[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

3. Interesting question.

I've never seen it. Guess you could demand his birth certificate to find out, or look for birth announcements in the papers for Sept 8th, 1941 in NYC.

[boston bean]

4. LOL. I know it is not a pressing issue....

thought someone might know. I was just curious.

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

8. Didn't spot it in quick googling, but I also didn't dig through every result.

It's probably something fairly dull and traditional.

[boston bean]

12. I've googled it as well and come up empty.

Maybe it's just that he doesn't have one??

5. is this what keeps you awake at night?

??????????????????????

[boston bean]

6. no, not really. It's just a question... thought someone might know the answer to.

I will admit I have been wondering for a little bit though..... not that it means anything...

Sometimes a question is a question and just looking to see if someone knows the answer.

[m-lekktor]

7. seriously though, I don't think he does!

check this link under full name it says : Bernard "Bernie" Sanders

9. maybe some inquiring DUer can ask him on the Tom Hartman show today.

Today is the day he does his weekly town hall, right?

[Buns_of_Fire]

29. "Bernie" is his middle name, too? Interesting.

Bernie Bernie Sanders. Kinda like "Bond, James Bond."

[FSogol]

10. Hussein?

Just kidding...

[alcibiades_mystery]

18. Damn you beat me to it!!!!

[FSogol]

21. Maybe it's Mohammed or Hajii. That would make some freeper heads blow up good.

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

20. Xaxnar!

I demand to see his earth certificate!

[FSogol]

22. Long Form Earth Certificate....

[Quackers]

13. I'm pissed at you!

Here I was enjoying this great morning when I stumbled across your thread. I have yet to find the answer so here I will sit until I figure it out. Damn OCD! lol

[boston bean]

14. I suspect lots of people have googled it and can't find an answer....

LOL

[gollygee]

16. I did google

I was hoping for something awesome, but I wonder if he doesn't have one.

Bernie Danger Sanders. "Danger is my middle name."

[boston bean]

19. LOL. But now that you've questioned, don't you want to know the answer??

To this very simple question, that means nothing in the realm of anything???

[GP6971]

39. What do you mean by that? Just curious. n/t

[Quackers]

24. This is what I found so far.

http://www.jamesmadisonalumni.org/wall.html

His picture is the 2nd one on the bottom row. It lost his name. Unfortunately, the only pic I can find of the wall is too blurry.

I've searched for yearbook photos, diplomas, college degrees, tax returns, and still no luck. :/

[boston bean]

25. It must be a conspiracy.... LOL!

[Iggo]

15. Hell, around these parts, it's hard to tell if he has a last name!

Clinton, too, for that matter.

[Buns_of_Fire]

26. They have transcended the need for last names.

Like:
Cherilyn Sarkisian = "Cher"
Paul Hewson = "Bono"
George Walker Bush = "Shit-fer-Brains"

[QC]

23. Probably Karl Marx!

[Hoyt]

27. If he wins, we'll have to give him one. BS won't look good in media headlines.

[boston bean]

28. Harry S. Truman and no one knows what the S stands for, right??

It's not unprecedented, I suppose! LOL

30. A little bio on Bernard Sanders (Glassberg):

Early life and education

Bernie Sanders was born on September 8, 1941, in Brooklyn, New York, the son of Eli and Dorothy (Glassberg) Sanders.[14][15] His father was a Jewish immigrant from Poland; most of his family was killed during the Holocaust.[16] His mother was born to Jewish parents in New York.[17][18] He graduated from James Madison High School in Brooklyn, where he had competed on his school's track team.

He has a B.A. In political science.

[boston bean]

31. Yes, I have read that, and it is interesting and sad.

[PoliticAverse]

32. No. n/t

[NuclearDem]

33. It's M-E-Y-E-R

[DawgHouse]

34. There is an article in the Sheboygan Press dated Nov 2 1976

The article mentions the Democratic gubernatorial race in VT and says "the race is close, complicated by the entry of Liberty Union candidate Bernard J Sanders."

Also, there is a birth certificate (OH NOES!) for Levi Noah Sanders (St Johnsbury, Caledonia, Vermont, USA 1969) that specifically says "None" in the space for fathers middle name. That is if I am looking at the correct birth certificate because to be honest, I do not know that much about Sanders' private life.

And... all this googling about Sen Sanders has made me very much a fan

35. Time to call on (graphic warning)

ORLY TAITZ

[frylock]

37. One response had it right & only one - only IT rings true!

President Bernie Sanders! And to stand up effectively & to make a real difference to the rich & power elite like those who "are" the U.S. congress, there will need to be large & constant activist statement that can not be denied Are you willing to do what you came here to do? To be the people who you've been waiting for???
