When do I remember hearing that before.... back in 2008. Everyone was saying the exact same thing. If you really expect Sanders will be any different if he gets in power, you are kidding yourself.
If anything he is being undermined by the DNC, not the media. The DNC should be ashamed of themselves for thier blatant support of one candidate over the other(s) .
- RobertoG 11y agoNo candidate is going to be perfect. Even if there was an hypothetically perfect candidate (for any definition of perfect) he/she will have to compromise when in power. The thing with Sanders, I think, is that he has been around for so long and he has been so consistent, that you can know what he think about most issues: https://votesmart.org/candidate/key-votes/27110/bernie-sanders#.VnWKsF42xC0 https://votesmart.org/candidate/key-votes/27110/bernie-sande...
- robotkilla 11y ago> If you really expect Sanders will be any different if he gets in power, you are kidding yourself i don't recall obama being an actual socialist or talking about breaking up the banks. i do recall obama being a dem and giving the banks bailout money though. > he is being undermined by the DNC agreed.
- morgante 11y agoI do expect Sanders to be different because he has a 20 year record of being incredibly consistent in his political views. His ideological framework hasn't changed in the entire time I've been following him (I'm from Vermont) and that includes going from mayor of Burlington up through US Senator. He's also not saying things to get elected. He'd have a much better chance if he dropped some of his more socialist rhetoric, but he genuinely believes it.
