leftcoastmountains's JournalKing: Bernie Sanders campaign is very much alive, despite mainstream media reports
This morning the mainstream media began declaring that the Bernie Sanders campaign was now near death.
This is ridiculous.
After primaries and caucuses in just three states so far (Iowa, New Hampshire, and Nevada) Bernie Sanders has earned 51 delegates.
Guess how many Hillary Clinton has? It must be huge, right?
Nah.
She also has 51 earned delegates.

Vets for Bernie: Why Thousands of Veterans Are Rallying Behind an Unexpected Candidate
It may come as a surprise then, that thousands and thousands of veterans are "feeling the Bern," as Sanders' supporters are proud to proclaim. So what is it about this Senator from Vermont that has veterans passionately fighting for his election?
Sanders is and has been one of the most vocal champions for active duty service members, veterans, and veteran's rights for the last three decades.
That's right -- the democratic socialist from Vermont, who applied for conscientious objector status during the Vietnam War, has been standing up for veterans for a long, long time -- and Veterans have taken notice.

Hillary Clinton faces one problem she didn't expect: Money
As Clintons network of fundraisers in cash-rich regions like Los Angeles and the San Francisco Bay Area struggles to fill events where tickets typically cost $2,700 the maximum a donor can give in the primary Sanders is not holding any. His money comes almost entirely online and keeps coming and coming, far faster and more steadily than small donations do on Clintons website.
Clintons rainmakers have grown anxious. She began the month with $18 million more in the bank than Sanders, but he is replenishing funds so fast that he has been able to vastly outspend her on the campaign trail lately, enabling him to start building support even in states where she had a months-long head start.
Former California state Treasurer Phil Angelides and Board of Equalization member Fiona Ma, both of whom have raised more than $100,000 for Clinton, said in interviews that they also were confident that Clinton was where she needed to be.

Hillary, as we all know has the big guns behind her. I'm concerned that Bernie's funding will
decrease in the next couple of weeks as reality hits the fan. I've given all I'm permitted. I hope
people keep up the donations and don't get discouraged, that is what
they are counting on!
So Hillary is backed by AOL?
I just recently had to go to this website for my emails. Verizon has changed. Anyway
as support is guiding me through the process Hillary's face pops up. I thought really? What crap.
It really annoyed the hell out of me!
