I am following Bernie's campaign closely and am amazed at his energy!

[ALBliberal]

Events and speeches two sometimes three times a day while continuing his Senate responsibilities. A HC supporter remarked several times when Bernie first entered the race that he had been "loafing around Washington for years getting nothing done." Of course I took that poster to task and I wonder what she's thinking of his campaign pace these days. But honestly I mostly like to hang out with my fellow Bernie supporters here in this forum where so much uplifting positive action on DU can be found.
Stay safe, well, and rested Mr. Sanders. Sending light and love your way!

1. He's the same age as my husband, and in better shape

Ant that's saying a great deal, as DH is in excellent shape.

3. Agree. Thanks. Sending light and love Bernie's way.

Great speech at Liberty University today.

4. My inlaws..

Are 87 and 85. And they can run circles around this 53 year old. I wish I knew their secret.

5. He's feeding off of the positive vibes the crowds are giving off at his events.

Plus, he's probably been hyperactive ever since he was a kid.

6. You can tell by the ease and grace with which he walks and moves around

that he was in track and field as a young man. He seems very comfortable in his body and on his feet. Not only does he have exceptional energy, but he seems to have exceptional courage and focus, as well. Where he's lacking (from what I've seen) is in musical ability and humor. He'll smile, laugh, and enjoy himself, but he doesn't seem witty or particularly funny. And it was discovered a while back that the sweet man just can't sing. I guess nobody has everything.

7. I remember when we heard all the "Bob Dole is so old" jokes....

He's still around.

Then again, so is Jimmy Carter.

8. Have to agree. Had a co-worker mention that his age was a concern and I

just looked at him incredibly and told him that Bernie could run circle around most of us here. His schedule has been incredible, his voice his hoarse from so many speeches and yet he manages to go out and talk to the overflow crowds after speeches. He is an amzing (was going to say incredible but since he is so credible I switched it) and compassionate being. I have always admired him and didn't think my admiration could grow but it has.

10. Which candidate does your co-worker seem to be favoring, and how old is he or she?

So much has been made of Sanders age, it stands out to people. He's not that much older than Hillary or Warren, though. Plus, he's looks and sounds a lot more naturally energetic than some of the other candidates on both sides.

9. Bernie got quite a lot done while "loafing" in Burlington and Washington, D.C.

Silly me. For a few seconds, I thought I was participating somewhere where which facts are actually relevant. Please accept my apologies.

Carry on.

Like you, ALBliberal, I have been awed by Bernie's pace, especially since he doesn't travel in a bubble.

[Enthusiast]

11. I am simply amazed by Bernie's energy and stamina.

I have a number of health issues but I am trying, in a very limited way, to maintain some level of fitness. This Bernie fella, he just blows me away.

When he first started on this campaign I thought, "Bernie, man, pace yourself, we are all depending on you."

Now I understand. I understand my concept of fitness is on a different level than Bernie's.

[ALBliberal]

12. it seems he has a career that he has never lost passion or energy for

I believe if he had risen no higher than a local or state official he would have served with the same dedication and loyalty.
My admiration for him continues to grow. My kids and other young relatives love him. They say he speaks the truth and they can tell.
