Damn! I now have something in common with Debby Wasserman-Shultz. I can’t tell the difference either.

Already during WWII, F. A. Hayek’s classic book, The Road to Serfdom, was dedicated “to the socialists of all parties.”

Not likely. Sanders can say anything, but the issue is always the revolution.

Wow, Debby Wasserman-Shultz actually got it right for a change....giving rise to the old expression “even a blind rabbit can find a carrot every once in a while”.

>> The difference is that Sanders is to the right of Clinton <<

That being said, I think the biggest difference between Bernie and Her Highness is that Sanders is actually an honest man, in that he doesn’t try to hide his socialist identity. In fact, he positively revels in openly declaring his extreme left-wing ideology, whereas Hillary is all about deception, distortion and duplicity, on all fronts, all of the time.

The major difference is Bernie adheres to his principles whereas Hillary would sell Chelsea into slavery to acquire the powers she thinks are her birthright.
