Bernie is humble about his participation in the civil rights movement because he did not get his head busted like his southern colleagues did.

And he is right - until now we thought we were alone. Now we know we are the majority! There is no way back from here. Bernie has done it. If he does not become President, never mind. We will have progress in this country in due time because it is inevitable. Bernie has shown the way.

He is so sincere. I don't know what blinds some people that don't see it.
I have been voting since 1980 and I have never seen a politician like him. EVER.
If he wins NY (I live here and think he will) I hope some Hillary supporters will give him another look and change their minds.

I'm glad he has protection, but it strikes me as being very unBernie. Poor guy, I bet it really bothers him that he now has a layer of security between him and the people he loves so much.
