Well, that was very disappointing, but Bernie does have a point about one thing, solving all the problems he wanted to solve could not be done by him alone. Trying to resolve inequality, gerrymandering, tax breaks for big corps and so-on and so-on are not all issues that can be resolved by the president. You need senators and representatives who aren't bought by monied interests. In fact, I would argue that senators and representatives are MORE important than the president because they are the ones that get to make the damn legislation to begin with. We just need better politicians at the national level, we have really really really fucking shitty politicians at the national level.
