In reply to the discussion: Bernie Sanders- Now A FACEBOOK INFERNO [View all]Politicub
(12,262 posts)53. People are interested in learning about him
I think a lot of people have in interest in Bernie's positions and what he has to say. I know I do.
Hopefully they won't try to do that at his campaign website or they'll end up scratching their heads.
His website is very thin on content. I mean VERY thin. I've only heard good things about him over the years, and I was looking forward to digging into some of his proposals.
Problem is, they're not there. Well, maybe some crumbs are there. There are some bullet points about his accomplishments - impressive indeed. But very little by way of substance about the future.
I'm sure that's in the works. He would be wise to post more details since there's obviously a hunger from people who want to learn more about him and what he proposes.

Well said, he connects so well as seen in the interest expressed by followers at events like Denver

He's on fire on twitter also. New groups every day, people starting accounts just to support him.

Bernie is reawakening the same hopes we had when John F. Kennedy was our President!
