Politicus USA<\/em> has the article Bernie Sanders Terrifies Wall Street By Vowing To Keep Them Out Of His Cabinet<\/a>. Quoting from an interview with Jake Tapper, the article had the following:<\/p>\n

\nSanders:<\/strong> Unlike many other presidents, they \u2014 my Cabinet would not be dominated by representatives of Wall Street. I think Wall Street has played a horrendous role in recent years in negatively impacting our economy and in making the rich richer.<\/p>\n

There are a lot of great public servants out there, great economists who for years have been standing up for the middle class and the working families of this country who know that it is an international embarrassment that we have the highest rate of childhood poverty of any major country on Earth.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

However, even the liberal Politicus USA<\/em> has to throw in a comment that shows how little about Bernie Sanders they comprehend.<\/p>\n

\nIf Sanders were to be somehow elected, it would be Wall Street\u2019s biggest nightmare come true. The problem that he would have in governing is the same that President Obama currently faces. If Republicans still control all or any part of Congress after the 2016 election, the Sanders agenda would go nowhere.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In response to this, I replied with the following:<\/p>\n

\nI will add my voice to all the others to point out that even Politicus USA doesn\u2019t get Bernie Sanders. You have a question for him, and he has the answer, but you don\u2019t ask it of him.<\/p>\n

Bernie Sanders sent an email<\/a> to his followers explaining the great mistake that Obama made when he took office. The email promises that Sanders will not make the same mistake.<\/p>\n

To paraphrase the email, when Obama took office, he essentially told the huge political organization that he had built to win the race, \u201cYou can go home now. I\u2019ll take it from here. I\u2019ll just negotiate on my own with Boner and McConnell.\u201d Many of us tried to catch his attention to tell him what a big mistake he was making. After many years in office, Obama never did figure it out.<\/p>\n

Not only has Sanders remarked on this great blunder, but thousands if not millions of Obama supporters noted it too. How can Obama be so blind, given his level of intelligence?\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Any comparison of Bernie Sanders to our current President and worst negotiator the world has ever seen is a gross “misunderestimation” of Bernie Sanders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
