In Littleton, NH, the opera house is packed for @BernieSanders an hour before he appears.
Loudest applause in Littleton NH when @BernieSanders recalls he opposed war in Iraq and that he now backs #IranDeal.
"War is the last resort, not the first resort." BernieSanders in NH with an anti-war, pro-diplomacy message.

After the town hall meeting, Sanders spoke to the media saying he felt confident that he could win in New Hampshire, even against big-name candidates like Hillary Clinton or even potential candidates like Joe Biden who is reported to have shown interest in running for President.
"Well I think the evidence is pretty clear: we are gaining, and what the polls seem to indicate is that Hillary Clinton's support seems to be receding a bit, but we've got a long way to go," said Sanders.
Sanders said he would run an issue-oriented campaign instead of attacking other candidates.
"What the American people are entitled to is a serious debate on serious issues. Politics is not a soap opera. We should not be going around making terrible attacks on each other -- let's debate the issues," said Sanders.

Either we strengthen our democracy, or an oligarchy.
I VOTE FOR DEMOCRACY.
Is is just me, or is this a no brainer?
