"WASHINGTON Sen. Bernie Sanders is betting on support from an unlikely group people who dont typically vote in his bid for the Democratic presidential nomination.
A central part of the Vermont independents strategy is to draw young people and others into the political process, as President Obama did ahead of the 2008 primaries. On Wednesday, Sanders will address an audience of thousands during a student town hall meeting that will be live-streamed at colleges and universities across the country. Its part of his effort to boost turnout among students, beginning with the Iowa caucuses in February."
