That looks like a school gymnasium with 2500-3000 people.

I think this board underestimates how healthcare, prescription drug costs, all of it, it unacceptable to many many people.

People should be rightly scared of socialism and the ridiculous Bernie takeover of our economy, but at least it’s a solution. It resonates with people.


It only resonates with people who don’t remember what really affordable health care was before Obamacare. That’s why young people like him. They don’t remember when premiums were a third of what they are now and you actually had your choice of doctors.

I think having AOC introduce him is a nice touch. That will pack them in across the country.

I wouldn't call 7,500 college students at a school in New England a "huge crowd."

I met a bernie supporter and talked to him for a while. Bernie really appeals to young, liberal, indebted college kids. Of them there are plenty in this country.

Okay, now let’s get to a point where healthcare revenues are a third of what they were. Find me the GOP Senators and Congressmen trying to make that happen. It’s a bloated industry that has lobbied to protect its high margin bullshite.

you think those soy-laden Bernie bros even pay for their own healthcare?


Bernie Sanders won the 2016 Michigan Primary. Who carried him to victory? Men over 55. Heads of households. Blue collar working class heads of households. If you think it’s just the soyboy crowd that likes Bernie, you’re mistaken.

The GOP answer(which is nothing) to outrageous healthcare costs will give Bernie a shot.


The GOP answer to healthcare and Rx drug costs, which is never covered in the media, is working.

Rx drug costs decreasing at rates not seen since the 60s

He has ended the individual mandate from Obama care which PUNISHED you with a fine for not having healthcare.

He has signed an Executive Order to end surprise billing from hospitals and will require price transparency beginning in 2021.

He has signed The Right To Try Act. Right-to-try laws are U.S. state laws and a federal law that were created with the intent of allowing terminally ill patients access to experimental therapies that have completed Phase I testing but have not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration.

He has signed Veteran's Choice.
The Veterans Choice Program allows veterans to get health care from a community provider rather than through the VA.


All of this with NO help from Congress who has only 1 mission in mind: investigate Trump and remove him from office.

And Sanders' Medicare For All will raise everyone's taxes. So, you won't be paying "healthcare costs" you'll just be paying taxes. Bernie Tax Calculator

A report released by the Urban Institute last week found that his single-payer approach would cost $34 trillion dollars over 10 years, more than the total cost of social security, medicare and medicaid combined. LINK
Where do you think that money comes from? What do you think Billionaires will do with their money when socialism comes knocking?

So before you go believing the mainstream media, or negative Democrat ads, do your homework and know what you're talking about.

Small college gym shot with fish angle lens in Bernies home state < Trump rally anywhere, ever. It’s going to be a bloodbath

Was reported to be under 2000.

Not a huge crowd.

Unless one is comparing to any of the other Dem candidates that are pleased filling a living room.

You can look around that picture and see the exact type of people you’d expect to see. Heck, blue hair is right in the middle, didn’t even have to look for it.
