I first voted in 1972 as an 18 year old and i have seen a lot of politicians come and go in the years since.

Rarely have I seen a Democrat with this kind of charisma, intelligence and authenticity.

You know he's doing something right because he is getting attacked by all sides.

These attacks have soured me even more on Corporate / Centrist Democrats and will no longer donate to their campaigns and, if neccessary will not vote for them.

Bernie was the closest to this I have seen and now we have a younger version of him to cheer for.

If you have not watched this video you should. It brought tears to my eyes.
