It is a great article that highlights many things that contradict Sanders' packaged image as an "honest" candidate, as a "non-establishment" candidate, as a champion of the people candidate, and as a progressive, but certainly not all of them. This is how he has chosen to sell himself and due to the fact that he has been under the radar as a rather ineffective career politician until the last couple of years when Elizabeth Warren hit the senate floor with a new style that gave Sanders some pizzazz--finally, for his sake. And now here he is trying to fulfill his dream of leading a revolution of his own.
He seriously wants to be the leader of a revolution! He has been fascinated with socialist tyrants who gained power through revolution for many years. He went to see Daniel Ortega, a corrupt tyrant, and called him "impressive." He tried to meet Fidel Castro and was rebuffed, but some lesser staff member met with him, and he traveled to Russia and honeymooned there. I don't believe he wants to be a tyrant, but he does want to lead a revolution in order to transform a nation, and we have already started to see how his followers want to bully others and shut down their voices. This whole "revolution" is going to cause huge problems for the Democratic Party and for its agenda of real meaningful change that will hold against Republican-led assaults.
