~ LET THE MEDIA KNOW WE WANT MORE IN DEPTH COVERAGE OF SENATOR BERNIE SANDERS ~
On the Thom Hartmann program today, a CALLER said he's devoting 10% of his income to Bernie Sanders campaign because it's vital to preserving our democracy that's now at stake.

*I hope to heaven Big Ed's Show is 5:00 PM ET, & someone will let me know if incorrect!
(I checked online, but Ed's show has changed slots several times in the last couple years).
We need to tell the MEDIA that we want more in depth coverage of Senator Sanders!!

(41,182 posts)regular folks, labor & 'kitchen table' (and life!) issues. He's good guy; not what some here want but excellent on POPULIST concerns, which are rising fast. Wish they would repeat his 5:00 show, or move it to 7, 8 PM.
*Senator Sanders must receive more lengthy, quality coverage; we need to stress that to the MEDIA*
Amy Goodman will likely have Sen. Sanders on her daily TV program soon, 'DEMOCRACY NOW!'
Do I miss BILL MOYERS now, what a great American He still has a website I think.
~ Bernie will add much discussion and truth for Americans in this very important 2016 Pres. Campaign ~

(6,476 posts)He has to talk fast, gotta love Bernie....he's on the money....tell them Bernie!
Why he's running....how does change take place....poverty and inequality....citizens United. Differences between Hillary and him...TTP...he will help lead the opposition. Money...we can raise small donation....has raised a half million already, in a few hours.
Run strong grass roots campaign. Mobilize...
No president can take DC on alone....need a mass movement...you do 't throw us under the bus like Obama mistakenly did.
Saudi Arabia has the third largest military budget in the world...I didn't know that!
He would selectively use drones with more analysis.
YouTube dialog with Alan Greenspan...need to look that up.
He'd break up the banks! Woot....go Bernie Go!
