Afterword . . .

(from Outsider in the White House by Bernie Sanders with Huck Gutman, Afterword by John Nichols)
". . . Sanders was outspent and crudely attacked in the 2006 race - especially for his lonely votes to defend civil liberties. Yet he secured the Senate seat that for a century and a half had been won only be Republicans, taking 65 percent of the vote to just 32 percent for Tarrant. Sanders won every county in the state by a landslide, and carried even conservative communities.  All those town hall meetings over all those years, all that talk about kitchen-table economics, had forged a connection that could not be severed by big money and negative ads. "Maybe that's the lesson of Bernie," explained Margrete Strand Rangnes. "He doesn't worry so much about winning one election. He's in it for the long haul, because that's how you build the awareness and the trust that allows you to get beyond the spin and talk to people about the real issues in their lives. . . "

The Attraction . . .

. . . of Trump. . . as explained by http://dailyrover.com/news/2015/07/07/what-explains-donald-trumps-appeal/ (my reactions in parentheses)
• Candor (Candor-yes. Insightful, logical, intelligent, solution-oriented? - NO)

• Leadership (of a country?  - NO)

• Independence and incorruptibility (Yes and, hmmmm)

• The outsider (Outside of mainstream politics, yes. Any other benefit?  I'm listening. . . )

• The negotiator  (Convince me)

• The populist (How much of the population, you say?)

• Celebrity (Right on the money.  [No pun intended])

. . . the web site FactCheck.org cited a half-dozen statements in Trump’s announcement speech that have been mistaken, false or deceptive.  (Check it out, Trump-lovers.  A little knowledge can be a good thing)
