2. THOSE people are EVERYWHERE!

I had a bank teller (a Millennial) tell me he LOVED my Bernie button, so I gave it to him. He said, "Oh, my wife is going to love this!" So, I pulled another button out and gave him one - he was thrilled.

I was at a hospital coffee shop and the young Millennial dietitian compliment me on my Bernie button - I gave it to him.

A young lady (Millennial) checking me out at a restaurant complimented me on my Bernie button and told me she had the same thing on her car! (PEACE LOVE BERNIE)

A waitress (Millennial) complimented me on my button-she got her own.

My sister volunteers at our local Hospice and another employee ran into the building asking people "are you driving a Fit?" "are you driving a Fit?" and finally got to my sister "are you driving a Fit?" and my sister said, "Yes, I drive the Fit." The lady threw her arms around her and said, "I saw your Bernie bumper stickers! We just LOVE Bernie!"

I saw a lady entering our local grocery store wearing a "Feel the Bern" T-shirt.

I've also seen TWO Bernie bumper stickers in town. I'm telling you - Bernie people are everywhere and in huge numbers. TPTB are going to be shocked when we vote.

PEACE
LOVE
BERNIE
