Politico:
Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders is planning a very, very vigorous travel schedule to campaign on behalf of Hillary Clinton in the weeks leading up to the November election, he said Monday.
Sanders, in an interview before Monday nights first general election debate, told MSNBCs Brian Williams and Rachel Maddow that he plans to go all over this country to advocate for Clinton, the Democratic nominee and his former opponent in the partys often-contentious primary elections.
Were working on a schedule right now, which is going to be a very, very vigorous schedule, Sanders said. Were going to go all over this country. Were going to go wherever Secretary Clintons people think that I am needed, and I am going to work as hard as I can to make sure that Donald Trump does not become the next president.
The two are already scheduled to appear together on Wednesday at the University of New Hampshire Field House to discuss college affordability.

I am so impressed with how Bernie and Hillary are able to not just keep the rigorous travel and appearance schedules that they do, but how they seem to THRIVE on it.
We (hubby and I) took a day trip to Vegas last month, and also traveled from Denver to Orlando (and back) last week, and let me tell you -- for me personally -- traveling is exhausting and stressful and all I want to do after leaving the airport is fall into a bed.
And now and all during the long primaries I observed that those two hit multiple cities or even states each day, all the while glad-handing, making speeches, meeting and greeting people, sharing meals, posing for pictures, answering questions, etc. for 12 to 18 hours a day and also do so looking energized and put-together (I admit I did NOT remotely look energized or put-together on my 4-hour return flight the other day LMAO).
