So glad to have campaigned for Obama and see him win and speak again tonight.

It sure appears Obama has heard Bernie and has respect for Bernie and Bernie's followers. Obama hit on several issues Bernie and even Occupy brought forward.

Thanks, Barack for setting the stage for Bernie's ascension. We owe you.
