I was perusing both the Hillary Clinton and the Bernie Sanders campaign stores.
Quite a difference. A t-shirt my size was double the price at the HC store ($15 vs $30). The variety and styles were also much better, though (all that money can buy, I guess). I especially liked this one:
On the positive side, both campaigns feature goods that are made/printed in the USA. Though I am a little perplexed by the wordage between the two:
Sanders: Union-made and printed in the USA
Clinton: Union printed, American made.

Sanders found some union-made t-shirts and printed them in his basement.

(6,409 posts)Sanders is bragging that his shirts and union made, and union printed. Clinton is bragging that her shirts are union printed. It's very difficult to get union made tee-shirts, or much of anything else, these days. If you want to offer certain styles of garments, chances are you will have to accept some non-union made shirts. I hope both campaigns are making the maximum effort to buy union made shirts.
