By the way i asked for it to be unlock. i was willing change the the title

the response was "we don't do that here ". Nice motto for the "democratic" underground.

down with ******ats thats there motto. free speech. yeah I've noticed a tightinging of free speech on DU big time. already been called racist. I haven't been called racist in 30 yrs smh. Was only 10 the last time someone accused me of racist. Now my dad he's racist. big time. But hey if I'm called racist for pointing out Clintons ties to KKK I'll do it again . I didn't know it until a few weeks ago myself. Do people change yeah. But if your going after people who who (Paula Deen ) gotta do it both sides. Hopefully there'll be an alterntive to DU that rises up among the ashes.

There is no free college: even his Senator Leahy of Vt doesn't support Sanders.

..."only appeals to youngsters ( dismissive wave )."

I see people of all ages in that rainbow crowd. Not buying what you're selling, Main Stream Media.

I was there and there were all ages...from newborns to seniors. Amazing being that this was held in the middle of the work day in an area without much parking and not served well by the public transportation system. People walked long distances and stood in lines for hours just to get close enough to hear Bernie...most couldn't see him.

Took my kids and their college-aged friends ( LARGE group ) to the Madison rally a while back ( 10,000+ ) and the energy is always amazing!! Hoping to see Bernie back this way in the near future. The crowds for a general rally are ALWAYS a cross-section of America. I don't even pay attention to MSM accounts anymore; hate being lied to.

"age is just a number' "I'm in my second childhood" and last but not least - I'm a very young 65.
