We coulda had a real one... Here's to you Bernie, here's to you.
BERNIE SANDERS IS POLLING BETTER THAN THE TOP 3 REPUBLICANS NATIONALLY
BERNIE SANDERS IS THE ONLY CANDIDATE FROM BOTH PARTIES WHO HAS A FAVORABLE RATING IN THE EARLY VOTING STATES
BERNIE SANDERS IS ELECTABLE PASS IT ON
Bernie Sanders is still trailing Hillary by 40 points. Do not get complacent. Do not take the above information as “well he’s polling well so everything’s okay!” he is still not projected to take the Democratic nom. so PLEASE keep spreading the word and keep supporting his campaign and get him into office
Did you know that the Bernie Sanders campaign office in Flint, MI is a water distribution site?
Come visit us at 600 Harrison between 9 am and 9 pm, we’ll be more than happy to help out!

“But I’ll be your president”
YESSSS
Senator Bernie Sanders is running for President on a very simple message: enough is enough. Find out more about his stance on the issues here, donate to his campaign here, and look for him in the six recently-announced Democratic primary debates this fall.
Ok, I see you
I’m glad this is going around. People, Bernie stands for those of us who aren’t rich, who aren’t white, who aren’t in positions to abuse their power. There’s a LOT of hype going around because the media says Bernie can’t be elected (how’s that for pretentious? I thought voters decided that?) and because it’s easy to capitalize on buzzwords and then define them on the fly rather than define them by what they actually mean.
There is a HUGE volume of content out there spoken directly by Bernie. For decades his message has been consistent and unflinching. Just like this. Repost his actual words. Take away the media’s power to color this important man’s bid for president by refusing to say what they want you to think he says.
And then think. Of all the candidates running, do any of them speak like this? Do any of them have a message that’s about us, the little people? Do any of them actually give a shit?
Bernie does. I’ve met him a few times. He is…this. No games.
He did an AMA on reddit today for anyone interested.
I don’t even live in the states and I am tempted to donate to this man.
I’ve been a big fan of Bernie Sanders for a minute and I’m glad he’s added his voice to the presidential race and debates.
If we have to have another white man as president, please let it be him.
The more I learn about Bernie Sanders, the more impressed I am with him.
I normally don’t say this but this needs more notes. his biggest financial backers of labor unions who can’t shell out millions rich people and mega corporations can. a big part of Bernie’s campaign is gonna be word of mouth and social media.
tumblr: hillary is so embarrassing doing all this stuff to seem hip
tumblr: *draws bernie sanders in a flower crown*
ok but are you really going to try to defend ‘just like your abuela’
not to mention theres a wildass difference between a grownass woman and her PR group, also made of grownass people, deciding “explain how college debt feels in 3 emoticons or less!” is a Good Move that those Vapid+Illogical Millennials will love, and a bunch of minors making shitty edits in their own space.
like, theres a huge damn difference between adults trying to manipulate an electorate group in literally the MOST incompetent and condescending way ive ever seen, and a bunch of 15 year olds making edits in their own damn space for themselves. its not like bernie is trying to pull the flower crown shit himself. i dont understand this post at all
For all the fucking hype that Bernie Sanders gets you’d think he would have done better. You fucking shit heads sit here not voting meanwhile reblogging shit supporting Bernie. Your bitch ass blog isn’t going to make a difference you dickwad. YOU NEED TO GO OUT AND FUCKING VOTE.
in case you were wondering how badly we have fucking failed so far
THIS IS HOW FUCKING BAD. HILLARY HAS TRIPLE THE VOTES. TRIPLE.
get off your ass and vote. tell your mom to vote. remind your classmates to vote. and i s2g, TALK ABOUT BERNIE TO ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN FOR TEN SECONDS TOGETHER.
This reactionary accusatory garbage has got to fucking stop.
First of all, Hillary doesn’t have triple the votes. YOu’re taking into account the superdelegates (that dark blue bar) that aren’t pledged until after the popular vote is complete. The majority of superdelegates go to whoever won the popular vote. Historically. If/when Bernie wins the popular vote, they will switch to him, because they literally always do.
Hillary doesn’t have triple the votes. The current numbers are B 349: H 544. She’s ahead by 200 points but she doesn’t even have double his delegates.
Second, Bernie knew this was how Super Tuesday was gonna go. He knew which states were more progressive and he focused on those. The more progressive states come after March 15th which is where we’re going to see a huge surge in his numbers. Super Tuesday went pretty much as expected. Some close races, some sore loses, and the 70 point lead in Vermont.
Third, and the real reason I’m addressing this post: you need to stop reacting like this and blaming the mostly-teenage majority on a website for the opinions of an entire nation. You know that a massive number of people on this website use it as an escape and suffer from emotional stress and anxiety. So stop shouting them down and telling them they failed, that they’re shit heads, that they’re running a ‘bitch ass blog’. It’s a gross reaction. It’s unhealthy. No one person on this website is responsible for the way the caucuses on one night went but you’re making them feel like it’s personally their fault.
Fucking quit it. It’s mean. It’s accusatory. It’s not how you build confidence in a campaign.
Thank you Droogums
Minimum wage: $7.25
$7.25 x 40 hour full time work week: $290
$290 x 4 weeks per month: $1,160
In every Southern state (didn’t have time to look at the rest of the country) you can find some sort of studio apartment for around $500 per month, sometimes less than that. Why bother lying about something so easily disproven?
Because Bernie Sanders supporters aren’t going to fact check him, and they’ll ignore any contrary evidence that’s presented to them anyways.
Things like this really tick me off and It’s not political or anything but it’s the fact that you think all that money is there. Here’s what I mean;
That weekly check comes to, according to you, 290. Most places DO NOT pay for your half hour lunch that is required by law. So your beginning number was wrong. $7.25 x 7.5 hours a day x 5 days a week only gets you $271.88. Most people in America get paid bi-weekly, so let’s double it to get the budget. $543.75. That’s GROSS, not NET. Out of that comes anywhere between 10% and 15% taxes depending on state so we’ll low ball it at 10%. Automatically down to $489.38 a pay check. Now health insurance. Usually anywhere from 70-100 a pay check for the cheapest plans. Again, we’ll low ball and go $70. So now we have $419.39 a paycheck. x 2 = $839.
But again, you seem to think that’s fair. So let’s proceed. You say rent is $500? Okay. This person now has $339 left to buy groceries for the whole month, pay utilities, car payment, car insurance, and gas money to get to work.
Those are the bare needs. You have to eat. You have to pay for heat, water, garbage removal, gas and or electricity because apartments do not always include things and rarely all of the above. Most cities in America do not have public transportation. Mine doesn’t despite the fact that our population is over 15,000 people, not counting a taxi. If you have a car, you have to pay that. If you have a car, legally you have to have car insurance. You have to pay that. You have to have gas in that car to get to work to make that money.
Now if you can tell me you can get all of that out of $339 you’re lying.
You are so focused on rent that you aren’t thinking about everything else people have to pay for. Rent was an example. This is a breakdown of the budget you gave me and it’s not possible to live off that in 2017 America.
And BECAUSE this person makes over $800 a month, they probably won’t qualify for financial aid or food stamps. $800 is the line in my state where they won’t help you. No food stamps, financial aid, or government housing if you make more than $800 a month.
