24. Always nice to see a celebrity....

Who is informed in terms of their politics.

I'll take the people we currently have for Bernie in terms of endorsements compared to many of the ones that Hillary has(absent the politicians as most of them are informed, though I disagree with them). That way, if someone asks them about Bernie, they actually will have something to say as opposed to some of the celebrity Hillary endorsers where I suspect some of their comments may be hit or miss(NOT referring to any of the Hillary supporters on here).

26. So what?

Personally, I'm not a fan of Bette Midler. But I guess that's just me.

[humbled_opinion]

28. This is such epic news....

Classic and iconic multiple ways.... This will send shockwaves through the primaries...

[humbled_opinion]

29. The Al Gore endoresement will be

the clinchers..... Just saying......

[Akamai]

32. The "Tita from Aiea," a very smart and thoughtful woman.

I'm from that neck of the woods and always thought she is great -- this further supports my views of her good sense.

From Hawaii, I don't use words like "acumen" or "perspicacity" much, but she is one smart and caring person.

Also, one hell of a voice!

[Left Coast2020]

33. The big endorsement of all endorsements is....

.. Senator Warren. Hands down.

[ChiciB1]

34. One Of My VERY, VERY Favorites!

This were the days of some hard core POLITICAL ACTIVISM! Great endorsement!

Great talent, great energy, and now I realize she's quite smart and discerning as well.
