Bernie Sanders
Related: About this forumWoot! Woo hoo!
Just had two adorable canvassers for Bernie come knocking at my door. I gave them both a soda pop. Since I told them that both my husband and I were Bernie or bust people they didn't stay long but enjoyed the soda.
This is in Dayton Ohio in the city proper so Bernie has a definite ground game going on here! He just may pull this out!
This was a couple of hours ago but I couldn't type then I was pretty baked off a special cookie a friend made. Rofl! O! O! O! And they gave me a big Bernie sticker too.

Maybe you should send Mrs Clinton that recipe. After we inaugurate President Sanders. It's good for pain.

(4,225 posts)Um.... to be clear... rofl! I did not pass out special cookies to the canvasers nor they to me. Rofl! Though that might be a great idea to hand them out at trump rallies and watch the fights fizzle. Lol! And he'll yeah! Jtuck004 we should h
Give the recipe to Clinton after Bernie wins president. It will make her mellow out! Rofl!

He's up on the stage, jumping up and down and insisting they carry out the protesters. Meanwhile, in the audience, everyone is laughing, grabbing signs, but wrapping them around their heads, yelling "Look at me I'm KKK, hear me roar" and then breaking off into peals of laughter, making plans to raid all the fast food restaurants and bodegas in the neighborhood.
Poor ol' real estate swindler at the front of the room wouldn't know what hit 'im. What do you do when your cadre of grayshirts lay down their clubs and pick up a pipe? He's got such a stick up his ass he would probably have a seizure and fall out right there.
Now that is an image I believe you,myself, and most of America as well as the world would love to see. Rofl! You have a way with words Jtuck004! I could clearly picture that in my mind.

I live in Dayton and had two Bernie visitors today, too! I told them I had already voted for him, they celebrated. I thanked them for volunteering.
Hopefully his campaigns ground game will win the day! They were so cute! College aged kids. I live down by Miami valley hospital in southpark Charin.

(4,532 posts)Its just common sense, the next President is going to be a Democrat or a Republican. I'm gonna do what I can to make sure he/she is a Democrat.

I have already put up over 20 Bernie signs I purchased myself, and handed out 10 bumper stickers, with more to come.

(4,225 posts)Go scottie55! I am loving all the energy coming out of Seattle for Bernie and their politics in general. Ohio is a very weird mix of folks, biblebelt,blue collar,high tech, and very educated folks. We have alot of colleges here...... it can go either way depending on the weather. Sigh.

(885 posts)I was having abysmal luck. Of the 97 doors I knocked on today in Southern Illinois I'd say 75 of them weren't home (or asleep, or ignoring the door). Of the people I actually talked to around 6 or 7 houses were going for Bernie, 3 for Trump, 4 or 5 still undecided (which amazes me), 6 or 7 not going for Bernie (never got a clear answer from any if they were for Hillary or Republicans), and 2 or 3 who weren't voting. I think I convinced one or two houses who were leaning Bernie to go vote that may not have otherwise.
Going to go back out tomorrow and see if I can improve my luck.
