7. A preview of what Sanders supporters would say about him if he became President

Maybe not in those words, but I have no doubt that Sanders would end up being called all sorts of names. Presidents have to do a lot of compromising to govern and Sanders would be unable to avoid it totally. Look at his compromise on the Veteran's bill, because it's proof that he is willing to make a deal.

DUzy. Thanks for the laugh. TheCowsCameHome May 2016 #1
