As far away from the common folk as they can.

[Art_from_Ark]

a local kids' show broadcast on KOAM-TV, Pittsburg, Kansas

[Sheepshank]

14. Close circuit tv

From their very own basement ... Or bathrooms depending on how long it's set to broadcast.

[Renew Deal]

15. Max Headroom FTW

[Gregorian]

19. I welcome our ruminant, unicycle commuting presidential candidate.

[oldandhappy]

20. Broom!!

[DJ13]

26. Are you calling

Bernie a witch?!

[leftofcool]

36. Nah, that was what's her face.

What was her name anyway?

[aidbo]

43. Christine O'Donnell! She claims she's not a witch though. Not sure I believe her.

[oldandhappy]

41. No! ha ha It was a joke on me, silly.

[oldandhappy]

42. Lots of people were adding transport suggestions. I added one. Relax.

[DJ13]

[whatchamacallit]

[Scootaloo]

[bigtree]

25. unicorn

[Bleacher Creature]

27. Anyone remember season 3 of Breaking Bad?

They should crawl on their hands and knees like the cousins did when they made started their revenge mission against WW.

[Bread and Circus]

28. By Donkey of Course!!!

Where is the donkey smiley?

[Art_from_Ark]

31. The donkey smiley is here

But you better watch out-- the ride can be a little rough

[PowerToThePeople]

29. Rail is probably the most fuel efficient.

Obviously time is important.

Coach on an airplane is probably ok, though much worse than rail for carbon emissions.

[NuclearDem]

32. EEN ZE VAN

[WillyT]

33. Horse's Ass...

[nc4bo]

34. All of the above. Don't give a shit how they get there

Dems MUST get out there in the trenches to reach those who LIVE and work in the trenches.

Have urban campaign stops at a YMCA, visit inner city community centers, inner city libraries, underserved schools starving for dollars and resources, out in the rurals, visit local Tractor Supply or rent some space on a local farm.

Gotta get out there and meet people on their own turfs, eyeball to eyeball and listen.

Rallies and donor dinners are fine but sometimes ya gotta go to them instead of them coming to you.

Word of mouth and rubbing elbows with a few of the forgotten locals goes a long way to building bridges.

Just my 2 cents.

[Art_from_Ark]

37. I think that's one reason why Bernie travels coach

and stays at places like Motel 6.

[Capt. Obvious]

35. Fung Wah bus

[Recursion]

51. I rode that DC to NY once and *the door fell off*

Seriously. We were on the Turnpike, and the door fell off.

[Capt. Obvious]

52. What better way to show a politician is in touch with the people?

[Recursion]

60. Or at least the pavement (nt)

[azurnoir]

38. on one of these

[Bluenorthwest]

39. Well LBJ took the IRT down to 4th St USA....so I'm saying by train.

nt

[UglyGreed]

40. Nice photo

[Renew Deal]

47. Here's the video

This guy is awesome. I don't know how he gets the goat to hold on.

[UglyGreed]

54. I believe he is delivering the goat

while working for a market or a butcher in Ethiopia. I just find mocking anyone from a poor third world country and comparing it to the way our elite politicians travel is a bit of a stretch.

[Renew Deal]

56. I'm not mocking him

I'm impressed with human ingenuity. The whole argument about how candidates travel doesn't rise beyond the level of mockery, but that's another story.

[UglyGreed]

59. My mistake

I took the picture the wrong way.

[aidbo]

45. By transporter, of course!

[brooklynite]

46. A strategy for the entire advance team

[aidbo]

49. Too bad the picture is in black & white, you can't tell which ones have the red shirt on.

[Recursion]

50. I didn't see "rickshaw", but that's my vote (nt)

[Cosmic Kitten]

53. They should travel in the manner they are accustomed

Best we see a candidate in their
natural environment, not a staged
faux photo op designed
to appeal to low information voters.

[SidDithers]

55. In the way that best gets them where they need to be when they need to be there...nt

Sid

[underpants]

57. Depends on if you are caring your acoustic guitar or you are in the bongo second

[KittyWampus]

58. Hitchhiking- to help get in touch with the common man!

[Renew Deal]

61. Sexist!

[AgingAmerican]

63. While carrying skateboards

...in case they can't get a ride.
