“The wealthiest 14 people in this country increased their wealth in two years by more than is owned by the bottom 130 million Americans.”

Sadly, he isn’t touting this as an inspirational American accomplishment for others to aspire to. No. He’s suggesting that this is a problem. As if those at the bottom cannot attain the same wealth.
America is the one place that we all have the opportunity to succeed like that. It’s a shame that Sanders demonizes success. I mean, really… who wants to fail?
Listen carefully when he speaks. At least for now, he’s speaking boldly about his plans and “remedies” for the evils (like capitalism and uber-wealthy) that plague our nation.
He’s kicking Hillary’s butt in the polls. That should scare the begeepers out of you. Wake up! Pay attention and get involved. We’re going to need all hands on deck to preserve this nation!
