Reddit poster at Michigan rally.

[leftcoastmountains]

It's a bad picture, but Bernie just spoke at my university in East Lansing, Michigan. Never before have I ever seen a politician speak so passionately about issues, and never before have I been so moved towards becoming politically active. I love this man, and I love this movement.

I like the photo myself. Looks like a painting!

1. I like the photo leftcoastmountains!

Thank you for taking the time to post it. If you notice in the picture, just about every person is paying very close attention to Bernie Sanders. This isn't a get together, these people appear to be interested in the movement and in what Senator Sanders has to say. I'm so happy about that!

4. You are right. They are watching him intently! It looks like

an impressionist painting like a Monet!

2. I was thinking Rembrandt (the use of light, the depth of color).

Beautiful photo! It would make a great poster--a political poster of an unusual kind that emphasizes all the people, not just the candidate. That surely is a Bernie Sanders message!

5. It really is like a Rembrandt you're right.

3. Thanks, what a wonderful poster. Bernie is such a rare human, I've never

seen one like him in my life, as journalist Matt Taibbi has also said. Had the chance to see and hear Bernie at a public policy forum last June, he was incredible. I learned of him from the weekly Brunch with Bernie hour on Thom Hartmann's prog. talk show. Thom often mentions that he grew up in East Lansing & went to college there.

6. Beautiful! Thank you! nt

7. This is the third time I post this

I was told by one member to post this message to this group where Bernie's supporters might actually read it.

There is a big Arab presence in MI, specifically in Dearborn and its surroundings. They can deliver more than 10,000 votes just in this area alone. You just need to get them to vote. They are all for Bernie. Historically, Arabs are not very much involved in politics here in the US (2008 was an exception). I know that they are all for Bernie. I have relatives and friends there (more than 100), and I know they are all for Bernie. Few of them were contacted by Bernie's campaign. Please relay the message that they need to be contacted and just get them to vote.

HRC destructive policies in the ME is having a big effect on them. Look at Libya ( I wonder what kind of foreign affair experience she is boasting). Libya and Syria are the major source of ISIS operatives. Disgusting. All because of the ill judgment of HRC.

Let me tell you this: 3 candidates will get the US to war if they get to the WH. Cruz, Rubio and HRC. I wonder how much did the Saudis and Qataris pay HRC to convince Obama about Syria and Libya course of action. It has been a disaster. 100's of thousands died and we have ISIS. Utter disaster.

11. Welcome to DU, Bob_Roony!

Someone saw your post and we are now looking actively for help so MI and Dearborn will turn out for Bernie!

Hang in there, and keep posting!

[leftcoastmountains]

18. Thank you!

[Bob_Roony]

21. Thank you

I'm voting soon and convinced few of my colleagues to do the same.

I'm of Lebanese origin and lived through hell before moving to the US 20 years ago. I have seen all kind of crooks, hypocrites, liars criminals etc... I can smell them from 1 mile away. This is why I'm voting for Bernie. He's clean.

14. Hi Bob! A couple of suggestions.

Email the campaign at [e-mail]

Another thing - are you on twitter? If not, sign up. It's so easy.
You can send tweets to @BernieSanders or to @NinaTurner - she's a take charge kind of woman
I wonder if Tulsi Gabbard would do anything with this.

Now will they read it? I don't know.

After that whole thing with the computer firewall being down between the two campaigns a bunch of us were suddenly getting welcome to the Hillary campaign, they had our email addresses and our names - yet we never signed up! And if you remember the msm was in full attack mode against Bernie on this, we had proof it went both ways.
I snooped around and was given that email address, told them what happened and that it wasn't just me; that they could contact me for more info - never heard from them.

All we can do is try! You make a great point about Michigan - they should know this.

If you need more help, don't hesitate to give a shout out.

Welcome to DU

[Bob_Roony]

22. Thank you

Hopefully we'll have Bernie in the WH. The world will be better. Look at all others: disasters.

[Milliesmom]

17. Get in touch with his offices in Michigan

also, post to his website and Facebook page.

[jillan]

25. Great point! He has an office in Flint. There's probably more but I know that one for sure.

20. Welcome to DU!

Thanks for joining. You have an important message for us and I look forward to your posts.

[Bob_Roony]

24. Thank you Hubert

I will soon start writing more about events in the Middle East. Things that the media doesn't tell you about, so you will all know more about the consequence of HRC disastrous policies. 3 weeks we were very close to have a Russian-Turkish war. Very very close. Anyway, this is a different subject, but HRC can never fool those who know the effect of her ill judgment on foreign policy matters.

[HubertHeaver]

26. Thank you, we sorely need your voice!

[silverweb]

27. Welcome, Rob!

[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]Here's hoping Bernie's campaign gets your message and has plans to reach the Arab community in the Dearborn area. Thanks for your persistence in getting the word out!

[font color="purple"]Go, Bernie!
Feelin' The Bern!

29. Are you in Michigan too, Bob?

[Bob_Roony]

30. No.

I'm in another state.

31. In the 90s I worked at a short term stay

And we would get a lot of the merchant seamen as their hall was close by. I got to know a lot of them, and most of the cleaning crew was from Michigan. The guys were from Yeman. That country has had a lot of sorrow in the last decade. Good people, they would make stews and bring it down from the desk. Little trinkets from their travels.

8. Keep taking photos left coast mts!

[leftcoastmountains]

10. I didn't take this photo. The statement is from the person who took it.

I'm not in Michigan this came from a Reddit poster there.
I supplied the link.

15. Oops. Thanks

[AzDar]

12. Go, Bernie GO!!

[tinkerbelle]

13. Love it!

Bernie's passion is contagious. I love seeing those rapt expressions. Thanks for this!

[winterwar]

16. Awesome

I had friends that went, they said it was packed.

[wouldsman]

19. Looks like G Washington in this picture!

I can just hear him, "of the people, by the people, for the people", "lets provide for the general welfare of the people while giving them the opportunity to pursue life liberty and happiness".
Bernie seems to have come out of the age of enlightenment.
