I think Bernie should borrow Robert Reich's book title for his campaign: Saving Capitalism
He could give Robert Reich credit but if he started saying we want to save capitalism over and over and gave the same context as he has been giving such as the money has been moving from the middle class to the 1% because the so called "free market" has been hijacked to only work for the top 1% I think a lot more independents and even moderate Republicans would be open to looking at what he is saying. I think he still has a chance but if it had been me running his campaign I would have suggested something more inline with Reich's title. Lets face it, Bernie doesn't want to get rid of Capitalism, he wants it to work for everyone by using a few Gov programs to level the playing field so Capitalism works better for everyone not just the 1%.
