as always, with Bernie’s appearance staying true to form.
AND did the audience love him or what? 
If anything, he's becoming even more popular. And that was really good to see, if you know what I mean. 
And I really think we need him in the Senate. He and Elizabeth Warren are the ones who are currently stepping up and speaking out more than anyone else. We need 98 more like them! And I wish I had half of his energy! 
I know what you mean.
Bernie just keeps on pushing forward..
Just looking through the posts in this group on his travels, I get worn out! He didn't even take a breather on Labor Day! He is one senator who never stops working for us!
