Ed Schultz had crowd members cheering enthusiastically several times at Fighting Bob Fest 2015 Saturday September 19th, but he had them on their feet when he came out with his first public endorsement of Bernie Sanders run for the Democratic nomination.

"He does all these things that aren't supposed to work, like not take PAC money, not run negative campaigns, or make personal attacks, but all of a sudden he's kinda winnin'," said Schultz. Schultz said he planned to spend time traveling to help boost Sanders' run.
