WE have to be Bernie's 50-State Strategy [View all]

The Sanders campaign is overwhelmed by the enormous response they've received from a public tired of the same old bought-and-paid-for politicians. They're so overwhelmed they've had no time to contact volunteers or have enough t-shirts made to meet the demands. These are actually outstanding developments, if unforeseen. So, if the campaign doesn't have the time, the money, or the staff to organize us, WE need to organize ourselves. This won't be news to Bernie supporters who already have feet on the ground for Bernie via groups such as Progressive Democrats of America, Meet Ups, blogs, message boards, social media, etc. But what do you say we carry this further, literally? While we're organizing locally how about we ensure we're in contact and coordinate with other groups within our respective states? Effectively implemented, we could establish intra- and inter-state networks equal to anything the Big Boys can buy. So WHEN the primaries come to our respective states, we're ready with the army Bernie is going to need to defeat the Masters of the Universe.

Anyone else interested in brainstorming on this?
