(57,349 posts)99. Is that what he's been doing all this time?
Here he is selling books in West Virginia ...oh wait, no - that's Bernie hosting a town hall in West Virginia:
Here he is selling books in Michigan - rats! Sorry, that's Bernie at a health care rally to save the ACA:
Here he is selling books to women in Vermont - wait, no I'm wrong again, that's Bernie at the Women's march:
Here's Bernie selling books to workers in Mississippi - whoops! My bad - that's Bernie standing up for factory workers in Mississippi:
And finally here he is selling books in Topeka. Dammit! Wrong again - he was speaking to Kansas Democrats:
