Has there ever been a candidate during the primary season who fills arenas?

1. no. this is a first. Bono even called and asked how he does it

[Kittycat]

2. By giving us the opportunity to rise up and take back our country.

no more crumbs from the 51%ers. A clear winner, a clear message.

[PretzelWarrior]

4. yup. I think he can really work his magic on the world stage too

Europeans allies, people in Africa, Middle East, South America...all would flock to at least hear what the U.S. is discussing if he can take his unifying message abroad as well.

This is the changing tone we so desperately wished for and need!

3. Oh, sure. Even Ralph Nader had Madison Square Garden packed. nt

[Kitty Herder]

8. Ralph Nader was more than a candidate.

He was a legend long before he ran for president.

[billyoc]

14. That's true. nt

5. Well, I'll tell you, not in Texas in decades.

Because they haven't been here in decades. I wonder how much of this is simply pent-up political energy?

6. I think the reason the arenas are so full is because

we, the American people, are so fed up with the bush administration with it's lies and corruption. We are looking for someone who will lead us back to what we once were as a country. Barack Obama is the person who is bringing us this hope. I am so proud of this man and what he represents. I am an older American and I can honestly say that I have never seen anything like this.

[nomorewhopper]

12. i agree

i am so fed up with the bush administration and i believe that americans are just sick and tired of this destructive and arrogant administration.

7. Robert F. Kennedy. He filled arenas everywhere he went.

He spoke in Evansville IN in May of 68 or maybe late April. My ex went to hear him and took photos. Roberts arena was full of wildly cheering supporters...it holds about 15,000 for basketball ..I don't know if it was full to capacity but even 2/3 is a big crowd for primary season in Indiana.

9. I really hope he comes to Georgia before Nov nt

[GoldieAZ49]

10. Not at this level

over 20,000 for a political stump speech

HISTORICAL

[LadyVT]

11. only rock stars

[Kali]

13. maybe it's time for a real rock star

to replace the dummy we and the world have had to endure for the past 7 years.

I'll vote for him.
