I'm an old guard Hillary Clinton supporter; but today I wrote a check to the Bernie Sanders campaign. But what is with the lack of news on Bernie Sanders in mainstream media? Should we write to our newspapers and our TV news outlets and politely ask about this? Why so little coverage of this remarkable man? I invite you guys to offer your comments on Sanders --- as I've been doing all day --- and also to bring us links to articles on Sanders. (Lets continue to be polite, and respectful of our opponents here; America is based on the idea of reason and reasonable discourage in political life.)

I'm going to stick my neck out here. I urge you to donate something, no matter how small, to Bernie Sanders. Let's face it. We all have better things to do with money than support political candidates. We have our bills to pay, our taxes, our health expenses, and we have friends and family members who need money, relatives with kids in school, etc. But! The Bernie Sanders campaign is a place where I think every dollar of a contribution really does count! Every dollar. And that's why I sent my check this morning. I felt like this was a chance for every dollar to be significant! ---- I haven't felt that way about a candidate or a campaign in years and years. I want to be part of what's happening with this candidate --- a man who does NOT have the great billionaire contributors behind him, a campaign where thousands, maybe even millions, of little donations are making up spectacularly well for the lack of the big funders. There is something fresh and vital here with Bernie Sanders, something America badly needs right now! Bernie Sanders may well make it to the finish line here. He may well make it to the White House! So I'm urging you. Think about it. Ten dollars for Bernie.

Once bitten, you 'Feel the Bern'. Anne Rice is very busy and came to Bernie Sanders late. But like many when she studied his policies and record she had a political awakening.
