Bernie Sanders
Related: About this forumStay focused.
We have a wonderful Grass Roots organization emerging and IMO we have come from nothing to leading in Iowa and NH and a few other states.
Now we are falling into this corrupt corporate world of how much money we are taking in, debating what the worthless MSM and their pundits are saying and waiting on the edge of our seats for what the next poll results say. I think I read Bernie hired a polling firm so let's also start publishing those results.
Drawing huge crowds are self and nationally motivating.
Besides social media, how do we truly know Bernie's impact of 23 million debate viewers if they can't be counted by increasingly huge event crowds? Focusing on small gatherings (like HRC) are fine for here or there but we should flex our muscles and let America know we are coming.
Bernie has hired staff in the initial primary states and I haven't seen weekly progress reports that could assist volunteers on what has been successful inroads in recruiting supporters. We are a team and sharing info is vital

all we get is confusion. That's their goal, to twist and spin until they have the viewers so dizzy that they finally agree with the pundits.
We were hoping for big bumps from the debates but now reality is setting in. The DNC and MSM are controlling their TV messages and their dwindling senior viewership is being fed HRC propaganda. Did we really think HRC and her media buddies would step aside and let democracy reign?
We will get something from these debates but we built our foundation on the ground and that's where we will win! TV ads and their counter ads just add to the confusion, so let's spend the AD money on people products
Don't forget this is their turf and we are the visiting team. Our home field is the grass roots revolution where the cheers await.

(1,604 posts)How can you be stoked about the Bern's progress in Iowa in October then call us "righteous" when we caucus?
I don't get it.
Bernie kicked ASS here, and the Democrats of Iowa know it. We'll see it again when we convene in caucus convention in March, and again in June, and finally in Des Moines in July. We live this shit day-in and day-out. It's exhausting at times. But primaries are a lazy cop-out. Primary "results" are a snapshot of 14-hours on one day.
