The Sanders has many staffers that are brilliant and innovative...don't think for one single second that they aren't taking every aspect of this campaign into consideration.

And while Ms. Inevitable continues her $2700 per plate private money grubbing, invitation only "conversations", being roped off from the public at large, giving only select media interviews and has the entrenched establishment puppets out doing the dirty work of trying to bring down Bernie and a BFF at the DNC doing her damnedest to limit exposure and debate...

Bernie keeps talking to the American people...who vote...and who are mad as hell and aren't going to take it anymore.

This is just the beginning and ya'all ain't seen nothing yet.
