Senator from Vermont. With a Brooklyn accent as thick as all get out. Why are so many left-wing Democrats not actually from the places that they represent?
You mean why isn't he like Texas-born former governor of Texas, George W. Bush and Florida-born former Florida governor, Jeb Bush and California-born former governor of California Ronald Reagan?
I don't know, maybe people move around this country pretty frequently? Bernie Sanders moved to Vermont in 1964, that's only 50 years ago...

Not to mention the popular vote for Congress in 2014, which Democrats also won.
Other than all the above, yeah, Republicans are wildly popular.
What in the heck are you talking about, please explain your comment?
As for Reagan destroying the middle class, I don't know where you were then or if you were even alive,but let me tell you: he did nothing of the kind. Most of us, who were young or middle aged at the time prospered under his Presidency and our kids and grandkids, who were raised to work hard and respect our country are still doing just fine.
The only thing you can hang on reagan if you try hard enough, is the downfall of the unions. Well believe it or not, there are a lot of people in the middle class that not only do not belong to unions, don't have much respect for them either.
12 pages in and no-one on the right can explain why they think he's a wing nut.
Oh! I know this one:
Because instead of being right of center like the last few Democrats, Bernies actually a real left of center democrat. And that pretty much is beyond their experience lately. They really do think of the last few democratic presidents as being ultra left wing.....despite being very much right of center politicians.
I'm truly looking forward to the debates that involve him.

The last right of center Democrat was Zell Miller.
The fact that you think today's batch of extremist Democrats are right of center tells us that you are deluded and out of touch with respect to the political ideology of this country. Perhaps you should move to Sweden or Cuba immediately. Your ideological continuum would make sense there.
