Yes, he does sound hoarse. SamKnause Aug 2015 #13
Maybe he should cut down on the repeated screaming lectures MaggieD Aug 2015 #14
Or he could stop speaking to crowds of 10-12,000 and instead morningfog Aug 2015 #15

The shot of the parking garage is just awesome !!!!

The count of the crowd was 4,500.

I don't think that included those in the parking garage.

They mentioned the count was 300 when Hillary was there.

I know lots of folks that have attended Bernie rallies only to rule him out. Curiousity doesn't translate to votes.

I think a lot of politicians get hoarse when they are campaigning.

He has been as busy as the energizer bunny.

That might help. He could revert to talking in a normal tone of voice and stop repeating the captain obvious lectures, IMO.

If you do not speak for the people, You will not strain your voice - only your credulity.

There was one point, many years ago, when he had to make the choice of having a surgery that might have ended his public speaking entirely. I applaud him for his tenacity. He's like the Energizer bunny. As long as they keep feeding him throat lozenges, he'll be fine.
