In reply to the discussion: BREAKING: Bernie Sanders Says He Met With Pope Francis [View all]Kalidurga
(14,177 posts)184. Well that describes most of my relatives...
Then there are those that are mean on the outside and meaner on the inside. I can easily see where Bernie's anger comes from and it doesn't even scare me a little. In fact it makes me feel safer cuz he is on my side. But, I can see why it scares Hillarians because Bernie isn't on their side of the status quo.

Nobody is going to change their vote away from him just because he met the pope either.

I am sure he does feel honored that the Pope he admires greatly took the time to talk to him
