Michael Eric Dyson: Bernie Sanders is surging because there’s ‘a little bit of socialist’ in everybody

Georgetown University professor Michael Eric Dyson asserted over the weekend that Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders (I-VT) had an unexpected amount of support because socialist policies are secretly very popular with voters.
