I want to thank you so much for writing that - it really resonates well with me because you do understand where a LOT of people are coming from. The party hacks doesn't really get it, and until they are hit by a clue by four, they will probably never understand what Bernie represents. Sure, he is no Obama, but I think Bernie transcends them all, and has for the last 40 years - we need someone to push the way. Bernie is it, and I'm happy to say that Bernie is indeed a very rare bird that comes once in a lifetime.
