3. Bernie is correct.

Obama assumed the Republicans would be amenable to him in Congress. Never was the case - and he learned the lesson the hard way.

Bernie knows exactly what he will face with Republicans in Congress (assuming the Democrats hasn't at least retaken one of the chambers or both via Bernie's coattails), and will be prepared, if necessary. Bernie will find a way to get the job done: Bernie has always added many amendments to benefit the people to many bills. That is one of Bernie's hidden talents that the M$M doesn't even mention or the Clinton supporters acknowledge - he gets things done.

I hope and pray Clinton can find success with the hurdle she does face if she is the President.

Good luck!
