When Senator Bernie Sanders spoke in Portland, Oregon last Sunday, he was able to garner a huge crowd indicating that presidential race rival Hilary Clinton might shiver at. Knowing that popularity and crowd pleasers normally get the seat, is Sanders taking the lead?
As Washington Post reported, the basketball arena in Vermont welcomed Senator Bernie Sanders who spoke to a 19,000 head count crowd. There were also around 9,000 outside the venue who were not able to get inside.
Coincidentally, Bloomberg also reports that 27,000 people showed up in Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena to welcome Sanders as well. Knowing this, it is safe to say that Sanders is most definitely getting ahead of Senator Hilary Clinton for the 2016 Presidential Elections race.
In fact, President Barack Obama was also able to garner the same amount of people showing up to witness him campaigning for the presidency. Results show that, indeed, the turn-out have helped him win the presidential race.
For Senator Sanders, it is his third time to draw a staggering crowd to hear him talk about his denouncement of income inequality and money in politics. Furthermore, his campaign and his speech also incorporates his strong support for gay marriage and abortion rights, as well as free tuition afforded to students who attend public universities.
In fact, he mentioned in his speech: "We are going to create an economy that works for all people, not just a handful of billionaires," clearly indicating that his other rival, Donald Trump, is not suitable for the position as much as he is deserving to have it.
Given this, is Clinton losing her touch as a crowd pleaser?
She might be losing her touch as a Democratic candidate for the US Presidency. Her lack of supporters and the number of people willing to hear her speak could mean that she is also losing her passion to win the race. Now that Republicans are all too willing to get their own to take the seat, what do you think should she do next to secure the spot?
