Bernie Gave the Best Answer Last Night to 'What Job Would You Want If You Were Not Running For POTUS

When Rachel asked him what job he would like to do if he wasn't in this race, Bernie didn't hesitate:

'I'd like to be President of CNN!' he stated, to loud applause!

And he told us why:


Bernie Universe ‏@BernieVerse 32m32 minutes ago United States

#Bernie2016 - “If I was president of CNN, trust me, the way media deals with politics would radically change.”


More applause!

I doubt he would ask viewers for their opinions of a debate, then delete the results when the viewers responded, as requested, but chose overwhelmingly, the People's Candidate over THEIR choice!

Bernie, unafraid take it to the Corporations lest they might give him some negative coverage!

Just telling the truth and thrilling the audience by doing so.

It's so rare, I still jump up and applaud when he does it!

which belies what comes out of his mouth, which are the most sane ideas I've ever heard from a politician. This man has it all figured out. Of Course George Carlin had this and many other things figured out and the legacy of his genius can be found on youtube. Loved George Carlin. I'm so glad I can visit him for a fix any time day or night.

But back to Bernard Sanders, He has my vote and my financial support, until he wins the Presidency, or loses the Primary.

I feel like I have found my political soul mate. I love the way he looks as well. It reminds me of my college days.

regardless of party or politician.

That would be the real difference.

How do we start a gofundme to buy CNN for Bernie to run after he's done being POTUS?
