MILWAUKEE, Wis. (AP) — Bernie Sanders is endearing himself to a banquet hall full of devout Democratic Party members in Milwaukee by promising to “do exactly the opposite” of everything Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker has done. The Vermont senator walked on stage at the Wisconsin Center after a short video akin to his popular television advertisement featuring the Simon and Garfunkel song “America.” The 1,500 Wisconsin Democratic activists, officials and donors in attendance stood and applauded as Sanders took the stage. Walker came to national attention for his push against public-sector unions in 2011. The Republican governor, who pulled the plug on his own presidential campaign in September, has endorsed Texas Sen. Ted Cruz in the Wisconsin Republican primary.
