Presidential Candidate Bernie Sanders inspired some intense enthusiasm at his speech at Michigan State's Breslin Center.
"It was great. 10 out of 10," East Lansing High School Junior Lena Mefford said.
"It personally gave me the chills," Emilie Browell said.
He even inspired a kind of frenzy when he touched a person's hand.
"This guy goes, 'Let me feel the burn,' and he touched it, my fingertips, they're singed," one member of the crowd said.
No doubt his speech inspired plenty of social media posts. But, and Sanders addressed this in his speech, can he inspire young people to actually vote?
"There is a perception out there, that I think is becoming increasingly inaccurate, that young people are not going to be involved in the political process," the Senator said. "And that is exactly why you have got to stand up and fight back."
One Michigan State freshman says not all young people are disengaged.
"I'm 19, and this is my first election, so I will definitely be out voting," Jessica Gardener said.
Another man in his 20's says he's worried. Sanders has had popular events in other states, but did not do too well in them on Super Tuesday.
"I wonder sometimes if young people are attached more to his message and just want to see him," Dan Shanahan said. "Or if they actually understand that you need to get out and vote or nothing will happen."
Regardless, when Sanders talked about things like affordable education, minimum wage,and helping the middle class, the crowd gave him a resounding cheer.
"They just get loud, and they just love it, because it's real, and it feels great to be part of something that's real," Shanahan said.
Michigan's primary is Tuesday, March 8th.
