I, and I'm sure others, needed this to refocus on the positives which are many!

I caucused in Las Vegas yesterday for Bernie. It was a disorganized mess from registration through the caucus and delegate selection. In my precinct, the guy running the process dismissed everyone before the delegates were selected. If we hadn't jumped up and stopped everyone and reminded them that we needed delegates to represent our vote at the next caucus - yesterday would have been a waste. Almost a deliberate attempt not to register delegates. So we got it straightened out but damn. I dont know if we would have won, but I'm sure it would have been a lot closer.

I am a delegate to go to the county caucus in April and I know we are outnumbered but we will be better prepared to document any attempt to misrepresent or affect the actual results.

Its a long race and if we have to independent so be it.

Give 'em Hell Bernie!!

Endorsements, recognition, funds and supporters are growing week by week.

It ain't over, by far. Bernie was a long distance runner, and still is in this race.

...... that it is a huge probability that Hillary will win the nomination. She has name recognition and operatives positioned everywhere to boost her chances (however possible). She has been running for years and years now.

But she lost the last one...so ....


Beside, Sanders has started something I hope won't just go away.

And now that Bernie's added his voice and the voices of millions of followers, we might actually get some needed changes.
