Last night's rally.

I was lucky enough to be there. Sticking to the 4 paragraph rule, but much more at link.

Analysis Bernie Sanders takes sharper aim at Hillary Clinton as Flint debate looms

If Saturday night’s speech by Bernie Sanders was any indication of his approach to Sunday’s presidential debate, the upcoming clash with Hillary Clinton could be the most interesting and fully-joined of the Democratic campaign season.

Sanders went hard at Clinton over her campaign’s financing, her high-cost speeches to Wall Street insiders and her past embrace of Henry Kissinger as someone she relied on when she served as secretary of State.

He also firmly defended his chances in Michigan — which Clinton is widely expected to win Tuesday — and his national electability.

Speaking to a rapturous crowd at Macomb Community College in the suburbs of Detroit, Sanders made a repetitive point of remarking that he and his campaign had been “listening” to varied voter groups; he specifically cited African Americans, Latinos, women, workers, seniors, students and veterans. It seemed an effort to blunt any notion of his campaign as a vehicle for the young and inexperienced, and to broaden its reach across the landscape of Democratic interest groups.

We didn't start the Bern, but we do keep it Berning. They've done their best to extinguish it, but but the beat goes on.

WH 2017. All the way!!
