I have heard anecdotal evidence that Trump and Sanders share some support, that's fascinating. And I can see it, even if the two guys are polar opposites in so many ways. That's clearly how frustrated so many people are right now.One amazing thing I'm hearing (I don't have data on this) is that there is more than a little crossover support between Trump & Sanders.And maybe explain it without the standard hyperbole and partisan BS.
The plutocrats have had their way with the rest of us for years. If you are among the very very rich, you have had it GREAT.
The unwashed masses have finally figured that out.
Trump is offering a authoritarian populist figure as an alternative to the plutocrats that run the country.
The plutocrats are not happy.
Bernie is offering the same idea, just in a different way.
Very interesting.
Incredible.

I, for one, am a part of that thinking. I want a person in the White House who is vested in the American Dream of Liberty and Justice for all. Main stream Republican and Democrat leaders alike have abandoned that ideal. A black being elected has nothing to do with the current unrest. It has simply happened that a black man, who was elected, has failed to deliver on that ideal. If I were to cast blame, I personally would charge the senior Bush and his pushing the GOP to embrace the New World Order at the expense of all Americans. As a now registered Independent voter my vote will go to either Bernie Sanders or Donald Trump. If that makes me a "Populist" then so be it. I am sick of business as usual and the deceit it fosters. Liberals and Conservative alike make me ill. And yes, fortress America sounds better with each passing moment. Two thirds of nations on this globe contribute very little internally to cause the globe to prosper. They have had more assistance over the past fifty years than they will admit and still fail. What have the open border trade agreements done other than hurt Americans. No thank you to them on that issue. Nuff said.
Good stuff, thanks.
