Media Shrugs as Bernie Sanders Draws Enormous Crowd in Oakland (PHOTOS / VIDEO)

Nathan Wellman | May 31, 2016




The media continues to berate Bernie Sanders for taking his campaign all the way to the Democratic National Convention with headlines like “Why Won’t Bernie Sanders Just Give Up Already?” However, his supporters continue to prove his relevance by showing up in droves to his rallies.
Bernie Sanders held a rally today in Oakland at the Frank Ogawa Plaza with conservative estimates counting attendance between 20,000 and 30,000 people. While some estimates go as high as 60,000 and claim the Oakland Police Department as a source, this does not seem verified and should be taken with a grain of salt. Nevertheless,this is particularly incredible given that the rally was competing with the Oakland-based team Golden State Warriors, who were in the midst of their 7th Game in the NBA playoffs.
The hashtag #BernieInOakland is currently trending on Twitter at over 30 thousand tweets in only a few hours.

Bernie appears to be a True Believer, and at that, the closest thing to an honest person still in the race.

Unfortunately, he is wrong about almost everything.

And he hasn't a prayer, as the Democrats' primaries are a farce, the fix is in.

It will be Il Duce vs The Human Sewer

The fix was in before the start. Sander's (or any other Democrat candidate for that matter) never had a chance.
