My politics buddy will be meeting Senator Sanders!

I have a friend who moved from Boston to California some years ago. He and I have kept up our political conversations by phone, especially on election nights.

He says he is very liberal, but speaks just like a sensible woodchuck. He still thinks he will vote for Hillary in the primary. However, he once said he "might send Sanders some money, though." (I sure hope I had something to do with that--I forgot to ask.)

Yadda, yadda, tonight, he emailed me that the Sanders campaign invited him to a fundraising party in a private home and Sanders will be there.



I can't wait to hear my buddy's report! Unless we're talking politics, he is a man of very few words, but I will try to wring as much out of him as I possibly can and post it after the event.

I am so excited!
