The cowed Dems, Bernie's broad shoulders and confident smile, and the Repub's not knowing what to do abut Bernie. Love the way Bernie PROUDLY claims his values and views, no pretense whatsoever -- like his speech to Liberty U. and his upfrontedness about being a Democratic Socialist. Shows that smears are only effective against those who fear them.

Cartoons are wonderful communications media and teaching tools.

Thanks, portlander!

they REALLY don't want anyone looking into this socialism thing: they want to keep it an empty word of maximum opprobriousness, as THE thing that's unacceptable in politics

they don't have any idea how to cope with a real one

that if we're going to be called socialists anyway, we might as well quit trying to be corporatists.
