Bernie Sanders
Related: About this forumSanders supporters demonstrate at Clinton fundraiser in SF
Three hundred protesters, most of them supporters of presidential candidate Bernie Sanders, demonstrated outside a San Francisco home Friday night where donors supporting rival Hillary Clinton had paid up to $353,000 to dine with her and Hollywood power couple George and Amal Clooney.
The Sanders campaign rallied its troops outside the swank Nob Hill home of venture capitalist Shervin Pishevar. They were kept about a block away from the actual event by a small contingent of police.
Your money cant buy Bernie, one sign read. You cant sit with us unless you have money, read another.
Potluck dinner for homeless
Other signs compared Clinton to fabled French queen Marie Antoinette of Let them eat cake fame.
Hillary Clinton-ette is out of touch, said a sign carried by Sanders supporter Mark Noviski, who said Clintons big-ticket dinner puts her at odds with people on the street and what their needs are.

To get to show up for such a demonstration. I think it's fantastic. I love the "neo liberal war criminal" sign. It should follow her wherever she goes.
