3. Sanders is simply brilliant at handling the hostile Corrupt Media!

He calls them on their bullshit with a friendly smile and then lacerates them with a REAL answer to their hostile, pro-Goldman-Sachs-candidate questions, and remains throughout a ferocious campaigner AND a gentleman!

He is amazing. Too bad they're black-holing him with Cruz stories and Trump, Trump, Trump. But they, like Clinton herself, in my opinion, have no idea what is happening in this country--not only the boiling unrest that is driving many voters, but also the transformation of electoral politics by internet activism and internet fundraising. These old, stiff, creaking dinosaurs like the New York Times can still snort smoke but the fire of real journalism has left them. And the same thing is true of the Clinton machine and the Clinton-Democratic Party. The fire of the New Deal has left them. It has become mere smoke. More and more people are realizing this--that the dragons of "neo-liberalism" and "triangulation" and their propaganda harpies--are DYING before our very eyes, and a new and revolutionary generation is arising in both journalism and Democratic Party politics.

And amazingly--AMAZINGLY--this revolution has rallied to a 74 year old Leftie who happens to be the smartest guy in the room!
