He touched my hand!": Bernie Sanders gets rock-star welcome in Colorado visit
He touched my hand!”: Bernie Sanders gets rock-star welcome in Colorado visit
https://www.denverpost.com/2018/10/24/bernie-sanders-comes-to-colorado/
When Sen. Bernie Sanders walked along a security barrier after speaking Wednesday at the University of Colorado, admirers clamored for the chance at a handshake.
“He touched my hand,” a young woman screamed as the Vermont senator passed. “He touched my hand!”
Sanders, a darling of progressive voters, went to CU with fellow speakers U.S. Rep. Jared Polis, who is running for governor; congressional candidate Joe Neguse, seeking Polis’ seat; former Democratic Party activist Nina Turner; and U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet.
Sanders — who made stops later Wednesday at Colorado State University and a fundraiser in Denver — also took time to take several swipes at President Donald Trump and his favorite targets, the ultra wealthy.
