Women For Bernie on Facebook and Twitter

11. Excellent post! Would make a great OP. Because going door to door to reach the

people you are reaching, those who have given up on the entire system, is super important. My point about Social Media was that many working class people don't have the time to do that but CAN still do it online from home.

You are correct that the Dem Party, and the Repub Party too btw, have been losing their base due mainly to broken promises made in Campaigns, then abandoned once the campaign is over.

And yes, Obama has created a huge trust issue now for voters, me included, who were so enthusiastic and hopeful when they heard him speak about the issues, in the campaign.

But as you pointed out, we didn't have a record to look at, as we do with Bernie. Listening to him 25 years ago and now, AFTER being elected to the Senate where he voted according to his campaign promises, we DO have that record.

That makes it a lot easier to allay some of the justifiable fears of those who have simply given up.

Every way we can help Bernie to win, going door to door being a big part of that, reaching the huge non partisan vote, 42% are now registered Independents where part of the Dem base went over the past number of years, is super important.

And flooding Social Media with Bernie's positions on issues, with his record over decades, is equally important.

Thanks for you encouraging post. I too have not found it too difficult to get people enthusiastic about him.
