He is America's Tommy Douglas and I hope he stays in politics down there even after he loses his nomination race. They need a voice of sanity and reason down there.

does he have an actual plan to fix wealth inequality using the powers of the presidential office? or is he just saying nice things, but will find "oops turns out the presedent can't do that, it's congress job" like Obama?

He's obvi gonna have to jump through some bigass hoops (and unlike Barack "I Got Dis" Obama, he will be relying on ongoing grassroots support) but the dude is absolutely onto the right wavelength. And that in itself can set a future precedent for greater income equality.

he will use a line item veto to cross out individual letters in legislation in order to piece together his own bills, like a kidnapper sending a ransom note

leader of whatever party he/she from, suggests legislation they want that congress will maybe pass, somebody in congress drafts it.

Rip line-item veto. Though I believe the Supreme Court ruling was correct on that issue.

Atomizing the proletariat benefits the Bourgeois. The Middle Class, Working Class, etc are all brothers against the common enemy, the global 1%.

He's kind of like Lenin in that he thinks working people should control their own fate, and society should be organized to benefit the vast majority.

And he's kind of like Lennon in that he's bigger than Jesus.
