In reply to the discussion: Bernie Sanders extremely disappointed by stalling of Californias single-payer health care bill [View all]lunamagica
(9,967 posts)telling others what to do, while he has little to show. Now he is lecturing California, a huge state with almost 40 million people, on an issue he could not implement himself in his tiny state of Vermont.
His supporters think that this is perfectly fine, because he is "influential" and "most popular". Supposedly this makes him an authority on whatever issue he is talking about, gives him the right to point fingers and pontificate, and we're supposed to follow.
I'd like to see a real specific reason on what qualifies him for this. Something like what his legislative accomplishments are, and which one are his followers most proud of. This seems to be a really tough and complicated question to ask, because it keeps going unanswered.
So, now will you say which of his legislative accomplishments are you most proud of?
