GRASSROOTS (n): the common or ordinary people, especially as contrasted with the leadership or elite of a political party, social organization, etc "Bernie Sanders Raised Over $40,000,000 in February Solely From Small Grassroots Donations" ✊✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 people in #SuperTuesday states: no matter whom you choose, please get out there tomorrow and exercise your right to vote! NOTE: my main intent in drawing these silly cartoons is to teach and not to preach…but I can’t help but comment on things that inspire me, good and bad. I champion things I support and lampoon things I oppose. I am a firm believer in speaking one’s mind in a deliberate and respectful way. When I was in school I learned the most from teachers who were passionate and thoughtful. Even if I didn’t agree with everything they said, I respected them for sharing their opinions. Good teachers, I think, point you in the right direction; bad teachers keep you cloistered from reality. I don’t expect that a silly vocab cartoon will get everyone to jump on the Bernie bandwagon, but I still feel compelled to do what I can to get his message out there since he is facing a mountain of establishment opposition and propaganda. The Internet and social media is the media of the grassroots, the media of the people. I hope you’ll all be kind enough to indulge me some social commentary every once in a while, especially when it comes to stuff as relevant and important as the future of our democracy ✌🏽️🇺🇸 #mcm#Bernie #BernieSanders #FeeltheBern #BernieSander2016 #Bernie2016 #grassroots #artistsforBernie #artistsforBernieSanders #makedonalddrumpfagain
