This analysis gets it exactly right about the Sanders campaign for the presidency:

Not only were his promises completely unrealistic, he forgot the most important issue:
\nstopping our illegal wars!<\/p>\n

Then he endorsed Hillary instead of fighting to create a new party to take us far beyond
\nClinton and Trump. https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/?p=57250<\/a><\/p>\n

Shame on you, Bernie Sanders! You missed a golden opportunity to move the country
\naway from more wars and towards a higher version of its current self.<\/p>\n

Now we see Trump morphing from his populist potential into what so many feared he might become, a petty tyrant: http:\/\/www.veteranstoday.com\/2016\/12\/27\/the-church-of-neoliberal-evangelicals-trumps-cabinet\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Had we seen a Rand Paul, a Tulsi Gabbard or even Sanders himself to take on the TPP,
\nas part of Trump’s cabinet, the president-elects claim to a broader mandate along the lines
\nI envisioned might have had some legitimacy. Instead it seems to have quickly evaporated
\nin the haze of increased military spending, the threat of an arms race and the prospect of
\nnew wars that constitute his rhetorical tweets during the transition period.<\/p>\n

If the country can survive until 2020, I would love to see someone like Congresswoman
\nGabbard emerge as a true people’s champion, opposed to imperial wars abroad and in
\nfavor of fairness here at home: https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/?p=59698<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-61607","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61607","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=61607"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61607\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=61607"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=61607"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=61607"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
