Last night I attended a Bernie organizing event in my apartment building. We ended up having over 200 people. I met a lady who told me about Daily Kos and asked me to post my experience here...so here I am.
At our organizing event, there were people of all ages and races. We had several people who were not politically involved, but Bernie had inspired them to register to vote and get involved. We talked a lot about organizing and how we can register new Bernie voters. We have a great game plan and I think we can win our precinct.
We watched Bernie and listened to his words. We had a chart where we all wrote down why we were supporting Bernie. The call for $15 minimum wage was written multiple times. Single Payer Healthcare. Racial Equality. Economic Equality. Socialism. The list went on and on.
EDITED: Some things people were saying at the party:
At the end we talked about how we must organize for Bernie because our options are very small. Hillary is a money and power hungry person who does not care about anyone but the 1%. She will use minorities to gain power and then her policies do not benefit us. She funnels money to the bankers who are funding her campaign. She is of the corporations and by the corporations. She is not one of us. Not only this, but she is also a war-monger. She voted for the Iraq war. She would kill our environment with deals like the Keystone Pipeline. She was against gay marriage until it became okay for her to be for it. To put it as our group leader said last night, she is a spineless unprincipled weather vane of a politician. We must make sure we defeat her and that Bernie is our nominee and next President!
I hope my experience at my Bernie Community Party was as good as yours. I am glad that Nedra told me about this website!
