Many of the mostly young attendees who make up the 78-year-old Sanders’ enthusiastic base wore “Bernie” T-shirts, while others were clad in apparel of the band Vampire Weekend, arguably the true headliners of the event. “The reason we’re going to win here in Iowa, the reason we’re going to win the Democratic nomination, is because we are a campaign of us, not me,” Sanders said, after Vampire Weekend played him onto the stage.Some attendees Reuters interviewed were from out of state and therefore unable to caucus on Monday.
