Bernie Sanders' New Ad Will Make You Question What Sort of America You Want to Live in

One built on division, or one built on unity.

By Jack Holmes

Feb 11, 2016

Aside from the usual critiques—"It's too expensive! You can't get that through Congress!"—one of the more popular lines among the Bernie Sanders naysayers is that his rhetoric is too narrow. Is the scope of his message wide enough, they ask, to take him through an entire campaign in the way that "Hope and Change" did for Obama? With two brilliant, decisive pieces of political advertising in a row, his campaign has demonstrated that it's willing to draw a bigger picture, one that goes well beyond billionaires and healthcare.

This ad, titled "Together," is an appeal to a shared American experience and set of values that is completely removed from demographics and money. Like his previous spot, and his campaign more generally, it's banking on the idea that those shared values can create a movement that transcends racial, ethnic, religious, and even ideological lines to insist that government serve the masses. Whether that's a fantasy or not, and whether Sanders is the one to lead that movement, I suppose is up to all of us.


Poster Comment:

Billionaires and healthcare? Healthcare is important because of the aging baby boomers. Billionaires I could care less for. I'm just a peon ex-truck driver with some now minor health problems.

I saw the ad. I left my comments. Mostly about illegal immigration and our wars for Israel.

illegal immigration and our wars for Israel.

The illegals here, if they are working and have a Social Security Number, are now a part of the system.

If they have that number their identity and all of their production is being used as collateral on the national debt. This debt is huge and hard to comprehend. Obummer has increased the debt more than all the other Presidents put together.

Wars for Israel is another boondoggle. Was it Netanyahu that said, "We control America, and the Americans know it."? The Israel Lobby is an unregistered foreign agent and needs to be registered under the law. ;)

Sanders is the reincarnation of Lenin.

Utopia is just around the corner, all the masses need do is sell their soul to Sanders for a free ride in life.

That is the catch. But utopia is a far fling from where we are today. ;)

Why would this ad -- or any other ad -- make anyone question what sort of America he wants to live in?

As for me, there's never been any question about what sort of America I want to live in.

Illegal and legal aliens have one thing in common. They both lower wages fro Native Born Americans.

That video is atrocious -- pure psycho-political prodding. Pushing pushing pushing for more "diversity" even as he tries to sucker us into thinking he can manage the existing Babylon better than the shikse. Boinie for babysitter!!

He's actually ordering us to love diversity and accept white people getting lost in the stampeding hordes. He's even using the ominous, threatening tone they do when trying to sell us. What a farce -- a Jueish Mr. Magoo commie yelling that we should elect him in a jaded, eardrum-wrenching Brooklyn accent.
