Suggestions to candidate for Barnstable County Commissioner:

Bernie Sanders rose in the polls because he’s a creation of the media – same as Donald Trump.
Ralph Nader claims Bernie won in the open primary states. That is a lot of hooey: Mississippi, Illinois, Virginia, Georgia, South Carolina, Texas, Alabama, Missouri, Arkansas, Tennessee, Ohio, North Carolina, and South Carolina, which have open primaries, went with Clinton (13) and seven went with Sanders.
Bernie did the best in caucus states, which is about as non-democratic as you can get.
Besides, Clinton thumped him in the popular vote by almost 3.8 million.

I wouldn’t bet on Bernie Sanders’ staying power or the inevitability of his “revolution”.
The media created Sanders, same way that the media created Trump, and as with any media creation, Sanders is but
“a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing..”
