Thanks. For anyone reading, Bernard "Bernie" Sanders (born September 8, 1941) is the junior United States Senator from Vermont. Sanders is the longest-serving independent in U.S. congressional history. A self-described democratic socialist,[5][6][7][8] he favors policies similar to those of social democratic parties in Europe, particularly those of Scandinavia.[9][10][11] He caucuses with the Democratic Party and has been the ranking minority member on the Senate Budget Committee since January 2015.[12] After unsuccessful candidacies for Vermont's governor and U.S. senator in the early to mid-1970s, Sanders was elected mayor of Burlington, Vermont's most populous city, in 1981. He was reelected to three more two-year mayoral terms before being elected to represent Vermont's at-large congressional district in the United States House of Representatives in 1990. He served as a congressman for 16 years before being elected to succeed the retiring Republican-turned-independent Jim Jeffords in the U.S. Senate in 2006. In 2012, he was reelected by a large margin, capturing almost 71% of the popular vote. Since his election to the Senate, Sanders has emerged as a leading progressive voice on issues like income inequality,[6] climate change,[13] and campaign finance reform.[14] He rose to national prominence on the heels of his 2010 filibuster[15][16] of the proposed extension of the Bush-era tax rates for the wealthy. Sanders is also outspoken on civil liberties issues, and has been particularly critical of mass surveillance policies such as the Patriot Act.[17][18] Sanders announced his intentions to seek the Democratic Party's nomination for President on April 30, 2015, in an address on the Capitol lawn.[19][20][21] His campaign was officially launched on May 26 in Burlington.[22]

Obama: It is time for government to work for Main Street instead of Wall Street! Democrats: Maybe he will jail the bankers. Voted for him instead of Hillary. (8 years later) Sanders: I am introducing a bill in the Senate to jail the bankers! Democrats: This guy is too far left and unelectable. Will vote for Hillary instead.
