(10,622 posts)Your post, this one I am responding to now, means more to me at this time than you may know, let me explain.
I am also a member of another site http://jackpineradicals.org/ a site devoted not just to the memory of a long time a member of DU that was one of the greats but no longer with us, it is also a site devoted solely to getting Bernie Sanders elected and to help him realize his vision. I have known dozens of members there for over ten years, some of them from not only DU and JPR but also from other progressive sites that are now defunct. I know a hundred others there less well for less long but respect them.
I posted this same OP there, and not a single brother or sister read it, let alone reply to it, it kinda made me feel I should stop writing OP's all together, because they are largely ignored (when an OP like this is posted in a Bernie stronghold it is time for a would be author of OPs to admit he sucks at it when it is ignored and shunned), so I had to admit I just must suck at it.
But your reply here came just after checking there again after a couple of days of them still shunning me, it made me feel better for what it is worth.
About 1/10 of my few OPs over the past 11 years are in my Journal, you are free to read them all.
Thank you so very much for such kind praise at just the right time.
