At an under-the-radar town hall in Des Moines, Sanders had the crowd begging for more. Here’s why it matters
Bernie Sanders has neckties older than most of his audience at last Friday’s Drake University Town Hall in Des Moines. Yet the age differential didn’t matter. His college-age audience loved him. Organized by Drake progressive students, Sanders and his audience seemed to have a near telepathic connection. His issues are their issues, and if anything, they are more pissed off than he is.
Bernie Sanders likely can’t win, but he can push other candidates to the left.
Go Bernie! A national treasure. He may be old, white and male, but he is here to chew bubblegum and kick regressive, oligarchical Republican ass.
