The sad thing is I would imagine Sanders’ ancestors came from either a socialist or communism country to escape from it.

Couldn’t find info on it though.

as for Obama, it’s communism for thee, but not for me. like hitlary.

"His father, Elias Sanders, was born in Słopnice, Poland (then in the Austro-Hungarian province of Galicia),[7][8] to a Jewish family; in 1921 he immigrated to the United States at the age of 17.[7][9][10] His mother, Dorothy Sanders (née Glassberg), was born in New York City on October 2, 1912,[11][12] to Jewish immigrant parents from Poland and Russia."

-Wikipedia

So he's parents came from families escaping Europe, but not necessarily either socialism or communism at the time.
