I'm all for Bernie Saunders ... I like the guy and appreciate him and his message ... but if American progressives are relying on an 85 year old figurehead to lead their movement ... holy hell, America is deeper in the hole than I imagined.

A long history of doing the right thing shows truthfulness and conviction.

Some new guy might say all the right words, but with no history, how do you know if he'll turn on you as soon as he's in power?

Survive him? Sanders's movement has completely outrun him.

Sanders is looking more and more like a liberal by comparison to his current supporters.
