My daughter sent me a couple of links...

She said these were popular with people less than my age. I have not seen them posted here yet.

#BernieorBust and #bernieorbust are being used frequently (I don't do social media, so ).

According to her and my grandchildren, the younger generations are into Bernie and have no interest in Hillary (she told me to quit using HRC because that is for "Human Rights Campaign", which they care about).

I was also reminded that BS was unsuitable for Bernie, because he is about anything but Bull Shit.

I guess in this time of mobile use, all those extra bytes get expensive.

I'm a fogey, I use my desktop for the internet and my mobile for emergency calls and quick texts. I still use my landline for most communications, LOL.

On a final note: I think I've done a damn good job of raising kids who care, who in turn have raised kids to care.

Your daughter and grandchildren are right. Young people love Bernie. He excites them again, he talks about THEIR issues and he's going to bring a lot of young people back into the political process.

I see them all over Social Media, they are DRIVING his campaign, they are using their amazing tech skills to get the word out in very interesting ways to as many people as possible.

I'm sure you are proud of your great family!

So funny, I kept getting emails from HRC and would just trash them.

Then I thought I would unsubscribe, back in early 2008 I had signed on to her campaign. Was I surprised it was the HUMAN RIGHTS CAMPAIGN, so now I read all the emails.

Love the links

In my case, I had signed on to the Human Rights Campaign and was suddenly getting bombarded with Hillary stuff.

I traced it back to Battleground Texas. I thought their purpose was to get more Democrats elected in Texas, only to find out they were dollar and data mining for Hillary.

She has a bit more info to send me via email.

I will have to do a bit of redacting before I post to DU.

Nothing classified mind you, just protecting the innocent.
