In reply to the discussion: BERNIE SANDERS: Almost 7,000 of my supporters just signed up to run for office. [View all]TreasonousBastard
(43,049 posts)26. Who the hell are you to lecture me?
A website is not an election. It's not GOTV. It's not fundraising dinners or Meet the Candidate brunches.
Around here we are way past Bernie and his antics. We have a Congressional seat to win back and a President to elect, and we've been doing this for a long time. Bernie is completely irrelevant to the process at this point.
Any Berniacs who find us through his announcement or website are welcome to join the fight, but most of them have already heard of us through our local efforts.
Tomorrow, I will be out collecting signatures for our Congressional primary and passing out literature. That's after I put in 4 or 5 hours at my job.
What will you be doing besides lecturing your elders on an internet board?

You're not the future of the country. Nor are the other 50+ year olds you "work" with.

What's even more depressing, is when you look at the lack of support from local parties.
