I've never seen anything like it.

10. Whoa nelly!!

[yallerdawg]

11. "Tell your white brothers and sisters...

to stop voting against their own self-interests!"

[nc4bo]

13. I have no idea what you are talking about?!

ETA: I can't hear or play any vid at the moment and was not home for the rally. So I missed everything and am just now catching up.

15. His final words at the rally...

acknowledged the audience has the most difficult fight, being in the Reddest Republican State in America.

He understands without more white Alabamians, Democrats will be out of power.

The SEC Primary March 1 has brought candidates to the South as was the intention.

Maybe people will start thinking about the choices they make in a new way.

16. Thank-you!

We have an incredible candidate in Bernie Sanders. This just reaffirms it.

The message is consistently the same......we must ALL stand together. We all have more in common than we have differences.

Lots of room aboard this Change train.

Thanks again yallerdawg!

[Ron Green]

17. Actually we have a CREDIBLE candidate.

(Not to get all pedantic on your post, but I couldn't resist.)
