If Bernie Sanders didn't have young voters' attention before, he certainly does now. In a parody campaign ad that aired on The Ellen DeGeneres Show Tuesday, the Vermont senator is shown grooving to "Hotline Bling," the most recent hit to emerge from Drake's music-meme-industrial complex. While Sanders unfortunately had no part in the making of this video — Ellen's people cut his dancing during an appearance on her show into Drake's now iconic video — the resulting clip works pretty well:
"All right, Hillary, it's your move," DeGeneres concludes. Here's hoping we get Hillary singing Adele next.
