Doll costs $80. $25 goes to Bernie campaign, $5 shipping. She gets $50 each doll - which I consider reasonable for cost of materials & time to sew it.

Somehow in this country we have been convinced we need big box stores filled with crap from other countries (the countries that now have our jobs!) ... I'd rather buy fewer things of higher quality.

Kudos to this woman - I hope she sells a bunch of them!
