I know everyone here is in need of a liitle motivation. So here ya go.

His name is Michael Gibino. In a letter I personally received from him last week, Michael promised that if elected as a national delegate he would actually run from the Twin Cities all the way to Philadelphia. I was privileged to meet him at the state convention in Minneapolis and very happy to see that with my support, he actually won his "trip" to Philadelphia as a National delegate for Bernie. So, starting June 25, he's going to run 1200 miles to the nation convention. I doubt if I could even run around the block. If he can find the energy to run all the way for Bernie, I'm sure the rest of us can find the energy to fight for Bernie, too.


Here's a link to his fundraiser page:

I thought the link read bunions4bernie, probably because I have a pair of those bad boys myself.

Don't feel bad. These days, I can't even walk around the block.

Thanks for letting us know about this young man. Sent him a donation. It will be fun to keep track of him.

A super tragic story in the local news a little while back about a man who was walking across the US giving talks to kids about anti-bullying, which took his son. Along the way, the dad got hit and killed in Co.

Not to harsh the crap out of your thread...
