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.

Bernie is way more extreme than that, but in our system of checks and balances a Bernie Presidency is likely to be way less radical than he would like it be.

You do realize that ideas without even the remotest hope of passing the house and senate is the equivalent of “hopes and prayers” in place of gun laws right?

THANK YOU. CALL THEM WHAT THEY ARE, CORPORATE SOCIALISTS. They give the means of government to the dominant corporations against the peoples' necessities and freedoms... They dont care about the public, the working class...

I have to disagree. Bernie is too extreme in all that matters. He is not a true Democrat and anyone who says he is....is mistaken. He will continue to blow up the party and if he is the nominee God forbid....he will blow up any chance of a blue wave for the House and Senate.

Surreal living in a country in which healthcare and education is considered extreme but trillions spent on bombing brown people in poor countries is not.
