    See, a lot of republicans would probably diagree with your first sentance. And your third for that matter, the republican party leadership doesnt exactly consider trump typical, to its detriment. Some would also say that before trump US government hadnt been run by thier idea of a republican since eizenhower or reagan.

    Bernie and Trump are both reactions to failures to deliver; the desire to find a guy who will actually do what he says he will, as little watering down as possible. With the level of frustration that triggered these reactions whether or not the promised ideas work is almost immaterial.

    Not that either of us would take much interest in the proclimations of inviability/bunk-dom by a competitor in such a polarized enviroment.

    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.
