Ruffalo on Bernie: 'He is Pure Class .... Pure Presidential Material'!

[sabrina 1]

Bernie Sanders draws contrast with Hillary Clinton

No matter how hard this reporter tries to make Bernie Sander’s interview about Hillary and Bill Clinton, he just won’t let it happen. Bernie makes his campaign about fighting for the good people of America against the agenda of the Billionaire Class. He is pure class and purely on point and will not let his campaign devolve into one about gossip. Pure presidential material.

'Pure Presidential Material' .... yes, that is exactly what he is!

1. He is exceptionally intelligent, caring, articulate, energetic, honest and courageous.

Compare him to any of the other Presidential candidates on these attributes. I believe that he tops them all.

America is fortunate that such a uniquely qualified person who is willing to server us for four years.

4. We are fortunate, it is a chance in a lifetime to save this country from the terrible course it is

on, and if we don't take, we are going to regret it.

He is everything you said, and this time we have a long, honorable record to prove it.

First time in my living memory I have ever been so enthusiastic about a politician.

5. The question is will enough Americans recover from being propagandized

to recognize this opportunity and elect him?

7. Looks like so far once they get to know him, learn that he isn't just talking, see his long

consistent record on the issues, they ARE recovering. He has gone from 3% in the polls in Jan to 32% in a recent poll, in just few months as more people get to know him.

8. We hope. But, American voters have dissappointed more often than not. nt

11. I know, and I think part of that is the influence of the Corporate Media. Bernie is USING the media

but not dependent on it. His rise in popularity is due mainly to his intelligent use of the New Media. He has been using it himself to stay in touch with the people for a long time.

He has a literal army of supporters online all connnecting with each other, making sure people KNOW when he has events coming up, ensuring there will be huge crowds there. OWS members are playing a big part in this, using the excellent tactics they used to spread that movement from what was supposed to be a couple of days in ONE CITY to all over the world.

Now they are making sure people know about Bernie. HE supported THEM so now they are supporting him.

As he said, 'never underestimate the power of the social media'.

So for that reason alone, I think more people will learn about him, and any negative effects of the Old Media are quickly dealt with online and sent out to tens of thousands of people.

12. Thank you for the very well thought out response. Actually, I haven't been paying as much

attention to social media as I should have. There's a good chance that your evaluations have merit.

Great post!

[Cheese Sandwich]

6. nice one

And Ruffalo is not only a celebrity but also a real leader too on the anti-fracking stuff.

9. K&R. Mark is right, Presidential indeed. Sanders is also a statesman as Thom Hartmann noted.

Mark has worked as an anti-fracking advocate esp. in New York state for some time. Every person helps the in the fight against pollution and corporate destruction.
