Libertarian always appealed to me as a middle ground between the two parties- economically (and foreign policy) conservative and socially liberal. I don't like the extreme versions though and like our constitution, so I've been considering myself a "democratic libertarian" like how Bernie qualifies his socialism.

I guess I just want an alternative history fiction of Bernie doing the right thing. "My fellow Americans, I'm taking this opportunity to discuss the deeply troubling DNC emails which were recently leaked..." "Unfortunately due to these circumstances I cannot endorse Mrs. Clinton". "I demand a full recount of primary votes in California..."

Bernie vacationed in the Soviet Union. He expouses communist views and is probably, also a controlled opposition. He also wants to take away guns. Personally, I think there are no authentic people runnign for president, and even if there are, they become puppets to the corportocracy anyway.
