yes, Bernie Sanders actually runs as a 'socialist'

and yet never has a problem getting re-elected

apparently you have been brain-washed that socialism is an evil anti-american term... much like the term 'liberalism' or 'progressive'

maybe you should cut down on the Fox news channel or whatever right wing diet you are feeding off of

FDR was also a 'socialist' IMO and one of our greatest POTUS...

I consider myself a liberal and social progressive but yet also a fiscal conservative

if that is an "extremist" then so be it

as far is this board is concerned, look around... how many political boards are nothing but right wing hate-mongers and liars and how many are actually liberal or progressive who stick to facts? the right wing nut jobs and liars outnumber the progressives by at least ten to one... just like right wing talk radio

yes, i'm an extremist who prefers facts

i'm also a big fan of Rachel Maddow... another evil liberal extremist

i'm also a big fan of Elizabeth Warren... another extremist who defeated Scott Brown

Bernie Sanders is a "Democratic Socialist", which is the form of socialism in many European countries. He's not against capitalism. He just believes the mix should include more socialism, as Europe does.
