May 2016

They vote as automatons, thoughtlessly for the candidate whose stances on the policies are 1990s, not 2016.

Feel the Bern!

I had a fabulous day campaigning for Bernie yesterday. Just amazing.

People were thanking ME for campaigning for Bernie.

Feel the Bern!

I am excited about how well Bernie is going to do in California and probably in Oregon too.

Climate change is reality in California.

Bernie's climate change, trade and other stances are what California voters want. We live next to the ocean (well some lucky people do, not me, but you know what I mean). We reuse our bags at the grocery store because we are serious about doing every tiny thing we can to protect the ocean and our environment. We want more solar panels and less fossil fuels and we want also more jobs including retraining and jobs for coal miners in the Appalachians. So we want BERNIE!

Again: Feel the Bern!
