Bernie reflects on how his mind is blown at the incredible response of the people to his message. How eager they are for this change he is wanting to help enact. How enthusiastic we are to be a part of it.

After seeing SO many pics like these from so many cities I am still blown away when I see them. And then knowing that most of these venues have thousands of people who are outside, wanting to have been able to make it inside. Fucking amazing.

FEEL THE BERN!!!

That incredible response of which you speak has to be giving him the energy to keep going at the grueling pace he keeps. I don't know how else he does it.

Imagine what it must be like to be him, looking out at all those people he has inspired!

Knowing that people are ready to make it happen, to take our country back from the oligarchs. It's what he has been fighting for his entire adult life. What a great place to be in that long journey.
