...Word of Mouth
People tell their friends, who tell their friends..and so on...
.So, in 1948, in the last few weeks, Harry Truman had made a true impact on many people who saw him. He was traveling around the country, talking to people, getting the word out...Honest, down to earth, fair,,,not the rich guy..not the appointed guy who everyone thought would win hands down. In mid July 1948, no one thought Harry had a chance in Hell..But things, began to change as people talked about Harry and what he stood for...And people talked to people and those talked to others..
.And the rich were so sure the rich guy would win, a newspaper printed a headline about the rich guy winning, so early that the headline is now a collector's item, cause the rich guy lost........Truman Won..
Bernie has enough time to spread the word, mouth to mouth.. He is not a rich guy, and never has been. Honest, dependable, voted against the 2nd Bush Iraq War..and so on. Strongly against "income Inequality"
More than enough time to spread the word..one at a time
Here is one that most don't know about..
In mid July, in 1998, , a movie came out. Crude, funny, kind of silly..but fun if you were able to accept some of the obvious filth...It was 4th or 5th on the attendance scale..funny, but not known..............
it was called ....."There is Something About Mary"..
Slowly, it moved up. By Labor Day Weekend.."Something ABout Mary"..had moved up to number 1...very, very rare, almost never done before or since..a movie gradually moving up to be Number 1. from 3rd, 4th or 5th spot.....How???
Word of Mouth, People telling People..
Bernie has enough time..We will see. But my guess is, Bernie is going to make a difference no matter what. Tell everyone about what Bernie really stands for...
