An enthusiastic crowd was forming Sunday morning to hear from presidential candidate Bernie Sanders.
An overflow crowd converged in south Minneapolis to hear from Bernie Sanders, the U.S. senator from Vermont who is running for the Democratic nomination for president.
The line snaked for some time outside the American Indian Center on E. Franklin Avenue for the town hall meeting, which began about 10 a.m. Attendees were standing inside and others were left to wait outside.
“If I’m elected president, you’re going to start paying your fair share of taxes,” Sanders said in a message to the richest of Americans.
He won applause repeatedly for his various proposals to make college education in the United States more affordable, including lowering the interest rate on student loans.
