BTW - Historically Speaking... Bernie Sanders Did NOT Have To Resort To Reading The Phonebook !!!
Or Betty Crocker's Coobook... or the Encyclopedia Britannica, or the Bible...

He managed to pull off holding the Senate Floor with at least 8.5 hours of the unvarnished TRUTH!

And man... did it need to be said!

never read it... the phonebook that is... but it is still a wonderful story

Oh I heard it on NPR... on one of their Sunday SHows, A way with words... will need to track this down NOW.
