What Bernie stands for is not radical or extreme. It’s nothing more than a return to the traditional FDR Democratic Party position of always being on the side of the working people in America. Prior to the 1980s, that was considered the core of the Democratic Party.

Those in both parties who paint Bernie as extreme are doing so in order to protect an economic paradigm that puts corporations before people. THAT is what should be seen as extreme.

Thank you Ms. Williamson. I hope to see you at one of senator sanders rallies if it’s convenient.

Bernie is NOT a Democrat & admired the communist leader Stalin & the regimes of Cuba & the Soviet Union, whose 'Socialism' wasn't Socialism, & did not work. Bernie doesn't have a well thought out plan to have organized socialist healthcare, such as Norway or Sweden has.

Americans grew more conservative in the 9 decades since FDR, and even since the 1980s. FDR's New Deal was an attempt to stave off the nascent socialist movement in the US. - A podcast show on politics: ishinobu.com/podcasts/politi…

Cognitive dissonance is you supporting the Senator. Until Candidate Saunders refutes and repudiates his staff's thoughts on gulags (violence), & you continue to promote him (violence) you are out of alignment with every single thing you stood on before you entered the race.
