Don't try and turn this into me making a personal attack or assuming something about you.

It's a straight up logical observation. You are assuming he can figure it out based on nothing, but you question those who assume he cant figure it out. You can't have that argument both ways.

Look, I'm not here to write a treatise...this is CD forum. I can choose how far I want to discuss this point.

There are many who disagree w/ you, many who don't, that's how it is, especially w/ such a heated contest/election as this

I don't think you're attacking me per se, but I don't have to get down in the muck w/ you to prove my own opinion in the matter to you--and neither do you.

It doesn't matter to me if you agree w/ me in the end

Thats fair, I don't expect a full essay on it, but people need to stop pretending its some sort of given fact that Sanders can accomplish any of what he is talking about, these are HUGE sweeping changes that he just acts like getting elected POTUS will give him some magic want to make happen, and happen with no consequences.

Ok, but still for me because I trust him, I believe he can accomplish some of his goals, and no I don't think he has a magic wand--there is no magic, I agree

But really, what are they suppose to say? "You're all really screwed, capitalism will eventually strip America of the middle class with bad trade deals and corporate corruption? We will soon be at one with south America.

The truth won't win any elections my friend.

If you think about it, all they have is hope and dreams to run on.

Nope. He has said 1000 times that no president can do anything on his own. He is the only candidate who says this.

See, its not capitalism that is doing that, its our establishment government and group think voters that allow these things to happen. Some of the biggest issues out there (housing, education, banking, and health care) are also by definition the least capitalistic models out there, hence some of their failures and flat out ridiculous pricing models and outcomes.

Still doesn't make it right. He knows he cant accomplish most of this stuff period, on his own or with the help of an army of supporters.
