2. I almost kicked and recommended this before I even watched the video because I knew

how it was going to turn out, but I watched it first anyway and it confirmed my hypothesis.

Thanks for the thread, votesparks.

[cui bono]

3. I was going to just rec it but then I read your post so I kicked it too,

but haven't gotten to watch it since I'm at work and shouldn't be on this site right now.

Peace

5. Thanks!

I've been canvassing in the inner-city for Bernie for over a month now, and the Sanders message is the easiest sell ever. People love his policies. Time after time I see people's eyes light up when they hear his agenda. We are taking Dayton by storm.

[questionseverything]

24. are you the guy in the video?

congrats on this video...this is what we need

bernie's policies presented to average people, they are so surprised that they agree with everything!

[HerbChestnut]

6. That is some outstanding grassroots activism.

Nice job, guys.

[elleng]

7. Didn't interview any of my relatives in the Dayton area,

from whom they would probably obtain different responses.

[votesparks]

12. These are the inner-city voters

who will be crucial to success. The Bernie message resonates when heard.

[delrem]

18. Hehe. Not wanting to rain on any parade, but

that was not "random unedited video" of casual passers by

[elleng]

29. Right.

[Dragonfli]

19. On which policies discussed do you think they would disagree? nt

[elleng]

31. Likely those they perceive as costing them $,

including small businesses.

[questionseverything]

32. single payer would do so much to free small businesses from healthcare costs

and while i know the 15 bucks an hour min wage does sound scary to small business peops i think it would really stimulate the economy so peops had money to spend at other small businesses

lots of studies show people that are paid better are more productive

i think bernies campaign targets multi millionaires and billionaires to pay for programs costs so unless they fall into that group they should benefit

[elleng]

33. Thanks. I don't think they're in that group,

and of course you're right that people paid better are more productive.

[questionseverything]

23. which of his 5 proposals would they disagree with?

[elleng]

30. Maybe (or maybe not!) 'free' college,

as they're in the middle of sending their 3 kids to state colleges! Their father/grandfather, deceased last year, definitely an R, but not sure of the others, they may be more thoughtful than I think he was.

[slipslidingaway]

8. 'Need to put up more schools and less jails ...' n/t

[hedda_foil]

9. Wonderful! Fan-friggin-tastic!

[AgingAmerican]

10. Brilliant

K&R

[Mnemosyne]

11. Lol, first guy he asked thought he said single 'parent' insurance. Said they need all the help they

can get!

Bernie's message resonates with many people.

[sabrina 1]

13. Excellent! Great work. I hope people will look him up now and see for themselves.

His biggest hurdle right now is getting people to know who he is and what he is about.

Fantastic! Thank you for all you are doing!

[Ron Green]

14. The Revolution Will Not Be Televised. Until it's well under way, that is.

Walking the turf and knocking on doors, that's how it's gotta happen.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

15. Yeah,....but Dayton is a Liberal stronghold!!!

I bet every single one of these people own a Volvo!!!

[SoapBox]

16. K & R!

[PatrickforO]

17. K & R! Brilliant!

[in_cog_ni_to]

20. This is why MSM ignores him and why DWS

MUST minimize his debate stage time and exposure to Joe six-pack, blue collar workers and Main street America. Bernie is on the correct side of the most important issues facing the common working class.

[Katashi_itto]

21. K&R!

[LWolf]

22. K & R

[99Forever]

25. People for Bernie. Bernie for the people.

At last, an honest candidate who walks his talk.

*Feel the Bern*

[seafan]

26. This is why DNC head Debbie Wasserman Schultz pans earlier & more debates for the Dem primary.

It originates out of fear for the vulnerability of the stances taken by the "inevitable one". Debbie needs to go. This has been true for years.


Thanks so much for posting this video, votesparks.

27. A Man Of The People - No Citizen Need Settle For The Lesser Of Two Corporate Evils - Go Bernie Go

eom

28. The problem is

that when you question people in general about policies -- in very neutral terms without using buzzwords or catch phrases -- Americans are decidedly liberal -- or progressive, whatever.

But then when you say "Obamacare," Obama, Democrats, Liberal -- they are in opposition to the things they previously approved of.

It's all identity politics.

If the Democrats came up with a way to cure cancer, the GOP would oppose and obstruct it.

[questionseverything]

35. in 2008 my very conservative county went blue for the first time in decades

because we wanted healthcare fixed...the anger comes in from not getting what we were promised

potus said, "what i do not want is people having to pay a fine and still not having healthcare"

but for lots of us over 50 (paying 3 times as much as a young person) that is exactly what we got

not trying to blame potus, just saying that is where we are now...in fact i think potus got us to the point where peops are really ready for socialist healthcare

[hifiguy]

34. Kick and rec.

The more people know about Bernie, the more and more people like him. Honesty does work wonders.
