Post #380,409 by mmoffitt 9/8/13 5:31:35 PM Reply	He's a sixteenth of a loaf fan. For everybody else, that is. ;0) No, I like Bernie, but he used the ACA in order to get Single Payer in his state. He also switched his political affiliation from Socialist to Independent a few years back. So, he's a pragmatist. He knows that folks like the Obama Administration and his fellow career politicians are beholding to large corporations and he does the best he can by his constituents. In this case, he got the brass ring for Vermont: a single payer health plan.
