1. so great to see a real person, saying real things, without a teleprompter speech rolling

even a quickly fixed word shows how real Bernie Sanders is compared to the rest of the politicians and game-players - he isn't playing a tape but is speaking from his heart, and with great abundance of concern for folks who need attention the most and get it the least

6. I LOVE this!!!! Finally Bernie's expanding, deepening & refining his message, in other words ...

I've been hoping & praying that Sanders would do this, would put his core message
into new words, new phrases, explore different angles and aspects, etc.

I believe, sadly, this is one reason Bernie has struggled to get his fair share of
media coverage; because once the press had heard his stump speech several times
(a speech that rarely deviated or changed very much) they stopped listening and
covering him as much.

Here's a lovely example of him doing just that: "Poverty is a death sentence" is a
brilliant summation & distillation of Bernie's message. It packs a punch and it's
very memorable.

Anyways .. just had to say that.
