Young and old, men and women, they show up every weekend with supplies. We have buttons, stickers bracelets, fans, shirts and a huge supply of various printed media all brought in by volunteers to support Bernie. It really is incredible.

Making lots of new friends and meeting lots on really nice and enthusiastic people. I have never seen anything like it and I was a Deniac.

ETA: I forgot to mention the ration of POC and whites where I have been volunteering is pretty much equal.
