Most Americans Don't Deserve Someone Like Bernie

46. You really think that is enough?

If you want to see how a revolution happens, look at the way conservatives have taken over school boards et al, gerrymandered districts to the point where they control Congress even without lifting a finger, etc. A revolution is built from the bottom up. Where are the progressives that Bernie helped elect? How can you be the leader of a revolution if you don't build one?

Not only do I pay attention to history, I've lived through and participated in huge social transformation as a young person in South Africa. I have seen first hand what it takes if you want to fundamentally change a society. I'm not seeing anything like that here (and I've lived in the United States now for almost two decades). I'm just seeing an old man who no longer has enough years left to build a movement, and bunch of angry, aggressive followers. I don't see a movement. So color me skeptical.
