So only Bernie has to answer this question huh? liberal_at_heart Feb 2016 #73

From what I hear from Hillary she isn't even going to try madokie Feb 2016 #38

I'm asking a reasonable question... FrenchieCat Feb 2016 #41

Whats not reasonable madokie Feb 2016 #47

Plan B is "keep trying." Maedhros Feb 2016 #5

So Sanders is running on a Revolution that may not happen, FrenchieCat Feb 2016 #9

I like the keep trying attitude Bjornsdotter Feb 2016 #45

If you have a better plan B, I'd love to hear it n/t arcane1 Feb 2016 #48

Rather than "grand promises," think of them as Ron Green Feb 2016 #7

The error in your thinking is right here. jeff47 Feb 2016 #34

So Plan A is not to pass any legislation during 2-4 Years of a Sanders administration. FrenchieCat Feb 2016 #42
