I am not a concern troll. [View all]

Look at my post history for confirmation of this. I'm a true blue Bernie supporter and I will do whatever it takes!

But is this Netroots Nation controversy something to be worried about? I read that he handled it well, then I read that he seemed annoyed and was booed off the stage.

That said, is Netroots something that's well known? Is this going to do anything to Bernie in the long run?

I just wanna know. I'm a political noob, I've admitted this before. Bernie is the first politician to actually make me believe there's a chance. I'm new to all of this, I'm actually going to register to vote for the first time in my life for Bernie. Anyways, fill me in. I need knowledge. Thanks in advance.

Who is Bernie shooting at? Scootaloo Jul 2015 #15

He's not shooting anyone, but "Stop Shooting Us" Cheese Sandwich Jul 2015 #17

It's an understandable demand when made at the police who are doing it. Scootaloo Jul 2015 #20
