[appalachiablue]

Last night April 27, Jane Sanders and Ed Schultz had an in depth discussion about the political revolution that pushes on and the campaign in terms of status, personnel, strategy, issues, differences with Clinton, the future and convention.

Ed showed video clips of Clinton's speech from the night before, noting many similarities to Bernie's platform including expanding social security, college debt and healthcare issues. "The talking points are exactly Bernie’s talking points and we’ve known for the last year that she’s moved much further to the left, in terms of campaign rhetoric,” Jane Sanders said. But Jane stressed that people have to look at Bernie's long term commitment to issues like anti- fracking and trade policies that he's always opposed. In the upcoming races in Oregon and California people will be surprised at his strength Jane added.

It seems Bernie has not only turned Clinton on some issues, but also Trump who is talking a lot lately about trade and helping workers, Ed commented. Jane responded that in looking at all the candidates, compared to a year ago when Bernie first announced his campaign, "Bernie's won already in terms of shifting the frame of the debate." He's brought things to the surface and has people actually talking about the issues. Bernie's brought millions of people in, some who had given up on the political process, she emphasized.

She has no doubt Bernie would fare better than Clinton against Trump as the polls show. It's the closed primaries where he's not gaining. Bernie is rallying and working hard in Indiana now, and Jane said they are looking forward to winning a lot of states coming up and looking forward to continuing the fight to win the nomination.

2. Jane is amazing, quick and articulate. Also pleasant. Throughout Bernie's campaigns

and public service over years, Jane's definitely absorbed and managed a lot. She has the skills and attitude to handle about anything I'd say!

3. NOAM CHOMSKY: SANDERS is Not Radical, He Has Mass Support for Positions on Taxes & Healthcare.

Noam Chomsky countered the "interesting characterization" of Sanders as “radical and extremist” by describing him as a * “mainstream New Deal Democrat" on DN.
The MIT professor emeritus pointed out that Sanders’ ideas on TAXES and HEALTHCARE are supported by the majority of the American public and have been for a long time.
>“During the Reagan years, about 70 percent of the population thought that NATIONAL HEALTHCARE should be in the Constitution because it’s such an obvious right, and in fact, about 40 percent of the population thought that it was in the Constitution,” he noted.

>He pointed out that dismissing Sanders as a RADICAL is an indication of how the spectrum shifted to the right during the neo-liberal period, “so far to the right that the contemporary Democrats are pretty much what used to be called moderate Republicans and the Republicans are just off the spectrum, they’re not a legitimate parliamentary party anymore.”
