Ask everyone you know about Bernie Sanders

[catnhatnh]

Here in New Hampshire I was shocked by the number of people I nominally considered republican leaning who like and express support for him. Family members I normally consider non-political are starting to voice support.

I think you ought to ask around because what ever is happening this thing is for real...I'm already surprised and beginning to be amazed.

1. 87% of voters want citizens overturned. i think that says something. nt

[catnhatnh]

3. It might be the social media

but I think his name recognition problem may be disappearing.

[seabeyond]

7. oh sure. i said initially that sanders had a chance, because of social media. i have a lot

of first time voters in my house. i see his audience. want they are looking for. sanders is it

[NoJusticeNoPeace]

2. He is exciting

i am going to link to this in every post i do today

6. That is one GREAT video....

...and that gentleman has nailed it. It's time this country truly pays it debt to those they have disenfranchised.

10. Thanks for not accusing me of being OT or spamming LOL everybody is so edgy around here

and all because a kind, well meaning, honest older man decided his voice is needed in our national politics.

I can assure everyone here Hillary is far less angry about Bernie running than many here, but at the same time Bernie is also going to be a HUGE Hillary supporter if it comes down to that.

thanks again

14. ...super ditto to the "edgy".

16. Hey I posted the other way why folks living in my urban core

don't generally vote.

The responses were very telling

Suffice it to say some folks are in for a nasty surprise...

27. You mean "YUGE" supporter, if we're talking about Bernie...

[TheNutcracker]

4. It IS real. Bernie IS real. Chance of a lifetime. Everyone I ask loves Bernie!

[Jackpine Radical]

5. Hamsters (or whatever you call yourselves) always were a little strange.

A lot like cheeseheads that way. I have often mentioned having seen Bush and Feingold yard signs side by side in the '04 election around here.

8. NH does have a weird vibe...

I live in the "Boston North" section of the state. But I live here because I love the whole state and want to make it as blue as most of New England...

9. Same here, it may be Social Media which his supporters are using effectively, but young people

get their news from the internet, not from the MSM.

Once people hear him speak on the issues, there is something about him, sincerity, he seems trustworthy, and when they find that he has a long record to prove it, they are definitely interested.

[99Forever]

11. It truly isn't just about Bernie...

... it's about an organic movement of We the People, that he speaks well for. And he doesn't just talk, he DOES.


Bernie Sanders IS THE REAL DEAL.

[NorthCarolina]

12. He himself has said "This isn't about Bernie"

it's about the American people.

[Enthusiast]

13. This is encouraging. Thank you, catnhatnh.

15. I saw a Bernie Sanders gathering this morning

at the little sandwich shop where I often have breakfast or lunch. It's spreading. This was in Minneapolis.

[SoapBox]

17. I'm hoping...

With some initial caution (because we are very, very early in this election process) that we might get some of the same excitement that there was in 2008 with President Obama...it was exciting, especially after the Bush Reign of Terror.

[Nite Owl]

18. His message is

universal, it appeals to everyone D or R.

[Overseas]

19. K&R. Glad to hear it.

[ErikJ]

20. Good way is to wear a Sanders 2016 T-shirt.

A caller on T Hartmann show told how people ask about Bernie when he wears it.

[CrispyQ]

22. I'm buying this one:

I love it!

[ErikJ]

23. lol. Here's a similar one

Lots to choose from already just googling Sanders 2016 t-shirt

[CrispyQ]

21. My republican cousin has 'liked' every one of my Bernie posts on FB.

If you're the 99%, his message resonates.

[WhaTHellsgoingonhere]

24. confirms what Thom Hartmann said when he lived in VT

People who had Bush signs in their yards also had Sanders signs. He's right on the issues and that resonates with people.

[SmittynMo]

25. Bernie is the ONLY one who:

Is for the lower and middle class. I'm sure this will cross boundaries for both sides. He's also a no bullshit type of guy and tells it like it REALLY is in this country. NO ONE is like Bernie. NO ONE!!! If he makes it past the first round, I'd vote for him in a heartbeat.

[Gothmog]

26. I am a HRC supporter but I honestly like and admire Bernie

Bernie is a very likable person and I agree with most of his policy positions. We are in a primary process and I want to support a viable candidate who can win in the general election. I am not convinced that Bernie can compete against the $889 million being spent by the Kochs or the billion dollars that Jeb could raise and spend
