FLASHBACK: Bernie Sanders: We Need a "New NATO" that Includes Russia to Defeat ISIS (2015)
RT ^ | 11/20/2015 | Anonymous

What is Democratic socialism? Bernie Sanders, often criticized for endorsing this political philosophy, explained that his view is in sync with America’s development. He also called for shifting foreign policy and creating a “new NATO” including Russia.

Senator Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) spoke in front of an auditorium full of supporters at Georgetown University on Thursday, arguing that his endorsement of the much-vaunted political philosophy of democratic socialism makes him the genuine heir to long-held traditions of the Democratic Party, not a radical.

In doing this, he invoked the name of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, whom Sanders said initiated programs to secure the middle class with New Deal programs.

I bring this up in the context of today's Comey hearings. If the logic is that Russia wanted Hillary to lose, why is no one looking at Russia favoring Bernie in the primaries? Given he almost defeated Hillary in the primaries against incredible odds, it would not be illogical for Russia to have given at least as much support to his campaign as they allegedly gave to Trump. But of course the media is not asking this.

This is exactly global factions are manufacturing Trump vs Putin.
A united USA-Russia would crush Muslim expansion world wide.
It has nothing to do with Russia and everything to do with radical Muslim.

The original name of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union was the Social Democratic Labor Party of Russia. No wonder Bernie has such an affinity.

Sanders was in love with the old Soviet Union, went there on his honeymoon, I understand. Who’s surprised now that he wants NATO to include Russia. Bolshevik Bernie.

In doing this, he invoked the name of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, whom Sanders said initiated programs to secure the middle class with New Deal programs. ................................ New Deal Programs? The only program that saved us was in September 1939, the newer deal became the “Arsenal of Democracy”. F’n Roosevelt put his trust in the communist cabal that he gave access as appointments to government positions. “Uncle Joe” was the biggest benefactor. Bernie grew up in a neighborhood in Brooklyn where daddy brought home the Daily Worker to read at days end. I think socialism is being passed on in their genes.

Goes to show how skilled and effective the Soviet propagandists were. The country was a bucket of starvation and poverty and yet it managed to recruit western disciples.
