A Rally for Bernie Sanders May Wind Up in Your Living Room


July 16, 2015



Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont is coming soon to a house party near you, albeit digitally.

On July 29, the Sanders campaign will host coordinated house parties and organizing rallies around the world. And while Mr. Sanders would love to be at all of them, he is bound to his Senate duties in Washington.

So he’ll beam himself in via a livestream link.

“We have a technology available to us that Barack Obama and Howard Dean did not have,” Mr. Sanders said in an interview with First Draft. “And the idea that I can simultaneously be speaking to people located in 1,000 different places is pretty, pretty exciting.”

The party planning for the event will also be almost entirely digital. Hosts will set up events on the campaign website, and “super volunteers,” or “builders” as Mr. Sanders calls them, will help.

I hope the big guy has Bernie in his living room with martha serving mini tacos.

13. We are going to do this

We are going to make this a piece of our history.

And we can.

We have to do our damnedest to make this a nation to be proud of, and for our family and friends to be proud of. The USA is the light in the dark, and it will shine.

Screw you.

19. I remain absolutely amazed...

At how there were about 1000 of these home based meetings posted a few days ago (and even more have now been added)...then came the email blast and...they filled up! Some have 12 people, some have 20, some as big as 100...

There could easily be 25,000 or more Americans watching and listening!

Go Bernie!

Good God these mutts are helplessly and hopelessly in search of a messiah to rain down freebies on them.

Then I would sic the doggies on the parasites. If that didn't clear the room, I have other, more forceful methods.
