Recent Picture of John Lewis standing with Bernie Sanders

Thought this was timely and amusing. How do I post a photo here. I saved it to my computer. I will edit and share it if someone can instruct me.

EDITED: I didn't know that Lewis was referring to never met him in the 1960s. Still amusing but I edited it to reflect that it was a More recent photo.

Sorry for any confusion. I like Lewis. I hope he hears what Bernie is saying and that he too may soon feel the Bern.

you can upload your photo to that, then click Photobucket's "Direct" link to your photo (essentially copying the URL address), and paste it in your DU post.

Looks like he has met him after all. Also, He says in his own book that he never met the Clintons until the 70s so it's not like the Goldwater supporting Hillary Clinton and him met during the marches either.

15. Could be he didn't know him. Bernie is only recently famous.

Anyway, I like Sanders and I like Lewis and the more they listen to each other the better is will be for all of us.

The accusations and questioning of Sen. Sanders on civil rights, that is.

But it demonstrates to me what I already knew ... there is no bottom to where the Clintons will go to get what they want.

And as the great Lily Tomlin once said: "Things are gonna get a whole lot worse before they get worse."
