The Nordic Social Democratic Republics have been around for 50+ years...

If I search, will I find videos by Sanders in the 70s and 80s trumpeting the accomplishments of them and their leaders?

1. They put in place

.....health care for their people right after WW2 and so it's been woven into their culture, as have many other social safety net programs.

Very smart.

8. it really is too bad we can't have nice things

I guess we have to feed our billionaires.

9. Remember when Bernie bashed millionaires, and then he became one? Now he only bashes billionaires.

10. Too bad that didn't happen here

If it did Americans would be conditioned to that system by now like people in those countries. We’re not, though. Not even close.

7. Clearly, there was some level of admiration for Castro's Cuban Revolution...

Vermont senator and Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders once said that he was "physically nauseated" by a speech made by President John F. Kennedy when Sanders was a young man, because Kennedy's "hatred for the Cuban Revolution [...] was so strong."

"Kennedy was young and appealing and ostensibly liberal," Sanders reminisced in a 1987 interview with The Gadfly, a student newspaper at the University of Vermont. "But I think at that point, seeing through Kennedy, and what liberalism was, was probably a significant step for me to understand that conventional politics or liberalism was not what was relevant."

Why would Kennedy's opposition-to and "hatred for the Cuban Revolution" elicit such a response from Bernie? That sure sounds like the reaction that someone would have if they have a certain "fondness" or respect or admiration for the Cuban Revolution.

It's pretty clear what he's saying and what he's getting at there. He even repeats it for emphasis at the end. What else could explain it?

It's really not a good look, and if nominated, the GOP will have a goldmine of material to use against Bernie.

5. If you back even further you might stumble upon FDR's administrations

I'm sure you can find lots of video clips of Sanders trumpeting FDR's accomplishments, without any of those pesky disclaimers about him not condoning authoritarianism.

6. A strange question.

Instead of asking if you will find specific results searching for those terms, you could just skip the middle people and, you know, search for those terms.

11. Does this full-on petulance of yours reflect your candidate in any way?
