I guess if you are ok with the corpratracracy then vote for a Republican.
All this "socialist" talk is just BS. Do you honestly think he can circumvent congress?

It's not the social programs that eat up all your tax dollars...it's needless wars and corporate welfare.

Bernie is against the Super Pacs.
But some of the Super Pacs are "supporting" him with some big outside dough-ray-me.
There are some
“I am very proud to be the only candidate up here who does not have a super PAC,” Sanders said Thursday night, as he has many times before.
While there is no super PAC created solely to support Sanders’s campaign for president as there is for Clinton, several outside groups have spent large sums of money in favor of the Vermont senator.
One of the most prominent is the super PAC of National Nurses United, the nation’s largest nurses union, which has endorsed Sanders.
The group often has volunteers at Sanders events and its super PAC has spent close to $1 million on ads and other support for the senator, the New York Times reported in January. In fact, the group had its biggest off-year fundraising effort ever last year. National Nurses United for Patient Protection brought in $2.3 million in 2015, Politico reported, and it gave significant funds to two other unlimited spending groups supporting Sanders.
Another group, Friends of Earth Action, has been airing ads for Sanders in Iowa and New Hampshire, CNN reported last month. Friends of Earth Action is a 501(c)(4) nonprofit organization, which means it has no limit on the dollar amount supporters can give and is not required to disclose its donors, making it the type of group that Sanders frequently criticizes.

Yes indeed, note the blue.

It's been ignored because it doesn't mean anything in relation to Sander's comments.
Sanders cannot control what other people or organizations do.

My feeling on the Bern, is he is too communist for our own good
