I just thought it was relevant info. (I live in Boston.(

I suspect the RW wants to boost Bernie because they think he's unelectable. In which case, they may be in for a nasty shock.

fox news has been very kind to bernie. and it ain't cuz they like him

they think he can be easily defeated in a ge

or, maybe used to think so.....

they're use to being wrong.

smacks it out of the park

...(in spite of some Rovian sabotage and Koch-fiend interference) the Profiteer Plutarchs may decide: "Fine, you idealists think you can fix things by doing what should have been done decades ago? Go ahead and try, WE"VE ALREADY LOOTED the place!!"

is the worst driving experience in the world? I've heard people say that. I hated driving in Houston and Atlanta, but I've heard that Boston is nothing to play with.

Sorry for that OT question, just curious.

I don't think it's near as bad as L.A. or Manhattan.

It's a thing of beauty.

about the disreputable polling etc.
fuck em.

Can't wait to hear the next bit of good news!

eom

Sorry, you just can't spin this.

His message is broad.

The science of this is a bit like capillary action with water continuing to infuse the message. Of course this is the state next to Vermont.

Go Bernie… Your message is B R O A D !!!

Get all scienc-y on me! I don't know what you just said but I think I agree.

Imagine (if you will) the photo below with three cups. However, one cup of liquid is colored red and one blue, on either side of an empty cup. Insert a wade of paper towel and let "capillary action" pull red and blue liquid into the empty cup. This happens by capillary action.


But, by using my strange imagination of the Bernie Sanders capillary action, the cups of all red states and blue states would harmonize eventually evolve into a healing purple hue.

Imagine that! Healing HUMANS.

More folks are beginning to understand...Bernie means real change...

Bernie can open the door...but we still have to walk through.
Electing him would merely be the first step. The next would be to support him and pressure other politicians to support him as well!

We should also be trying, where we each live, to get voting machines out of the process and to make sure people are registered to vote, can get an absentee ballot, if they need one, etc.

I'm kind of amazed at how many people in my area are so very pro-Bernie. I've even had a few people evangelize to me about him, thinking I wasn't already for Bernie. Quite amazing really!

Its so energizing to see fellow supporters out and about!

someone could not mock me or argue about it. IMO, it's great. I don't agree with people who say we all should be able to post anywhere on the board. I don't have a need for more places on this board to argue. Er, I mean, discuss.

Sometimes all you want is some civil discourse... sometimes all you get is a "discussion" with a rabid wombat.

So Fierce!!!

Totally stealing that acronym btw. Hope you don't mind

Without Bernie as president, doors will remain closed...The fight will never end, but for democracy to survive, politicians will have to enact the policy proposals Bernie is making...For instance, much work must be done to take control of local and state governments away from corporate masters...demolishing gerrymandering, for instance, will give voters hope that they are actually part of the process...

Progressives are the most thoughtful people, working to make a better world...the list of changes is long, but the work for change must continue...

but goodgodamn this is sweeet. People Power can still beat cash if we put in the work! Time to Double Down on donations and volunteering!

Thanksgiving and New Year is not politics time. So, I would pay attention in early November and, of course, early January.

Iowa Caucus is 2/1/16.....We're getting prepared!

He'd never heard of him before, but was very interested and asked a number of questions - one of which was "You mean he's running against Hillary?" Me: "Yes". Him: Oh! (BIG SMILE), & wrote down Bernie's name to look him up on the web.

Note to self: Get additional bumper sticker - instead of my present ones which simply say: Bernie Sanders 2016, one that spells out BERNIE SANDERS FOR PRESIDENT 2016.

left and above, looking over and beyond a perplexed and sad Hillary. (Too bad the bottom banner reports that Trump's support in GOP is eroding. DEMs need him strong, energetic and ripping angry at the GOP convention.)

I am on the mailing list of a RWer (long story). He was solid for Trump to start with, saying Trump tells the truth, then started saying, "He's going to shoot himself in the foot. We have to back someone else."

He is the best candidate to me but this country is f*ed up.

And then The Shrub served 2 terms, and look what happened=)

It might be more about context (this time, economic) rather than traditional political thinking.

Go, Bernie, Go...for ALL our sakes.

But letting Fate (see :Money) decide who that candidate is going to be, isn't acceptable to me anymore. It's also not conductive to that which calls itself Democracy.

who will turn out in huge number for Bernie come election time. For those who still think socialism is bad, you don't have to run away from the label or try to downplay it. Just ask them "don't you like parks and libraries, police and fire departments, public transit, museums, the post office, the military, the VA, the Interstate Highway system, airports, public schools, subsidies for farmers, NASA, NIH, research grants for colleges?" We have a lot of socialism to be proud of in this country.

not be the best place for you. This group is for supporters who want him to win. We are determined to do whatever we can to make it happen. If every person who said they liked Bernie voted for him, he'd win in a landslide.

'Cause that's what he is.

Where did that term come from? Has he ever said he was a socialist? He has said he is a Democrtic Socialist. Big Fracking difference.

But the conservatives want to try to smear him wit "avowed socialist". Show me a link.

Predictions of his un-electability come from those that fear change. Too bad, the movement has started.

The class war has two sides. Which side are you on?

An "avowed" socialist. I think "avowed" means baptised in blood.

Sanders on the correct side of the class war. How about your candidate?

Lets use the word "BERNIENOMICS" intsead :]

They've either ignored him (and his amazing come-from-behind successes) or subtly denigrated him in an article, so I suspect the fact that it's a Boston Herald poll got their attention.

But I was sad to see that they couldn't even mention it on the front page, not even in the "Politics" list.

2 pieces of good news on the same page.

It accurately portrays him as being out on the campaign trail, and engaging with the voters.
