Bernie doesn't really "converse" with people and thus never seems to have his single-focus worldview challenged in any way. I'm not even sure whether he would tolerate having it challenged, however, and he seems to be blindly rigid about what others can or should do. If he were as tolerant towards others as he appears to be towards himself - where his own standards are not quite as purist (attracting defense contractors in-state; sending nuclear waste to poor communities; voting for "some" wars, but not others, etc. ...) - he would not only be a better politician, he would be a kinder human being.

Hillary listens and learns. As she learns, she evolves and generally she grows wiser. Yes, she makes mistakes because, like all of us, she isn't perfect. But she IS perfect compared to ANY GOP alternative.

After all, evolution all is NOT a bad thing - unless we all think that we would have been better off as ape-man or Neanderthals. Hmm - perhaps in some ways, we might have been.
