Whose campaign is this?

It is your campaign.

This campaign to elect Bernie Sanders as President of the United States begins with you, and me. It is not a campaign of big money and banksters and elites.

It is the People's campaign.

Our first goal is to make sure our fellow Democrats turn out in each and every precinct when the primary rolls around. The best way to do that is to start local and begin occupying local Democratic party organizations.

Each local party has lists of the members who vote and we start with those party members, telling them about Bernie.

Expect resistance from the party leaders as they are conditioned to vote for the establishment candidate. But, you will see that through the course of your campaign many of the leaders will come to see Bernie as the best candidate. If they continue to obstruct, go around them and make sure every party meeting has more and more Bernie campaigners occupying the seats.

It is up to us to elect Bernie. Our rewards for winning this campaign will be great, and our children will thanks us.

At 74 I've never felt an election was any more important than this one.
