the first 3 or four primaries and he said he can build from there. It's a lot of money, but a drop in the bucket thanks to Citizens United. Ultimately he has a plan and it will work. I have absolute faith in his political acumen.

I have a canvassing meeting tomorrow and there are a couple other groups we are working with. I already know of someone who is helping with the campaign by offering their house for meetings and a place for us to gather before canvassing the State Fair.

I could put up at least 3 of them plus I'd be more than happy to feed them...... Also a ride if needed....

Bernie is really going classic grass roots.

You can't buy this kind of loyalty.

I got bumper stickers for mom and myself, a 'rally sign' to use in my front window (my yard signs tend to disappear), and a t-shirt. I decided against the mug simply because I would only be using it at home, so no one would be seeing it, so it wouldn't really help the campaign, only amuse me. Thinking I should have gotten a button as well, since I obviously wouldn't be wearing the t-shirt every time I left the house. Weirdly, the priority mail shipping option was cheaper than the first class.
