Pics from last weeks: "A Future to Believe In" rally in Kansas City

From Bernie Sanders spoke at Kansas City's Bartle Hall last Wednesday, to a crowd estimated to be at least 1,7000.

The sidewalks were already packed by the time the doors opened officially at 11:00AM.


(Ahem) The grey-haired dude in this second picture is me, helping people in the crowd sign 'Commit to Vote' cards for the March 15 primary. Other Bernie volunteers were getting people to sign 'Commit to Caucus' cards for March 5.


What a beautiful crowd!!!! Young and old, straight and gay!





Bernie was on fire, as usual, and the crowd loved it!!!!






After the rally, volunteers signed up attendees to phonebank for Bernie.

going round to sign people up. I remember your jacket and hair, lol. There were a lot of you all, it was terrific work you did. I had fun, even in the long line in the cold. The people supporting Bernie are just so nice and positive. I heard not one single nasty thing said about Hillary except that people did not want to vote for her and a discussion of why. It was just a wonderful day.
