1. Beat me to it!

[Gregorian]

2. It's dynamite. It's odd that it should seem odd to hear normal talk.

[Triana]

3. This explains why Wall St. is more interested in what Hillary has to say

She won't say what Bernie said today. And she won't do any of it either. And they know it. They paid her not to. Mind you I like and admire Hillary and she'll get my vote if Bernie isn't nominated. But her Wall St. ties are of great concern to me. I don't think she'll be too interested in regulating them to the extent that they must be and in breaking up the big banks like they need to be.

So, there's that.

9. An OK speach...

But I didn't hear a single, I know you are but what am I?
So that was a bit disappointing.
Then there was that whole, banks ripped us off,
nobody went to jail, blah blah blah.
Bottom line? He's a socialist. So come on Hilly.
These financial interests can't hang on without ya.

10. What's wrong with being a socialist?

Welcome to DU.
Seriously. I'd like you to explain what is wrong with Sanders being a democratic socialist?

[Stryder]

12. Oh, Sorry.

That really was meant as snark.
But on reread I can see it being taken seriously.
Probably just a bit in my cups about then. I gotta watch that.
Believe me when I say Bernie all the way.
Every month I put my money down for him.
And actually I've been here for years, I just don't
post a lot. And now you can see why.

13. No problem...carry on eom

11. that was amazing! One of the best speeches I've ever heard. Everyone needs to hear it.

It totally jazzed me up, from the "other Sen Sanders'" intro to the raucous ending.
