I feel politically down the middle. I previously supported and voted for Ron Paul, yet before that, I voted for Ralph Nader. I feel like I fit into the small area where these two overlap in their views such as foreign policy. I'm not totally sure on Bernie's stance on Assad and the Syria mess, but I respect his past votes against going into Iraq.
As for Socialism or whatever, I'm just interested in getting some kind of system that works for us, whatever form it takes. I really wonder how expensive it would be to care for our citizens versus how much is spent on the American War Machine.
Aside from that, the GoP isn't offering me anything better and I neither trust the Clintons or want to see dynasty presidencies.
I'm also very intrigued to hear that many economists think Sanders' plans are viable for this country. Break up the Banks; insulate average citizens from unnecessary exposure to risk in the event of a Wall St. crash.
