The only thing he mentioned with respect to policy is that he agreed with Obama. WeekiWater Apr 2019 #1

I didn't know that agreeing with Obama was a problem? garybeck Apr 2019 #12

do we need an investigation to find out who thought of it first?

the point I'm making is that Bernie has been beating the drum about social security and how to fix it for a long time, long before he ran for president the first time. he was right then, and he is right now. that is all.

"do we need an investigation to find out who thought of it first? "

I don't think we do. Not sure why you would make that comment. I commented on something that is in the video you posted.

"Bernie has been beating the drum about social security and how to fix it for a long time"

We need a leader.

The video is very short.

Knowing something is one thing. Being a leader is something else. I think the ops own premise really highlights one of Sanders greatest flaws as a career politician. He has never been a leader.
