Dear TBF,
The revolution starts now!
Bernie's success has been a huge shock to the establishment. Bernie has given us a real shot at taking our country back from the billionaire class. Now the only question is: will we, Bernie's millions of supporters, actually do the work that wins presidential campaigns?
Come answer that question with national campaign staff in person in these cities: Austin, Brownsville, Corpus Christi, Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio, and Oklahoma City. (Details below and more cities to come!)
This coming week, we are coming to Texas to talk to you in person about the plan to win and ask you what role you want to play in the victory.

An interesting story. It was at the CWA union hall and the VP of the local CWA was the first speaker. He said in 2007, a young black senator from Chicago called and asked if he could use the hall for a rally. And the rest was history.

(20,192 posts)One of the organizers from the campaign said that we are going to campaign smart - concentrating our efforts on voter registration and GOTV in the urban areas and South Texas. The urban areas are already blue, so it's just a matter of letting people know about Bernie and getting a high voter turn out, especially for early voting. They are not willing to concede Texas to the GOP. They are going for it.
