Throwback 2003 video of Bernie Sanders summarizing the Republican Agenda. He was always right.

Politics isn't about gettin' it right, but gettin' it: land, money, power, military defense, technological advantage. If you lookin' for morals in politics...
We might not get everything we want but the way to make progress is to move the political apparatus in that direction

That's what people don't understand. In a democracy things move very slowly.

You might get only 60% of what you want in an election. But over time it adds up.

You could get 100% of what you want with a leader but then you're in a dictatorship.

Right. And in that sense, Bernie’s runnin ‘16 was one of the most successful progressive movements in history. Half the shyt we just accept as commonplace now by the democrats were shyt he was being laughed at on stage with Hilary as unrealistic in 2016.

You talkin' 'bout ideologies, I'm talkin' 'bout a science.
