(19,326 posts)He has amply demonstrated how he can do this in his own state of Vermont, and how he's
appealing to American voters of all stripes in this Primary.
This is why Sanders keeps talking about a 'political revolution', an awakening to our inherent
interconnectedness as a people, it's why he went to Liberty University and still drew respectful
applause and even won-over some fundamentalist Christians to actually support his presidency.
Bernie's basic decency as a human being, his obvious courage in the face of adversaries, his
unwavering support of causes that benefit, workers, poor and middle class Americans for decades,
his clear-eyed visionary hope for a better tomorrow .. <-- these qualities are as rare as hens
teeth these daze in DC, which is why we desperately need Bernie in the WH.
