Ben & Jerry’s co-founder Ben Cohen has created a flavor for his choice for president, Bernie Sanders:
A new @BernieSanders Ice Cream has been born #BerniesYearning #FeelTheBern https://t.co/fgMroKPTt1 pic.twitter.com/mmYhR3TWzG

But there’s a catch: Supplies are extremely limited:
There will be only 40pints of "Bernie's Yearning" ice cream;"No plans for mass distribution” https://t.co/Eeu6pOzeZf pic.twitter.com/UXIRpRRqMo

Possible demand far outweighing supply seems somewhat appropriate.
There are SO many possible puns, slogans and sales pitches. Jim Geraghty helped get things started:
People are Lenin up to buy the new Bernie Sanders ice cream. So quit Stalin and get the flavor that every socialist is giving high Marx!

This could be kept going for quite a while:
@jimgeraghty Hope it doesn't give them the Trotzky's.

@jimgeraghty Are you sure it's safe? I heard it can cause Castro-intestinal problems.

Who will be the first Sanders supporter to serve this new flavor at a fundraiser/ice cream social(ist)?
