Something pretty funny happened today at the Bernie Sanders rally today in Portland, Oregon.
Clearly the bird is feeling the bern, and Bernie doesn’t miss the opportunity to speak on one of the many issues he has promoted throughout this campaign, and throughout his career, peace.
“I think there may be some symbolism here… I know it doesn’t look like it, but that bird is really a dove asking us for world peace! No more wars!”
I love seeing that Bernie is having the time of his life in this campaign.
I know this is a short diary, but thought you all would enjoy a little feel good moment for this Friday afternoon.
Slightly better quality:
Turns out Bernie said “This little bird doesn’t know it...” not “doesn’t vote”. Many apologies to the little bird for the misquote.
Edit 2: That this happened at a Portland rally is too perfect, considering the sketch the Portlandia show did.
Edit 3: This might have been a thing even before today, not sure of its origin.
