Feel the Bern by Shaelee

CaLwxgXUkAACoT8On February 1st at Bernie Sander’s after party, KidUnity was met by cries of, “We love you, Bernie,” and “Keep fighting,” and most of all, “Feel the bern.” Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders were in a virtual tie and the crowd was going wild. Bernie Sanders came up to the podium to speak, unleashing yells and claps from the crowd. First, Sanders thanked Clinton and O’Malley, and then went on to say, “We can no longer continue to have a corrupt campaign.” He spoke about how three and a half million people have helped volunteer. The average donation was $27. Sanders also didn’t use superPACs. He stated, “The American people are saying no to a rigged economy.” He also said that wealth is not equal, and he wants to create an equal economy. Sanders wants to raise the minimum wage to $15 dollars an hour. He also said that public colleges and universities should be tuition free and that he is against student debt. He also said, “Stop worrying about campaign funds!” He guarantees health care to all people. “I believe health care is a right, not a privilege,” Sanders stated passionately. “Enough is enough,” he said. “This country belongs to all of us.”
