2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Video. Massive Bernie rally in Tampa. Estimated 9000. About 20,000 altogether in Florida today. [View all]ancianita
(36,305 posts)41. I'm sorry I missed this. Thank you for the video.
This man who really works to enfold people who've seldom been engaged in politics, shows that he doesn't feel entitled to the presidency.
When hoarse, hardworking Bernie tells Tampa that buying an election is oligarchy, when they roar as he claims, "Our veterans have fought to hard to preserve this democracy and we're not going to let that oligarchy win!" I'm really proud of this old man's energy. I love seeing PoC, Muslims, youth, and hearing his Brooklyn accent.
