Supreme Bernie
from Plausibly Live - The Dave Bowman Show
There is much handwringing and worry over the idea that a self-avowed Communist �won� New Hampshire and possibly Iowa (although those results may not be available for another year). Of all of Bernie Sander�s ideas and �plans� for the nation should he be elected, there are many that have generated comments, such as his Medicare for everyone, trillions of dollars for fighting Climate Change or gun control. One of his ideas though isn�t getting as much attention � his plan for �re-inventing the Supreme Court.� Now, on the one hand, his plan is both unworkable and un-Constitutional. That said, have we reached a point in our national life where those facts no longer matter? After all, if we elect a self-avowed Communist to the Presidency of the United States, does the Constitution really even matter anymore?
