57. So what is Bernie's plan to get things done?

He has never had one. His pie in the sky ideas will never get enough support from Congress to pass. His supporters gloss over that. Our system of government is based on compromise.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
