Bernie Sanders
Related: About this forumShould we change the name of this group to "Our Revolution on DU", or something like that?
I admire Bernie, but he's not running anymore, this is now about our ideals rather than trying to elect one person, and I'm wondering if the change would give us a chance of connecting with people who agree with us but feel bad blood towards Bernie as an individual. I'm thinking Bernie himself would probably be ok with the idea.

always going to feel bad blood towards Bernie. Skinner has answered some form of this question in one way or another several times. Bernie Sanders is not running as a Democratic candidate but he's working his ass off for the people to advance Progressive Democratic values and issues and this group is for supporting him.
I didn't start this thread to cause trouble.
