Jimmy, the difference between what you say & Chris says about Bernie is a huge gap. Chirs is balanced with his criticism. Chris knows him, endorsed him & he may not admire Bernie's choice re supporting hillary but admits Bernie's reasons as pragmatic & less dangerous to his life which we all think was threatened. Chris voted for Jill. Yet, Cornell tho also disappointed voted for Bernie & helped draft the platform. Both brilliant men.
You, Jimmy, BASH Bernie like a child who is disappointed that Santa didn't bring the toy he wanted. IF elected, Bernie would not have been able to get a damn thing done anyway with the crooked system in place -- he would have been another handcuffed, silenced Jimmy Carter. Bernie knew it, too. Please be more balanced. Show Bernie some respect.
Because right now flaws & all, Bernie is the best representative in Congress for progressives. Bernie has done more NOT being president than he could have as president. I have respect for what you do, Jimmy but be fair. Inspire young people to get involved to believe again in the power of the people. Be clever & wise like George Carlin not brash & crass as Stephen Colbert has become. (sad)
Personally, I hope Bernie retires & doesn't run. It would be the right thing to do for him, his family- he has sacrificed too much already. Let young people step up.
