I think the thing Bernie can actually accomplish is Campaign finance reform. Repealing Citizens United and lobby reform are, to me, the most important issues facing American government today. There is so much cash infused into the government, it is becoming more and more impossible to get anything done. Dems and Repubs have always hated each other. They have always compromised, until the lobbies gained more power than the people and politicians have to spend the majority of their time raising money so they can outspend their opponent.
Before any major legislative change can happen, the money in politics thing has to be fixed.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
