leftcoastmountains's JournalSanders Sells: Nobody Moves T-shirts Like the Socialist Senator
-snip-
One night in May, graphic artist Dave Barron found himself sitting up in bed, doodling. Against a dark background, a simple design in stark white emerged: eyeglasses, "2016," and a shock of unkempt white hair. "Bernie," he added, though many would have easily recognized the locks and dome of Vermont's independent junior senator, who was just weeks from announcing his run for president.
For kicks, Barron posted the image on Facebook under the header, "My contribution to the campaign." By morning, the requests were rolling in: "Where can we buy the T-shirts?"
Barron has since shipped thousands of them, to addresses in all 50 states.

listener audience/base.

Bernie's Base: Sanders' HQ Is Church Street's Newest Attraction
-snip-
But for all the work that goes on outside the office, people are still drawn to the physical den of the candidate. Every few minutes, another person spurred on by Sanders walked into the small, unobtrusive office.
Josh Schupp-Star of Burlington said he had to do some searching to find out where the campaign office was. He made his way to Church Street to pick out an array of lawn signs, bumper stickers, key chains and a shirt to take to his in-laws on the South Carolina-North Carolina border.
"They're barely political, but they're getting back into it with this election," he said, expressing worry about whether the lawn-sign posts would clear carry-on security at the airport.
A short time later, Nathaniel Perkins of Burlington arrived with a mission of his own. He was buying a Bernie T-shirt and picking up lawn signs, literature and bumper stickers to take to a NASCAR race in New Hampshire, "knowing there's going to be a bunch of Confederate flags," he said.
