if he’s “atheist” then he’s abandoned his Jewish faith
(which correlates to his socialistic politics)
I guess Bernie Sanders is not an Atheist Jew.
Bernie Sanders disappoints some atheists with his ‘very strong religious’ feelings

Presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders dashed the hopes of some atheists when he declared he had “very strong religious and spiritual feelings†at a Democratic town hall.
“It’s a guiding principle in my life, absolutely, it is,” Sanders said Wednesday (Feb. 3) when a New Hampshire voter asked him about his faith. “Everybody practices religion in a different way. To me, I would not be here tonight, I would not be running for president of the United States, if I did not have very strong religious and spiritual feelings.”
