Sanders isn't a socialist. Imagine, even an intelligent, well-informed educator like yourself fell for the DNC and MSM nonsense that Sanders is a socialist. No, far from it, and yes, you're right about what socialism is. He never said he was a socialist; that label was attached to him by his opponents, the DNC and its allies NYT, WAPO, CNN, MSNBC who supported Hillary and now Joe. You can't say we have a democracy when the parties force their candidates on us.
