a first class human being, and people's representative.

Walks the talk. It's all been said before ... I would so love for
this guy to be our next POTUS.

Surrounded by handlers, advisors, communications specialists, and bouncers to keep the media and people at bay.



Go get 'em, Bernie!

It helps me believe that he really means what he says when he speaks.

I really don't care much for excessive, ostentatious candidates who frivolously waste vast quantities of our resources just with their lifestyle, and who need to be filthy rich, and have expensive things, to make themselves feel important.

Bernie is not like them.

"Money"

Money, get away
Get a good job with more pay and you're O.K.
Money, it's a gas
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
New car, caviar, four star daydream,
Think I'll buy me a football team

Money, get back
I'm all right, Jack, keep your hands off of my stack.
Money, it's a hit
Don't give me that do goody good bullshit
I'm in the hi-fidelity first class traveling set
And I think I need a Lear jet

Money, it's a crime
Share it fairly but don't take a slice of my pie
Money, so they say
Is the root of all evil today
But if you ask for a rise it's no surprise that they're giving none away

gets from one venue to another. He seems like a man satisfied to ride in a coach seat on an airliner. I hope he stays away from charter companies. There have been far too many accidents for reasons of crew error and poor maintenance practices.
