here in St. Paul, along with Hillary Clinton yesterday evening. That fundraiser raised a veritable pantload of money for our DFL party, which is affiliated with the DNC. I couldn't attend, due to all of the lower priced tickets being sold out about 10 minutes after they went up.

Bernie Sanders has been doing that kind of fundraising work for a long time.

This is not directly raising money from the banks to his account only like some do.
