| This is Richard Reeves in Washington, Iowa with Infowars.com and we've got a person here that attended the Bernie Sanders event. | |
| What's your name, ma'am? | |
| Carrie Gellman. | |
| Carrie, so tell us the top two or three things that really stand out about Bernie Sanders for you. | |
| He's a lot like an everyday person. | |
| He's not like... | |
| High corporate. | |
| You can tell he's just an average guy. | |
| And I'm currently a high school student, so him talking about making tuition free really just hits home because I really want to go to college. | |
| That's something I want to do in my lifetime. | |
| So you're in high school. | |
| Are you 18 now? | |
| Are you old enough to vote yet or almost? | |
| Almost. | |
| 17 this year. | |
| So you can still do a lot by working for Bernie though and putting signs out, huh? | |
| Yep. | |
| This is going in my front yard. | |
| Okay, there you are. | |
| Now tell us, besides the tuition issue, the... | |
| The cost of college and things like that. | |
| What are some other things that really come to the top of your mind about Bernie Sanders' campaign and what you think about that? | |
| He talked about big business a lot and how they have a good stronghold on America right now. | |
| And it's true. | |
| You can see a lot of consumerism inside of our society. | |
| And I don't know. | |
| I'd like to see less of that personally. | |
| I'm not sure if I can speak for everybody. | |
| But so on that note, I agree with him a lot. | |
| Okay, and so have you gotten together with some of your friends to campaign for Bernie, or have you got a lot of folks working with you? | |
| Just me and my mom. | |
| Okay, you and your mom. | |
| So what does your mom think about Bernie? | |
| She loves him. | |
| So what in particular about Bernie does she love? | |
| She's like me. | |
| He's down to earth. | |
| He's a guy. | |
| He's not just someone who you feel like is unreachable. | |
| He's someone that you're like, oh, I could see him walking down the street one day. | |
| And, you know, he'd probably shake hands with you. | |
| So you don't think you'd be able to come and talk to Hillary or ask her a question or shake her hand? | |
| She makes me a bit nervous. | |
| Why does she make you nervous, Carrie? | |
| I don't know. | |
| Just the way she holds herself. | |
| Okay. | |
| Well, there you have it, folks. | |
| We have Carrie here. | |
| Carrie, any last thoughts to our audience? | |
| No, thank you. | |
| All right. | |
