Bernie Sanders Rocks The Southwest By Drawing 13,000 To Rally In Tucson, AZ(pics)

Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) drew a rocking crowd of 13,000 supporters in Tucson, AZ to hear his common sense solutions for giving government back to the people.

(snip)
The Tuscon rally was one of the best Sanders rallies of the year. Sanders events have become known for their high energy, but there was a special buzz in Tuscon.

There is something special happening with the Bernie Sanders campaign. I suspect that it is larger than a political campaign. Bernie Sanders has galvanized a movement. The Sanders movement isn’t limited to populist economics. Bernie Sanders is speaking the language of common sense on a variety of issues.
