I notice too that when the MSM talks about Bernie even they use words like 'authentic' and 'genuine'.

I think he is giving us a chance to put our votes where our words have been for a long time now. If we fail to do that, we may not have another chance for a long time.

There will be huge push back as soon it becomes apparent that he really is a 'viable' (to use their word) candidate.

In some ways I hope he manages to keep doing what he is doing, gaining support, letting people get to know him etd, (his poll numbers have been rising steadily since Jan as people DO get to know him) before those who have no interest in seeing the people choose the next president, realize that not only CAN win, but mostly likely will.
