In 2007, singer-songwriter Leah Kauffman crooned her way to a viral hit with her overtly political "I've got a crush on Obama" music video, viewed over 26 million times on YouTube. Now, Kauffman is back on the 2016 campaign circuit, with a new pro-Bernie Sanders anthem titled "Bernie Bae."

The electronic dance song -- which includes a bass drop to the line "Talk Bernie to me" -- features brightly clothed dancers in oversized graphic tees and beanies, gyrating to a catchy beat.

Take a look:

Kauffman's song, co-written by music producer Jeffrey Fry, is an unapologetic combination of the best and worst of the millennial culture many Sanders supporters belong to.
