I think, in 1976, titled “Jimmy Carter Revealed: He’s a Rockefeller Republican”, seems the night he was elected governor of Georgia, he called up the Rockefellers asking for political patronage, then he ran as a stealth-liberal, supposedly “Evangelical” candidate.

I was not a Christian back then, but was attending a private Baptist college. The on campus hysterical enthusiasm for Jimmy Carter as a fellow Baptist was amazing. Carter’s morality compared to the evil overlordness of Richard Nixon would make all the bad things go away, forever and ever, amen. My contempt was absolute.
Long, long ago. So much has changed.

Replace with:
The on campus hysterical enthusiasm for Bernie Sanders as a fellow socialist is amazing. Bernie’s proletarianism compared to the evil capitalism of Donald Trump will make all the bad things go away.
Nothing has changed.
