Bernie Sanders kicked off his Presidential Campaign holding a rally in Burlington, Vermont attended by some 5,000 supporters.  Sanders called for a "political revolution" saying there's something, quote, "profoundly wrong" when so much of the nation's income goes to the top one percent. He added, "This grotesque level of inequality is immoral. It is bad economics. It is unsustainable."

Sanders is 73 and he describes himself as a "democratic socialist," to which we said –“What’s That?”

The answer is as close as the nearest Google search: Democratic socialists believe that both the economy and society should be run democratically—to meet public needs, not to make profits for a few. To achieve a more just society, many structures of our government and economy must be radically transformed through greater economic and social democracy so that ordinary Americans can participate in the many decisions that affect our lives. – From Wikipedia, where else!

To which we ask, "how much worse can that be than Hillary?"
