When Bernie Sanders can openly embrace the Socialist label, and yet lead in the polls and fill 20,000 seat arenas, the Revolution is here indeed.
He calls himself a “democratic” socialist and maybe ninety percent of America is silly enough to think democratic is a good thing. Even most of those who will never vote for a big D Democrat think that this country is supposed to be a democracy and that is grand. Ask them the difference between a democracy and a republic and they will either tell you that there is none or that a democracy is better. My wife and I walk around shaking our heads at the way words are tossed about now as if there is no certain meaning to any of them. We are approaching the point at which there will be no way to say that anyone is lying because we can’t say for certain what their words mean.
