That's true of every Democrat at this point. flor-de-jasmim Feb 2020 #51

Again, how does this voter revolution work in the real world? Gothmog Jan 2020 #21

Beats me. romachrome Jan 2020 #23

sanders' platform is dependent on this revolution Gothmog Jan 2020 #24

All of sanders plans are pipedreams that will never be adopted in the real world Gothmog Jan 2020 #19

why is it called a revolution? Im still trying to figure out what BS has done as a Senator... samnsara Jan 2020 #26

Is this any different than Biden saying he'll get Republican support for his proposals? LonePirate Jan 2020 #27

The same can be said of Biden's agenda... Oldest_Millenial Jan 2020 #28

Again why trust sanders when his agenda is dependent on a voter revolution Gothmog Jan 2020 #29

I think everyone understands that the GOP will stand in the way of any candidate's agenda. DanTex Jan 2020 #30

But sanders keeps promising his voter revolution will force the GOP to be reasonable Gothmog Jan 2020 #31

Yeah, and Biden promises his collegiality will get the GOP to be reasonable. DanTex Jan 2020 #32

No such promises made by Biden... simply an expressed sentiment on his part. LanternWaste Jan 2020 #35

Not exactly sure where you get that one is a "promise" and the other is a "sentiment". DanTex Jan 2020 #36

sanders does not have a magic wand Gothmog Feb 2020 #58

So sanders is promising pipedreams that cannot be adopted in the real world Gothmog Jan 2020 #41
