There’s a reason why Bernie keeps mentioning FDR. He realizes that for millions of people today the situation is as dire as what many people were experiencing then. We need a massive infusion of economic opportunity into the life of the average American - and we need it fast.

Seems contrary to what I admired about your candidacy - our problems are not fundamentally material, you seemed to be saying but "spiritual." Now you've joined the Bernie bandwagon which is all about taking material things from some people and giving them to others.

It IS a spiritual issue to refuse to look away from the suffering of others. That’s why I ran, and what I said throughout the campaign.

How do you square the fact of the higher than expected number of people who have been lifted out of poverty compared to the number of people in poverty during FDR

So you are saying you'd equally prefer to live during the great depression as now?

There’s a reason why Bernie keeps mentioning FDR. Because FDR gave us the Jim Crow New Deal. He was okay w ADOS at the bottom of America so long as it helped 'progressive' whites. Just like Bernie. #ADOS
