Oh CK, you got railroaded on that hide. That was a double coddle if I ever saw one. Be careful we need you around.

Family emergency, son had surgery so flew from NC to Reno to help with grandbabies. I haven't been to a house party since 2004. Been reading and posting from iPhone and that sucks for an old lady like me.

And thanks for the condolence.

Another poster called Bernie supporters the
"worst people on the interwebz" lol
and got voted to leave it 6-1


Is what it is,
and it's not honest

But how could it be otherwise? After all, it IS a Bernie Sanders event.

We're going to crash one, or at least try.

Hubby and I plan on moving to Portland next summer. We fell in love with the city the first time we visited. Wish I could attend but not home right now and only have an iPhone. Look forward to others posting about event. I will have to look for a Sanders group when I get home to NC

"Crashing the gate" is kinda what this
movement is about anyway.

We've been kept out of the "gated communities"
and outside politics for too long.

Change is coming

There is nothing that compares to
the interactions we had at the
Organizing meeting!

Local precinct leaders, retirees,
college students, vets, and on!

So diverse, so many ideas, so much opportunity!

It's like discovering gold in plain sight!

Best of all....
I'm in a deep red zone.
And the folks who were there ran the gamut.

No other candidate stands a chance as Bernie's message spreads.

I gratuitously took the stage and promoted social media
and suggested a few www's for people to connect on ;~)

When I asked about platforms
Reddit and FB were the most popular.
Reddit rivaled FB!!!

Anywhoo, AWESOME experience!
Very inspiring and lots of work to be done.

If you missed it, don't miss the next round!
