Bernie Sanders’ Hometown Campaign Kickoff Set for Tuesday, May 26, 2015
Source: Blog4President
There will be free Ben & Jerry's ice cream and music by Mango Jam, the Vermont Zydeco/Cajun band.
My hometown of Burlington and the people of Vermont have a special place in my heart. There is nowhere else in the world where I would hold an event this important, Sanders said.
In Vermont, I have learned that focusing on important issues and not engaging in negative campaigns is what people want. I have learned that grassroots campaigning holding town meetings, knocking on doors, face-to-face discussions is more important than money in winning elections. That is what I have done in Vermont and that is the lesson I will take with me around the country on this national campaign.
The formal kickoff will set the stage for the campaign to come. I will lay out an Agenda for America which addresses the major crises we face and a vision of a government which works for all of our people and not just the billionaire class, Sanders said.
After the Burlington campaign kickoff, Sanders will travel to New Hampshire on Wednesday and then head to Iowa on Thursday.

I'd urge Hillary to follow suit and not attack Bernie but have a civilized debate.
Let us contrast how democrats acting grown up with the repuke clown bus. It will help in the GE no matter who the nominee is from our side.
