Why would anyone think that a socialist, Bernie Sanders (a.k.a. Rip Van Winkle) would be a good choice for president when socialism is failing around the world? Venezuela is in dire straits, Brazil should be an economic engine, but is in a multi-year recession, Cuba is a mess despite attempts by President Incapable (obama) to prop them up; and Europe is a disaster as decades of socialism are now taking their toll.
Do people study current events and past history? Socialism simply doesn't work. I don't think Sanders has much of a chance, not because Hillary is a strong candidate; it's more of a factor of the dems not letting Sanders win because they know that he means what he says, as opposed to Hillary, who is just saying it to get elected.
But the number of people who think Sanders is the answer is pretty scary. Do these people think they need to government to help make them successful? Why are they scared to work hard and pay the price for success?
As far as Sanders wanting to make college free for everyone, this would not be a problem if the liberals who run almost all colleges hadn't screwed this up so badly by raising tuition rates so much. Liberals create the problem and then they expect liberals/socialists to come in and fix it? There is no logic there.
