Bernie Sanders Continues to Draw the Biggest Crowds of Any 2016 Candidate

Sanders, who is generally viewed as a favorite of the Netroots Nation community, also faced complaints and shouting from protesters as he tried to deliver a speech largely focused on economic inequality.

Vermonters in high places have been reluctant to endorse the presidential candidacy of their own U S. senator, Bernie Sanders. “He has a fervor in his message that connects with people“. “And even though some institutions have paid fines and even admitted guilt, too often it seems like the people responsible get off with limited consequences (or none at all)”. They collected $1,200.

Like the big names, Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican Jeb Bush, Sanders is slated to appear July 31 at a session at which the candidates “will share their visions for saving our cities”.

“We need to create a political movement: a political movement that brings our people together”, Sanders said.

Hillary Clinton defended her shift on the capital gains tax, slammed Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, claimed a love of any and all pantsuits and said that “black lives matter” during the first Facebook chat of her presidential campaign.

“If everyone who thought like that would just vote for [Sanders], he’d win”, she said.

Still, Fowler said he hopes Clinton learns some lessons from Sanders about the importance of holding larger events and speaking matter-of-factly about working Americans.

He also said “we need new, cleaner energy for the future”.

Clinton did not get into the specific mechanisms she would use to empower regulators, boost compensation for whistleblowers, and penalize executives for corporate misbehavior.

Therefore, a statement like, “If the pipeline goes through, she’ll shoulder part of the blame”, doesn’t bode well for a Democrat who is supposed to counter Republicans on this emotional debate.

And at the end of the rally, Sanders promised his supporters and listeners that, with their help, he will start a political revolution to transform America.

Johnson, clad in a light blue “Bernie for President” T-shirt, described Clinton as the establishment candidate.

“I think that [Sanders] may try to straddle the issue [of Israel], but the base that he is trying to appeal to has gone overwhelmingly to the anti-Israel camp”, Muravchik told JNS.org.

With the growing number of people that were expected to attend the Sanders speech, the event was relocated to accommodate a crowd that exceeded 11,000 attendees: nearly 7,000 more than presidential hopeful Donald Trump’s rally last week. I am here to say that when childhood poverty in Texas is 26 percent, we’ve got to take them on. “We need to rebuild our infrastructure so there is plenty of work to go around”.

“We’ve all heard the shocking stories of misconduct by individuals and institutions in the financial industry”, Clinton wrote.

In line with his words, Sanders has introduced legislation to make public college free for everyone.

Gordon Preston has lived in New Hampshire for 30 years and is about to host a party for a bunch of people he’s never met.

“You are the job creators”, Sanders shouted at the crowd. Had she been elected 8 years ago, like she should have, things wouldn’t be as messy as they are today.

And Sanders’ enthusiasm does not necessarily translate into having the infrastructure to run a nationwide campaign. Where are you in other low-income states?

Yet Sanders’ Texas talk came with a hint of optimism as he raised the prospect of the end of Republican dominance in the state.

“Someone said Arizona was a conservative state”, he told his supporters who promptly booed at the notion.

The challenge for Ehrenberg and other officials in the Sanders campaign is to grasp this momentum and turn it into votes, he said.

The 24-year-old data scientist and Stanford grad also said that Ms Clinton’s willingness to endorse military intervention overseas is “worrisome”.
