This is the second tweet I've seen where he goes after ByeDone. This needs to be done to let people know how bad ByeDone has been for the country. And the world.

I like the clean declarative "Bernie Cares About You". We need to capture the narrative in a way that cannot be distorted or belittled. Or, more to the point, when it is distorted or belittled we can easily obliterate said distortion or belittlement.
I hate politics, it seems nothing will ever get some people to get in touch with reality, or as Doc said to Marty, "We may have to blast." Maybe this is just the thing that will crack the veneer of certitude that protects Trump Deranged Supporters from the reality that Trump really doesn't care about anyone or anything but himself and his possessions, but stated as a positive rather than an invective negative.
Bernie has the unique ability to bring people of differing races and socioeconomic status together for a common cause unlike the Repubs where it is every person for themselves.
He is the ONLY politician that has this unique ability.

The reason I use "you" over "people" is actually religious. And the reason I use "cares about" rather than "support" is religious as well. The original target audience is the religious right, so I choose terminology that will speak to them. And I hope everyone else gets it too.
But both are good suggestions and maybe there should be shirts with both variations!

"Support" sounds too cool/paternal. "Care" is warm/maternal - it softens Bernie's maleness for those who want a female president no matter how bad/unsuitable this person is (been there, done that).
"You" sounds too individualist. For myself, it brings to mind Uncle Sam's, "I want YOU!". This meme is owned by the right. It's selfish and divisive: "What can you do for ME and MINE."
"People" is inclusive. It gives a sense of joint ownership and community. I have noticed that Bernie uses this in every one of his speeches. It has become almost synonymous with his platform.

a bit too soft and maternal. Dems are already considered the Mommy Party, so that would double down on that image -- not necessarily what we need to grab back the blue-collar whites in certain states.

Unfortunately, Bernie will have to weather the left's Hillbot Feminazi attacks because he's a 'white male boomer' (That's three strikes against him right from the get go).
#7.2.1 a bit too soft and maternal. Dems are already considered the Mommy Party, so that would double down on that image -- not necessarily what we need to grab back the blue-collar whites in certain states.

but, I don't consider myself christian. I felt the other messages were too niche for me to comment on. This is the best because it can reach more people without dragging JC into it. For the record, I was raised protestant in the north and lost my religion (if I ever had it) back in my teens.
And from the north. But still into spirituality of many flavors.

Although my love for design ultimately persuaded me that typography rules, especially in titles and display materials. I have knowingly been a rule breaker. (ie. I used U.S., above, instead of the preferred US.)

Good one Marilyn
A slight variation on your theme.
Bernie cares!
Do you?
question everything
Well . . . In Texas . . .
I think this would reach people. They know in their hearts who really care about them. Well . . . . they know who does not care about them.

Texas republican politicians . . .
Clearly do not care about them.

Have you seen this Bernie ad?

@snoopydawg have not seen it! I love
have not seen it! I love it, I don't get teary and I got all teary at the end.
Fix The Font
I am not a designer, but the designer in the house agreed with me, the font needs to be "regularized". To my eyes the design is visually "jarring".
I like the clean messaging.
RIP
A very positive message, indeed.

How about
cutting it to three words?
Bernie
Supports
You
Neither Russia nor China is our enemy.
Neither Iran nor Venezuela are threatening America.
Cuba is a dead horse, stop beating it.
To be frank, I prefer "people" instead of "you"
Bernie has the unique ability to bring people of differing races and socioeconomic status together for a common cause unlike the Repubs where it is every person for themselves.

So simple a change of word,
yet so powerful a shift in meaning. Thank you.

I would like to counter with
Bernie cares about People
Note emphasis on People. Here's my reasoning:
"Support" sounds too cool/paternal. "Care" is warm/maternal - it softens Bernie's maleness for those who want a female president no matter how bad/unsuitable this person is (been there, done that).
"You" sounds too individualist. For myself, it brings to mind Uncle Sam's, "I want YOU!". This meme is owned by the right. It's selfish and divisive: "What can you do for ME and MINE."
"People" is inclusive. It gives a sense of joint ownership and community. I have noticed that Bernie uses this in every one of his speeches. It has become almost synonymous with his platform.
"Care" is indeed
a bit too soft and maternal. Dems are already considered the Mommy Party, so that would double down on that image -- not necessarily what we need to grab back the blue-collar whites in certain states.
"Bernie Standing for the People" works better.
Sounds good to me

such a fabulous ad
Thank you!

I think all critiques here are spot-on and helpful.
I'm glad you are pushing this t-shirt.
I like it!
I'm also a big fan of the "Billionaires should not Exist!" sticker.
I got one in the mail and now I can't find it.
Go Bernie!

Not a protestant anymore either
And from the north. But still into spirituality of many flavors.

The struggle is persistent, though.
You, a rule breaker,
