37. Are you for real?

Seriously.

Bernie Sanders has been in government for 33 years. His family's net worth is around $350,000.

He has been considered one of the least corrupt members of Congress or the Senate for a couple of decades.

Your statement could be one of the most absurd assertions I've ever seen on DU.

We all have strengths and weaknesses. Among Bernie Sanders's weaknesses you will not find any willingness or, quite possibly, any capacity whatsoever, to exploit the opportunities of public office for personal financial gain.

Frankly, I expect he's felt really uncomfortable at times about the success of his fundraising.
