Bernie Sanders for President?

 Bernie Sanders "I am prepared to run for president of the United States"


  He would get crushed. Sadly. We need his voice in the Senate. Why?

  Here's one of our finest moments in 21st Century American Politics. (There are so few...)

The Bernie Sanders "Filibuster"


  Word is that he may run as a (D). I would love to vote for him, but he wouldn't make it out of Iowa.

  I'm not saying it's necessarily a bad thing. If he ran as a Dem, he could still hold his seat in the Senate, and possibly move the discussion a little more leftward. But a Sanders run would be only symbolic. And destructive if he ran as an Independent.

  Sadly, these are the political realities we have to deal with.

  It's just a dream. A sweet dream, but just a pipe dream. And we have our dreamers:

  I like to think we can keep these dreams alive. But it is just tilting at windmills.

http://www.nytimes.com/1989/04/05/us/education-vermont-seeks-tighter-rules-for-prviate-schools.html We made the New York Times http://marthamoxley.com/news/042802gt.htm And our OTHER claim to infamy : Micheal Skakel and the Moxley murder This was one of the places I went to school. A very unique place in a very unique time. Pictured, the dining hall in the main building, "The Lodge", and a few years after the place closed down. For Vershireites with foggy memories (for whatever reasons), or nostalgia: http://web.archive.org/web/20080624190520/http://www.vershireschool.org/ I think Chip Allee put this together, but it's no longer maintained.
