Cynicism reigns supreme with the establishment who find it so easy to avoid and dismiss Bernie Sanders because he is such a rare historical figure type. They never got the whole 'Power to the People' meme. Now they're trying to pretend that this weekend's landslides didn't really exist.

If you want to predict the trend of the future (upon which economies are based), shouldn't you listen to those expected to be living in the future?
