REPRINT ARCHIVED ARTICLE OF NOVEMBER 17, 2015: THE FOURTH DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE IS TONIGHT, SUNDAY, JANUARY 17, 2016

CLEVELAND URBAN NEWS.COM, CLEVELAND, Ohio- U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders  of Vermont (pictured), a candidate for the Democratic nomination for president and Hillary Clinton's most serious rival, spoke to an energetic audience of more than 6,000 people at the Wolstein Center at Cleveland State University on Monday evening.

Former Ohio senator Nina Turner (pictured), a Black Cleveland Democrat and the national surrogate for the Sanders campaign, introduced him to thundering applause.

"Senator Sanders can win this race, don't listen to the pundits," said Turner. "I am feeling the Bern,"

Turner spoke on voter suppression, among a host of other issues,  and told the crowd, many of them millennials of the post Generation X era, and a large number of them Democrats, that they can all be part of a political revolution, and that Sanders wants to give all Americans access to "the American dream."

"Nina's speech was off the chain and  nearly every issue  that impacts African -Americans Bernie Sanders spoke on," said Charles E. Bibb Sr., a  Black Democrat and former East Cleveland councilman who heads the greater Cleveland Carnegie Roundtable

Before speaking Sanders hugged Turner, and thanked his supporters. And he acknowledged Ohio Sen. Michael Skindel, former state representative Mike Foley, former Cuyahoga County commissioner Tim Hagan, former state senator  C.J. Prentiss, and the Rev Dr, Jawanza Colvin, senior pastor at Olivet Institutional Baptist Church in Cleveland and a key participant in the Blacks Lives Matters Movement.
