(52 posts)Is it 1 million different people, or if I donate 5 times is it counted as 5 towards the million. I have donated several times, so if I donate again does it count toward a million?

I just hope many many more small contributors pitch in to help get his message out there! We the People CAN take back our country.
Would love to see an election without the choice of Corporate(R) vs Corporate(D). I mean, really.

(2,720 posts)I always differentiate between "I like Bernie Better" supporters and the "DU Hate-Democrats" brigade who have latched onto him as a vehicle for expressing their anger. (Apparently due to the fact that Democrats aren't doing more because Republicans won congress - but logic has never been their strong suit.)
However, Senator Sanders the candidate is not responsible for the behavior of his most counterproductive supporters, no matter how noxious and childish they are.

(13,070 posts)You may want to go back and read the ugly, lying, vitriolic posts about Clinton and her supporters that caused the responses
first defensiveness,
then response in kind,
and finally leaving.
I am amazed at the complete lack of self-awareness of Bernie supporters who started such ugliness and are then surprised at the response.

(25,699 posts)Calling him a segregationist? a rapist? A protector of pedophiles? A gun nut? a Republican with hsi head between women's legs/ A white supremacist?
Shoo.

Clinton supporters went on full-throated attack the minute Bernie started thinking about throwing his hat in.

Evergreen Emerald
(13,070 posts)have taken over the board and are making it difficult to read the BS. You have an inability for self awareness. The ugliness caused many to leave the board.

(34,825 posts)the bullshit against Sanders and his supporters started before he even announced. We were accused of being delusional; of living in a Fantasy Land astride our sparkly unicorns. Shortly thereafter, the head counts of Black people at Sanders' events begin in earnest, along with veiled accusations of soft racism.
The hatred coming from Hillary supporters has been well documented and posted here. What Sanders supporters post here is NOTHING compared to what you see on that shite site. Not even fuckin close. People want to talk shit, but can't handle the push back. Know the game.
