A defiant Bernie Sanders on what he's trying to achieve in his presidential campaign.

Bernie will take his campaign all the way to the convention. We called him a sheepdog back in May 2015, and he's filling exactly that role, enticing the Dems' captive constituencies back into the trunk of the party one more time, where their votes will count but their demands. The issues that made supporters "feel the Bern" will be ignored. That's what it means to be a captive constituency.

"The Best Learning Is From Experience - The Duopoly Is Rigged To Deny Representation Of The People: "I served proudly as a first round Democratic Delegate. I got up and spoke on behalf of Bernie at my caucus. Fueled by my personal belief in his message and truths, I thought seriously about continuing onward politically, as far as it took to make a real difference. Then I found out some of the details they don't tell you, but are being slowly exposed more and more daily- it's all rigged. The rules are an antiquated sham, the process has holes big enough to drive a truck through, and everything comes down to money, salesmanship, connections, and leveraged party loyalty. It's a glorified pyramid scheme that makes a mockery of actual democracy, grooming people to be good Democratic career politicians who fall in line for those senior few who play the game best. Layers upon layers of petty power games and agendas separate the voice and will of the people from any actual political, governmental, and legislative representation."

Politics and polling data reveal a remarkable shift in American attitudes toward socialism. More Democrats now view socialism favorably (42 percent) than unfavorably (34 percent). Among young adults, socialism does even better with a 43 percent favorable view vs. only 26 percent unfavorable. Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders, a self-described Democratic Socialist, has surprised the establishment with the strength of his campaign.

"This is where Bernie Sanders comes into play. You may not subscribe to many of Sanders’s ideas—particularly, those on limiting trade. But one thing is certain: he is really beginning a political and economical revolution. According to our research, Sanders is the only candidate in this race, and actually in the last few decades, who is not taking money from special interest groups. Sanders managed through grassroots movements to raise close to 100 million dollars from the “dispersed public”: that is, taxpayers, consumers, and investors that usually cannot organize and get representation in democracy because they are a large, heterogeneous group that cannot overcome the free rider problem. Sanders is defeating the model that has ruled politics for many years."
