Bernie Postcard Blitz

This coming Friday, May 13th, over 4,000 people will send seven ( or more) postcards to the DNC, Hillary for America, CNN, NBC, CBS, FOX, and The New York Times.https://m.facebook.com/events/982488475140174
Postcard Blitz in Support of Bernie Sanders sends real, tangible, NOTICEABLE evidence of our determination to champion democracy.
I filled out 40, with a special one going to NPR to inform them that I will never again listen or support them financially.
Imagine the impact of thousands of pieces of mail arriving with the same message, Bernie Or Bust. It has a visual impact an email does not. They must touch it, handle it, process it. It cannot merely be deleted.
Please join. There is a Facebook ( this is helpful so we know the number of participants)event you can rsvp'd to or you can join the Twitter page.
Details
777: Seven postcards, Seven Stamps, Seven addresses.

This is what the event is about, a targeted blitz on mainstream media, the Democratic National Committee, And Hillary Clinton.
We want it to be known that Bernie Sanders is the best candidate and should be selected as the Democratic Nominee for the 2016 Election. This is "Bernie or Bust" at its finest.

Date: Friday May 13, 2016, Mail to addresses Below

HAND WRITE: “Bernie or Bust” in message area of all 7 post cards. HAND ADDRESS each post card to one of the addresses below. Put, First Class Recommended stamp on postcards and MAIL THE MORNING OF FRIDAY, MAY, 13th, 2016, so that the post date and mail date are the same.

DO NOT PUT Return address on postcard. NO Photocopy cards, postcards must appear as originals. They must not appear as advertisements, to be thrown out when delivered.

Emails are invisible; postcards have bulk and are extremely visual. If enough are sent: Thousands, (Millions?) They will be noticed and acknowledged, possibly unprepared for.
Show the mainstream media, the press, the DNC, and HRC that we mean business when we say, “Bernie or Bust”.

Remember: Make Friday May 13, 2016 the day that will be remembered by those that try and suppress Bernie and our movement. We will not be ignored, only to be asked to support HRC. Let her know we are “Bernie or Bust” for the Democratic nomination for Presidential candidate.

You're on it, and thanks for the update on this! Quick questions:

Do we make these in Word? I've never done anything like this before.

Can you purchase blank postcards at a box office store? Hallmark? Not Staples of course! (because RMoney)

They only cost $.38, and have a really nice tree printed on them.

post office, or on ebay. Celeste got hers on Amazon, but the time's getting close to postmark date so that may not be an option. I've been making my own for months and the images are stored on this site (they should reproduce to 4x6 postcard size if you have any blanks to print them on).
If using blanks - just write Bernie or Bust on them. If you're using picture cards, you can write it on half of the address side. Thanks for participating!

I'll purchase some postcards today. I wish I could have them all have Bernie's photo on them - with the bird! Awesome. Since I can't, maybe I can find some bird postcards!

Bernie, because fuck this shit!!!

Cuba is a dead horse, stop beating it.

Anybody have a list, addresses? I am feeling it, but 7 is not enough for me...

I used thishttp://superdelegatelist.com/list
I'm not sure if the link will work, I haven't used a site like this before but I will make sure you get it. Yes, this link works and I like this list as you can sort it how you like.

Going to buy the cards & stamps today, and write them tonight while watching the results come in.

I plan to include at least three of Vermont's superdelegates as well: Howard Dean, Peter Shumlin and Patrick Leahy.

One question: have you posted this on the Sanders subReddit? I imagine you'd get a huge response there!

To be honest, I figured they would know. I shared it on my tiny subbreddit and to Tim Black's Facebook group and on Twitter and here.

I "personalized" my postcards to let them know I am not one of their "delusional" millenials...
I bought some MA postcards with a picture of Paul Revere on the front, even found some cute bird stamps at the Post office.

I also sent one to NPR, and to all of my superdelegates who have already committed to Hillary (the list posted above works great).
