You're not going to get substance from an ardent supporter of a candidate short on substance.
When asked for specifics on how he's going to accomplish a certain policy, Bernie says "we need a political revolution!"
When asked how to do that, Bernie says "we need to get money out of politics!"
And how do you do that, Senator Sanders? "We need to have a political revolution!"
Then there's a rant about the "Big Banks" on Wall Street, the 1%, income inequality, and all the other things Bernie will address by having a "political revolution."
Of course you're not going to get anything other than Bernie's talking points in response. That's all he's got, so that's all the followers got.
Bernie is wanting to return to where we have already been.
To a time where it was understood that the problems created by capitalism needed vigorous government action.
Away from the domination of money through surrogates like Bill and Hillary who will sell out any principle for personal gain.
I've already heard Bernie's rhetoric. How does he effectuate said rhetoric into policy, and keep said policy in place?
