Bernie Sanders

Let's do it up left.
If you can, take a nap, so you show up at your meeting all bright eyed and NOT Bushy-tailed.
Take with you whatever you think you need for peak functioning:
Water, so you don't have to keep leaving your seat and/or asking your host
A laptop, if you can. There will be streaming. The more screens in the host's home, the better.
Pencils or pens and paper.
Your business cards, if you have same, so you can easily exchange contact info, if you wish. Be careful, though.
If you are driving, maybe stick a folding chair or two in the car, just in case. If not, maybe a beach towel to put on the floor to sit on, if needed.
Bring any info about Bernie you think you might need. Not everyone who attends will have been posting and reading about Bernie every day.
Bright ideas, enthusiasm and encouragement.
When people say they cannot donate, remind them: Bernie asks for donations as small as $3.
MAYBE, a snack to share. A box of cookies or a few bunches of grapes. Bring a disposable serving item for your snack, too. You don't want the host spending the evening setting up a buffet. Nothing too loudly crunchy or too salty.
Comments as to whether the above suggestions are good or counter-productive? More suggestions?
Please keep this thread kicked today.
Most of all, ENJOY. He's running for us!

(248 posts)it will it make them (and you) more comfortable and it will help encourage conversation and involvement by everyone. Ask them why they support Bernie. Tell them why you support Bernie. Who knows, you might make a new friend that you can spend time with campaigning for Bernie.
