of smaller Grass Roots groups that can be reached simultaneously thru social media. This allows rest and would lower his travel schedule.

All candidates in 2008 said afterwards how grueling the campaign trail is, how much stamina you need.

My hope is that the crowds are energizing him, not draining him.

than massive rallies. It is just so exciting to see, hear and feel others also feeling the Bern. The enthusiasm created is infectious. Fantastic that so many millennials are in attendance, democracy can seem abstract until one experiences such events and realizes that power actually can reside in the people if they are willing to commit and give the cause their all.

He is going to get the movement he needs to begin the changes necessary for this country. I remember the predictions that he would have no support in Red Stated. He just keeps telling the truth and moving on while the nay sayers are stuck in the past.

I'm proud of my hometown.

I hope that Frankie Carter Randolph and Billie Carr, the matriarchs and founders of the Harris County Democrats, the progressive wing of the Harris County Democratic Party, are smiling down from heaven. They founded the Harris County Democrats way back in the 1950s because they were disgusted by "Democrats for Eisenhower". And that was before the Republicans turned batshit crazy.
