@emrazz 1/16 So this is how I came to support Sanders - before he announced his candidacy he was not on my radar screen at all. Then, in late 2014, I started to see social media posts of his talking about individual issues like healthcare, income inequality, student debt, etc. @emrazz 2/16 I was on FMLA leave caring for my mom. She was a lifelong Dem & champion of the underdog; her mom was a Suffragette. Caregiving is flurries of activity interspersed w/ long periods of nothing, I had blocks of time on my hands & I began copying and pasting Bernies posts.
