BERNIE SANDERS: Almost 7,000 of my supporters just signed up to run for office
Submitted by Amanda Matthews on Fri, 06/17/2016 - 8:20pmBernie Sanders has inspired thousands of supporters to express interest in running for political office.
After the Vermont senator made an impassioned plea to his supporters during a Thursday-night webcast to carry the "political revolution" forward, his campaign released a statement claiming that nearly 6,700 of his people said that they'd be interested in seeking elected office.

Submitted by Alligator Ed on Fri, 06/17/2016 - 4:44pmYes, folks, think of our forebears in days gone by. Think of War Hero, U.S. Grant who turned the tide and won the Civil War. Think of Professional Politician Warren Harding and his fondness for tea-pots. What did they have in common besides being Republican Presidents? For different reasons, each of them had administrations riddled with corruption.
