2. What gets me about this kind of thing - from all candidates

Is that the president of the United States does not have the authority or ability to do it anyway.

I care about two and only two things during presidential elections:

1. Who is going to have sole authority to launch nukes, and
2. Who is going to be appointing Supreme Court justices.

For me, that's it. It is, incidentally, the sum total of my reasons for preferring Sanders, marginally, to Clinton

But I'm always amused at the relative turnout among presidential elections, mid-term elections, and assorted state races. If people gave an actual shit about any of this stuff, they'd vote. They don't.

Every presidential candidate has this roster of "I plan to do this, that and the other thing", and throughout the year people argue over differences among the candidates and their respective list of wonderful plans and ideas.

"So which would YOU rather do?"

I would absolutely want to see B happen.

I'd love to see the list of Congressional candidates, state legislators, governors, and all of the people necessary for whom I should vote to have a flying frog's fart of it actually happening. It's not going to happen because President Sanders wants it to happen. So what is the actual plan to have it happen.
