Bernie Sanders
In reply to the discussion: Bernie Sanders Just Drew Almost 3,000 People In a Conservative Stronghold [View all]JDPriestly
(57,936 posts)20. We visited a big bank recently (to withdraw a little money and put it in a credit union).
The bank manager was very nice and we apologized for closing our account. The bank manager looked so sad until my husband said there is an answer to this economy and it is Bernie.
At that the bank manager perked up, got a big smile and said, "Bernie Sanders," and we parted buddies.
Surprising how many people are all for Bernie Sanders. They are everywhere.
I went to a museum for an exposition related to a religious theme wearing my Women for Bernie button and made some new very excited friends that way.
Bernie is bigger than the mainstream media admits, much, much bigger.
Bernie fans are everywhere, in surprising places.
