Bernie Sanders' secret weapon
The Observer once again
http://observer.com/2015/09/bernie-sanders-secret-weapon/
As I have repeatedly written the Sanders campaign is empowered and driven by communications through social media that are under the radar and beyond the vision of old style pundits, old style media, and old style politicians and old style journalists who report about them. But the means of communicationsFacebook, Twitter, Instagram, Reddit, emails, text messages and web sites whose organizing political power most insider politicians and reporters still fail to understandprovide only half the story. The other half, which gives the technology of media whatever power it may possess, is people and it is the people who support him who are the secret weapon of Bernie Sanders.

Jason Wilson, a visiting fellow at the Institute for Social Research at Australias Swinburne University, attended a rally of about 500 Sanders supporters in Portland, Oregon, over the summer.
When I showed up at the cavernous community center, there were over 500 people there all drinking craft beer, talking politics and watching the live broadcast of the senators speech, Wilson wrote in Londons The Guardian.
Granted, crunchy Portland is deep in Sanders heartland. Nevertheless, it was notable that no one I talked to had the least misgivings about Sanders calling himself a socialist; almost all were happy to identify with the term. Few were doctrinaire, many differed in the details of what socialism actually means, but almost all were attracted to Sanders as someone whose policies might alleviate the everyday suffering of those not part of the countrys tiny wealthy elite.
Said one supporter named Chris, who thinks the word socialism has been polluted by fear campaigns, had a message for his right-leaning fellow Americans: Dont make a good idea sound crazy just because your bad idea wants to marginalize so many people.
