Don't forget the Bernie Bounce

I have absolutely nothing in common with her.

No personal assistant? No servants? No entourage when you travel? You are capable of driving yourself in a car? You check out your own groceries? buy your clothes online? Cook your own meals? Your kids go to public school? You never considered yourself "dead broke" when you had a $4 million book advance tucked away in your purse?

You do have 2 things in common with her. You're both female and you're both mothers. Well I have those same 2 things in common with her - and also that we're both female lawyers of the same generation. So I have 4 things in common with her, but none of them carry a scintilla of weight when it comes to choosing whom to support for president. I support Bernie Sanders because I believe him to be the best choice for me, for my kids, for my community, for the country and, when it comes to having the USA stop acting as the world's policeman and Big Oil's enforcer, and sucking up our national treasure, i.e., our children as cannon fodder for their military, for the world.

It is time for a real progressive populist movement, but the message needs to be clear and not overly complex and it needs to be repeated over and over to drive it home into the minds of the people.

Then Bernie will win

Of government of, by and for the 1%. Thirty-five years too much of it, in fact.

Go Bernie!!

The gulf between Hillary and the real world is just too enormous.

"Who do we want to hire as triage director? Well let’s start with what we don’t want: a manufactured product person created after conducting surveys, someone who tosses critical emails and balks at turning over financial and tax records. People with dirt.

I am a Bernie mama. Specifically, a single mother who is finding herself increasingly supportive of presidential candidate Bernie Sanders. There are a lot of us—think of it as a loose club. We have no bylaws per se, nor do we ever formally meet. We don’t have tee shirts or bumper stickers…yet. But if we run into one another, say, on the street, or end up having coffee, it comes up and quite quickly there can be no doubt about our solidarity. The world, especially as it regards our kids, is looking mighty Bernie to us. Which is to say we feel this Bernie Sanders guy is a candidate we can get behind, because it is ever more clear that he is behind us, and this monumental task we have before us of launching young humans into the world—pretty much alone.

Allow me to better explain why it is so many of the single mamas I know like this guy (as I sit here in Albuquerque, New Mexico this week, far, far from the Bernie-land of Vermont, I have learned a group of moms in the tiny rural hamlet of Corrales have created a Bernie Sanders float for their small town July 4th parade).

also worried about the future of my children. Bernie is the answer. Cannot even begin to see how Hillary is going to change our world to help my family.
