The nomination

Has anyone of us planned how we get Bernie nominated at the convention?

If he wins the most delegates can we expect the DNC to rollover and award him the nomination with all these Superfreak delegates floating around the convention hall. If we don't prepare now, we will be steamrolled at the convention and wondering around in a daze trying to figure out what happened. Does anyone think DWS and the DNC aren't planning their strategy right now?

It will be a continuation of their brainwashing tactics of turning us all into a state of manic depression. The emotional roller coaster rides of extreme highs and lows with primary wins and defeats resulting in a drained and crippled progressive voter. Just look at DU for the ecstasy we experience with wins and the depression and the thoughts of giving up after loses. We have been subjected to this for years and the results has been to get pissed off and walk away or be so drained and abused our willpower is shattered and we give in and submit to vote for a RW Dem. We have to wake up and stop this.

We must be continually planning win/win strategies so we always have a positive position to pursue

leading the campaign, aspirant - but i expect there are some very smart strategic planners on the campaign staff. you bring up some good thoughts. have you considered contacting the staff, directly? they can probably use your energy and then you could reach out to us here on du for any additional assistance to make it happen and the nomination to go smoothly.
