(47,143 posts)Every organization can be corrupted. That includes organizations in the past the present and the future. Clintons proposals compare very favorably to Sanders when it comes to taking steps in the right direction.
When people point out that many of Sanders ideas are hard to get done, that is not something to ignore. Put simply, it is up to him to get support in government to enact his proposals.
One way is to show support for his ideas in the public. But when people start looking at the details, there are a lot of concerns. Details that the a lot of his supporters aren't looking hard at apparently.
When simple arguments for his programs are used by him or his supporters, it does very little to build support FOR HIS SPECIFIC proposals in government. That doesn't mean people don't agree that something needs to be done. Its the HOW that is the question.
