    How do you elect such a candidate in the US when the whole election system is controlled by the people who are the problem? Bernie was pretty moderate, fairly popular and they still ditched him from the elections twice. And to solve the problem the elected politicians have to be way more progressive than Bernie.

      Didn’t they vote on it? If you were member of the democrats couldn’t you have voted for him in primaries? I honestly think many people in the US just aren’t progressive enough even if they’d benefit from it
