In reply to the discussion: Thom Hartmann : "Occupy Movement has endorsed Bernie." [View all]sabrina 1
(62,325 posts)18. I asked a legitimate question. OWS is operating all over the country and has different groups

Since the OP is speaking about Bernie, I am assuming he is referring to the group in his state.
Sorry you think every question is a challenge, it isn't.
I am also curious since I am in NY and would love to get a vote on supporting him.
