Awesome Things about Bernie Sanders
Here’s a list of some of the awesome things I was able to compile about my favorite (and only) candidate, Bernie Sanders.
- Longest serving Independent in Congress in history.
- He calls himself a Democratic Socialist.
- He knows his facts. He backs up his arguments with facts.
- He will NOT run as an Independent if he loses the Democratic nomination.
- He uses Uber, flies coach and is willing to sit in the middle seat, sleeps in cheap Motels across the country.
- He got 71% of the vote the last time he ran for Congress.
- He is treated as a fringe figure but he truly is the only serious presidential candidate in the race. He’s the only one with a decent vision for the country and his record indicates he would follow through if elected.
- He’s never run a negative campaign ad in his life.
- He voted against DOMA, NAFTA, the Patriot Act, the war in Iraq, the Bush Tax Cuts, and a lot of other bills that were passed that turned out to be huge mistakes proving his judgement and instinct can be trusted and he’s not afraid to fight.
- He’s for a living wage. If you work 40 hours a week you should not live in poverty.
- 99% of Sanders campaign contributes have come from small donors. (Less than half of one percent of his donors have given the maximum. Three quarters of his donors give less than $200.)
- He has a positive favorability rating.
You can’t say those things about anyone else who’s running; including Hillary Clinton.
