If Bernie Sanders were to be the next POTUS, would his plans for the country stand a chance in today's polarized Congress?

Bernie has explained repeatedly that he isn't going to change Washington.  He can't.  But, as he says, if millions of people get behind him and support the programs he's talking about, then it won't matter whether Republicans or Democrats control the Congress.  The people will win.

Look at what happened over the last five years with legalization of pot, gay marriage and the $15 minimum wage in city after city.  These changes are happening without any support from Congress.  These changes are happening because the American people are demanding these changes.

If you like Bernie's message, if you support the programs he supports, then vote for Bernie and stand with him as part of this political revolution.  Congress won't be able to stop it.
