I switched! Saw BERNIE today in Carson... He handed me the MIC! [View all]

His town hall was about healthcare. he did awesome. There was a Trumper who got up and asked him a question and he handled him wonderfully, even drew him in for an embrace

I was all about Bernie last time, and I think I'm feelin' the Bern again! His closing words were about how we have to care for one another, that what societies DO, that's what HUMANS DO!

My little bit starts @ 17:20 or so... I didn't say my name, was too overwhelmed at being told to tell my story to 1000+ people!

PS I still like Kamala, she's from my hometown, but maybe she'd be good as a VP pick?
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
