Dear Bernie, get off your podcast.

You have good ideas, the American people really need you right now. As a sitting senator you have a lot of power. Workers across America need your help rallying support from your colleagues for your ideas. Stop grandstanding on a pod cast! Now is the time to have your ideas come to fruition, even if it's temporary help for the people.

Sanders got kicked out of a commune cause he sat on the couch doing the talking but not doing the work.

None of that matters. He has power in the Senate among his colleagues. He needs to use it and get some REAL progress done.
