America Is Feeling The Bern: Bernie Sanders Draws Overflow Crowds — And Surges In The Polls - Salon

[JDPriestly]

21. Good news!

And I will mention again that when Sanders proposes a policy or a program, he can tell you how he would like to fund it, where the money would come from if he has his way.

Bernie is not just spouting off nice rhetoric. He is talking about the reality of budgets.

Bernie is the ranking member of the Senate budget committee. He is a realist when it comes to money.

Hillary does not have that kind of slice and dice and pour experience when it comes to the finances of government.

I'm not saying she can't do it. I'm saying she hasn't done as much of it as Bernie has.

I'm waiting to hear precisely how Hillary proposes to fund the programs she is suggesting.

In all this, I realize that Congress will have the final say. But Bernie's intention as he clearly states it is to organize citizens to badger Congress into doing the right thing.

Hillary said in her speech in so many words: Volunteer for my campaign. Elect me. I will talk to Congress and make deals.

Sanders says: Volunteer for my campaign. Elect me. And I will rely on you to talk to Congress with me and we will make the deals together.

That's our choice for 2016 right there.

Which candidate do you REALLY want?

I want Bernie.
