They had an opponent file on Sanders that was two feet thick. They would have raked him over the coals with the same bullshit lies they pulled on Clinton. And it all would have come down to this.

Too many people, especially on the Right, see Socialism as a big bogey man. Too much fear involved. They have neither the understanding nor the knowledge about what Socialism is all about. To me, merging some aspects of Socialism with Capitalism would be better for everyone. Think of what good can be accomplished and has been accomplished: labor unions, Social Security, child labor laws, among other things:
