re: #183 andres

This is the sort of thing that turns me off Sanders. He has good ideas, but his most vocal supporters are jerks, and, every now and then, Sanders makes mistakes, like not fundraising for the lower races and the Wikipedia standoff.

The lower races is something that really bothers me. It just shows he doesn’t get the big picture, that you need a Congress to govern. I think he’s talked a lot about FDR especially as a President who signed a lot of trans-formative legislation. FDR also campaigned heavily for those who supported his agenda. Sanders thinks if the Republicans oppose him, the people of this country will just vote the Republicans out or take to the streets in anger. Now I’m not someone who’s unwilling to protest but I’m not being a professional protester for Bernie or any President.
