The revolution is ours.

I went to visit Fort Bragg CA last week, in the middle of the town on main street was a Bernie office with american flag all kinds of signs, inside a whole mini store with tshirts for only $5 buttons, bumper stckers, yard signs.

What was different about that? The entire place was donated and run by volunteers, not any paid people from campaign at all. Shirts said mendocino Bernie folks.

How were tshirts so cheap? Lady said people donated almost all of the cost.
