Keep that lawn looking good...

And I hope your guy has a good day tomorrow.

and The Black Watch. My house was eclectic. Old gal for Bernie.

We got to grow up listening to the best music....

Guitars, drums, pianos, sax
Simple with amazing lyrics and guitar riffs. Still listen to it. I like today's music but my playlist is filled with late 60s music.

What a beautiful, magical time it was. So much creativity, discovery, joy bursting forth -- amidst the tragedies and turmoil of world around us.

I'd like to see some of those young whippersnappers ON my lawn, with Bernie lawn signs. Might have to get them myself. This old ex-hippie supported McCarthy and voted for McGovern - been around the political block a few times. Now I'm a geezer but just as for-real liberal as ever. Bernie is the best candidate I've seen in a very long time.

You might be an old fart.

Yep, old fart

Older and retired people have the life experiences and the time to pay attention to politics, etc.

I'm surprised Sanders doesn't have overwhelming support from people of his own generation!

All of my old friends like him and plan to vote for him.

his support among seniors could grow stronger as the campaign moves across the country and people get to know him better.

I'm an old fart too, so I remember those days. I became one of those confused Democrats, though I did not vote Republican, but I listened to their shit and they were so sure of themselves, that I sometimes doubted my own common sense.

I'll never do that again.

That no one saw things the same way.....One of the good things about the Interweb was to dispel that illusion

will see my 68th come march 28

Still got most of my hair, mostly gray though, in fact I'm growing it out so I can tie it back. for some reason when I got home and grew it out I never tied it back so I'm well on my way to fixing that.

I'm like you I've been looking for that person who I could say I agree with wholeheartedly and damn if he didn't show up and I'll be damned if I don't support him 100%.

When we bought this place it was fenced and cross fenced and I proceeded to tear them all down, pulled them up by the roots. Come one come all if you aren't my friend when you get here you will be by the time you leave.

I get where you're coming from

I live in an apartment these days...

understood exactly what you were saying and I agree with what you were getting at.

It was a good story that needed to be told and I responded as I did out of respect for that
We are brothers in this fight for what is right.

M$M don't forget us Old Codgers it is us who have worked all our lives to hold this all together. Most of us going about out day quietly and with respect for our fellow humans and other worldly inhabitants. But today we want you all, m$m, to know that we're paying attention and have been watching your sorry asses on what you've been doing to our country. Its you who have allowed this to become as it is. do your fucking job assholes and this shit wouldn't have ever gotten to this point. You haven't, now it has.

74 and still going strong and loving the Bern...

Never trust a fart over 30.

Southern California.

Some really creative types have put together some videos featuring Bernie that really rock. One uses the rock anthem, "C'mon, hear the noise." Another one features a guy dressed as Bernie doing a rap song featuring Drake. And then theres the one of "Which side are you on?"

Lots of creativity out there being sent Bernie's way. We ought to have a contest.

All the way down to 14. Three generations!!! And we All fart!! I'm gonna go eat some beans right now!!

My farts are not too fresh and not too ripe They're just right!

and have been looking for a candidate like Bernie for 30 years!

I love "the Bernie kids", I hope they're as serious about this
as they were in 2008. Let NOTHING stop them from VOTING!


'and a little child shall lead them'

And my spouse is an older fart, and he's a "Bernie Bro"... so yeah, us oldsters 'get it' too.

And like the poster before me said, I hope those young folks get out there and vote, too. They are important, it is THEIR future we are all working for.

wildly supporting Bernie as are my kids.

pull my finger .

You raise a good point, there are a boatload of over fifty Bernie supporters. There are also a boatload of upper income supporters, but so far the media only focuses on college students and those in the twenties.

Not sure I qualify for full venting at 56?

For me the moment of truth was when I realized I no longer knew who the latest pop stars were....and didn't care.

I was imagining a, um, group, which made it even funnier.

Thanks for posting this, progree!

I'm an old fart for Bernie too. I'm 66 and not gray yet, but I am starting to lose my hair and I won't pretend to say I don't look my age. I'm a female...and I know I'm supposed to be for Hillary if I'm an older women, but nope nope nope.

So leave room on that lawn for my sign.

Oh, and I've been eating lots of sunchokes, so no shortage of farts here.

How the hell did I get OLD?

My brain says Millenial...the rest of me says Walk Slow.

Go Bernie!

vote for McGovern. Have voted for the Democratic candidate in every election since. Bernie is staunchly progressive. No beating around the bush. No triangulating. No third way Repuke lite bullshit.

Democrats have an historic opportunity to wrest control of the party from the 1%. Bernie's candidacy offers voters a clear choice -- do we want to nominate a progressive champion of change for the 99%, or do we want a center right candidate who represents the status quo, is cozy with Wall Street, voted for the Iraq clusterfuck, and who is hated with a passion by Republicans everywhere?

Proud to join other Boomers in supporting a candidate who has our aching backs!!

parents and children coming together to support a revolution.

How strange is that

We are all in this together!!!

That said, "I'm going to work on Bernie Sanders campaign here at school!" It was right after Bernie announced his candidacy so we hadn't even discussed the election at all. My heart swelled!

He must have remembered all the times I said, "If that man ever runs for president, he's got my vote!"

His girlfriend and all their friends are Bernie supporters too!

I don't know any Clinton supporters.

PEACE
LOVE
BERNIE

guess we did something right

We do not know any Clinton supporters, maybe it is just the company we keep.

But we do know registered Republicans who are not happy with any of their choices and would not vote for Clinton, but they would vote for Sanders. Many of them also crossed party lines to vote for Obama and they would do it again for Sanders.

Great job and how proud you must be as a parent to have raised a child that thinks 'out of the box.'

In our house there's 2 more Baby Boomers and 1 Greatest Generation...so 4 old farts voting for Bernie!

PEACE
LOVE
BERNIE

Much appreciation for it from another boomer fan of Bernie Sanders.

to be part of this club!

Age excuse... yet. Must've been a granola & old yoghurt experiment I concocted together earlier Today.

Bern it UP!
*rz~

LMAO

That's freaking hilarious!

@People4Bernie That song was written by my dad and uncles. My dad loves Bernie and endorses him! Please share it as much as possible! - Dylan Chambers

It was on the air quite a lot around the time my fringe-jacketed boyfriend was introducing me to ... substances. Some strange memories, almost like a dream.

Was it your dad and uncles who wrote it, Stardust?

is like a mini acid trip and pretty much sums up this exhilarating campaign.

Go Bernie!

We all thought we were going to change the world 45-50 years ago, and finally one of us has stepped up to the plate. It makes me happy to know maybe we won't be leaving such a mess to the millennials, after all.

I hope you get what you want for your birthday. Hope we all do!

So maybe that would put me in the "geezer" category.

But I am all for Bernie, because he represents to me the best Democratic presidentiai candidate since Robert Kennedy.
And that is saying a lot, because I have tons of respect for Jimmy Carter and Al Gore.

I'm only 50 and I look like a grey haired gnome.

it took turning 50 to realize i was, in fact, middle-aged. it's been a tough year... lost a couple of my contemporaries to heart attacks and others are stricken with cancer. life takes it's toll.

Sometimes I feel like the survivor, carrying on without them, still feeling them somewhere. Wish they could have lived to see Bernie come onto the scene.

Good for you, tk2kewl, with the cool Berniemobile. Looks like fun!

But let's not get maudlin. Revel in old fartiness, I say.

I feel like I'm carrying it on for all of us, somehow.

You always do. But I believe it if you say it.

i stood on the right side of the street, just before the bridge at JFK's funeral.

I was also in Memphis when MLK was assassinated.

I kept wondering what was happening to the world.

But they must have been very close and real for you.

Your "being there" at these events has a little touch of Forrest Gump to it, if you don't mind my saying so...

I've known a few who didn't share your assessment.

Funny you should bring up Chauncey Gardner, as he's come to mind throughout the years. Various people, including myself, sometimes remind me of him.

fartress for Bernie!

WIN, Bernie, WIN!

I've known about him since he was mayor of Burlington. He was often interviewed on Pacifica radio. I'm so glad he's running. I think the country may be ready for him.

In music there were the "three B's" (Byrds, Beach Boys, Beatles)

--imm

(born in the mid 60s) - can I join your "get off of my lawn" party?? All of my best friends are boomers and I love your taste in music!

And I couldn't agree more with the Bernie bros thing. I think the Bernie supporters are getting a really bad rap.

Haha....Come one come all.

I just got my first AARP ad in the mail.

Next step is "Here's what your Social Security income is estimated to be"

I guess I never got the message that it was time to get old.

And some of the old stuff, like Bowie.

...for what it's worth...

Come on, tell me this isn't catchy as hell. (And this one isn't even one of their newer ones ... it's from '08.)

...so that I could vote for Bernie. I just didn't know it then.

~PEACE~
~LOVE~
~BERNIE~

Love me some Zep too. I just turned 55 and for the first time in my life I'm actually excited about a candidate. Of course back in the 90's I was ecstatic when Bill Clinton got Pappy Bush out before a second term but that didn't really turn out so well in retrospect. I really thought a lot of Hillary back then, but my eyes have been opened to what the Clintons really stand for - and that is the Clintons. I'm feeling the Bern big time.

That reminds me - I have to go out and get a Bernie sign for my lawn!
