Bernie Sanders to make a stop in Lehigh ValleyExcerpt:
U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, whose populist mojo has made him a sort of a charm for liberal-leaning Democrats, will be in the Lehigh Valley next week to campaign on behalf of Greg Edwards for Congress.
Sanders is scheduled to speak at a rally, dubbed America for All of Us at 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at Miller Symphony Hall in Allentown.
Doors will open at noon and seating will be granted on a first-come, first-served bases.Pre-registration is encouraged.
Edwards, who is competing against five other Democrats in the 7th District, has often echoed Sanders mantra of debt-free education, universal pre-Kindergarten, Medicare for All and a higher minimum. He was endorsed last week by the Congressional Progressive Caucus which counts Sanders, now an independent, as a member.

Until then, this is getting tedious. Have you considered posting this stuff in the Bernie Sanders Group? I don't go there, because so many excellent DU contributors are blocked from posting in it, but it seems like a natural place for your posts.

They serve that in DC. That's why so many Senators are "full of beans," I understand.
