He believes in campaign finance reform and is practicing what he preaches by not accepting corporate donations or creating Super PACs.” – Shepard Shepard designed the poster for the Red Hot Chili Peppers show with special guests and DJ Z-Trip at The Theatre at Ace Hotel in Los Angeles. The show is taking place Friday, Feb. 5th with all proceeds to benefit Bernie Sander’s campaign.” — Shepard Fairey
