I adore Bernie.

I have been waiting my whole life for a candidate like Bernie.

I will never forgive or forget those who support Hillary, if Bernie is

not our candidate.

and the enthusiasm was off the charts there too. No anger, no vitriol, just enthusiasm and hope for the positive message Bernie shares. People waited in line in the wind and cold for three hours and more, and I saw nothing but good vibes.

Bernie is leading a positive political revolution, and it's a beautiful thing!

I cannot believe so many people support him. It's a sad commentary on our country and our times.

When he was finished he went outside and spoke to the lines still wanting to come in. My daughter got in line at 2:00 got in at 5:00 for a 7:00 speech. From the beginning she told me it was the most enthusiastic crowd she has ever seen in her 26 years including rock concerts.

I was seated behind the podium and could see the people streaming in the whole time he spoke.

I have heard that the line wound for blocks and went completely around the arena complex.

My daughter has been going to political rallies since she was 10 she described this one as a rock concert with a diverse crowd. No enthusiasm gap here.
