Biblical Argument for Bernie

Jim, a Liberty University Alumnus, explains how an Evangelical Christian can be both theologically conservative and politically liberal, and support Bernie Sanders.

Hi Berners! I heard this recently on Nicole Sanders' (a terrific Progressive talk show host on RadioOrNot.com) program and thought I'd share. Although I'm not religious (and neither is Nicole), I love this guy's response to Bernie. Hope it's not a dupe.

Someone, or some people wrote the words attributed to Jesus and they are about love and helping the least of us.

So this man, in my mind, is a true follower of "Jesus" and the beauty that is represented in the idea of him.

Which is wonderful.

I has a long thread with someone earlier and appartently I was too thick for words...I will go back and try to get it. I am in the middle of studies and my brain is thinking in terms of processes for software not real world!


Get some shut eye!
