Bernie Sanders’ Phantom Movement: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Truthdig/~3/xL_342NJqxs/
"The Democratic Party is a full partner in the corporate state. Yet Sanders, while critical of Hillary Clinton’s exorbitant speaking fees from firms such as Goldman Sachs, refuses to call out the party and—as Robert Scheer pointed out in a column in October—the Clintons for their role as handmaidens of Wall Street. For Sanders, it is a lie of omission, which is still a lie. And it is a lie that makes the Vermont senator complicit in the con game being played on the American electorate by the Democratic Party establishment."
The two party system is part of the problem.
Hedges articulates my doubts about Sanders: it's a bigger problem.
