‘Ride for the Bern’ Woman campaigns for Bernie Sanders on horseback
Mikel Carmon says the country needs Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders to lead the way forward.
To help get the word out on Sanders’ vision for Americans, she’s riding her horse from Cortez to Glenwood Springs.
“Bernie has integrity, and he can’t be bought by big money corporations,” Carmon says of her favorite candidate. “That is getting pretty rare these days.”
Starting out from the Montezuma County fairgrounds last week, Carmon prepared for her “Ride for the Bern” political adventure.
Her trailer is adorned with Bernie for President signs as her horse, Cherokee, rears up then obsessively scratches the ground, eager to go.
“She’s not my first choice because she’s skittish in traffic, but the other one ended up pregnant,” said Carmon, a counselor from Arizona.
