Sanders and Corbyn: There Is An Alternative

MORNING MESSAGE

Robert Borosage
Sanders and Corbyn: There Is An Alternative

Corbyn’s victory and Sanders’ stunning rise in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination – he now polls better than Clinton in both New Hampshire and Iowa, the only states where voters are paying much attention – suggest a new sea change could be in the making ... a revolt against politics as usual. What the chattering gaggles of “political strategists” find it difficult to absorb is how much people are fed up with an establishment politics that has utterly failed them.

the harm ever since and now the exciting growth of Sanders and Corbyn to the left. Where does Hillary stand in this transition is an issue. Glad for Corbyn's recent landslide victory. When I lived in England briefly as a student just before Thatcher's reign, the trains ran well, London was great, and the country wasn't falling apart from strikes and inflation, contrary to some posts here.
