Do aspects of this remind you of some Du'ers?

4. That, too...

and an excellent point!

They seem to think that President Sanders (and I'm sorry, but I certainly hope not) will be able to wave a hand and, a la a dictatorship, give us all universal healthcare and candy and unicorns.

Mind you, I approve of all three of those things, but we have a three-way balance of power for a reason.

Sanders does little to discourage this. Much of what he discusses is something that would be impossible without very strong Congressional support. Which he will never have, given that even his own colleagues don't endorse him.

I certainly don't think the idea is in his head to form a dictatorship, but I'm also certain his campaign knows what his supporters are saying in general terms. (Heck, any campaign I ran would have volunteers reading Daily Kos, at least, for the tenor of support).
