Bernie is trying to create the biggest government in history? Bringing back the era of big government and making it bigger than ever? What was that about?

This town hall was intended to put Bernie on the spot. It won't work though because of his honesty in politics. That's the trump card over all of this because he has no ulterior motive.

(975 posts)But I think most Democrats understand that we need big government considering what we face economically (Repub voters as well). I think the question would have more effect if it was in a general election setting instead of a Democratic town hall.
