bernie decided to enter the race.

9. I just read that apparently the Dem leadership IS getting worried and that if Bernie looks like he

will win the nomination, they will find someone to replace Hillary to try to stop him!!

So iow, what the people want doesn't count to the current Dem leadership!

I wonder if they understand how angry the people are already, but if they do this, how much MORE angry they will be???

10. I've felt this way for quite a bit after noticing something

I've noticed that the powers that be have picked a favorite for us and that favorite isn't even running. Biden.

The media already has the interesting horse race they always clamor for, the underdog vs the established one and the underdog is gaining an edge.

and yet, instead of reporting on that excellent fight in the ring, they're looking elsewhere the whole time. I'm highly skeptical.

11. They should have learned from the last two mid-terms that they won't be picking candidates for the

people anymore. The current leadership does not represent the people. THAT is WHY Bernie is doing so well. So if they want to lose, then they can continue to ignore the people. But it is not THEIR PARTY. It is the People's Party and while the people will no longer accept THEIR Third Way candidates, this is a fight for the Party as much as for the WH.
