BERNIE SANDERS AS DEMS NEW FDR--AND LYNCHPIN OF THE CLIMATE JUSTICE VISION If you like Bernie Sanders. or are a fan of the climate justice vision Naomi Klein lays out in This Changes Everything, this articles for you. In recent Facebook comments, Ive praised Klein for her brilliance at synthesis, seizing diverse threads to create a convincing roadmap of our world. I consider this article my own best work of synthesis, showing how Bernie Sanders--if Democrats are smart enough to embrace him--could be their new FDR, offering the same sort of popular, TRANSFORMATIVE leadership that kept Dems in power virtually two decades. While also showing that his candidacy as a Democrat--along with overturning Citizens United as Dems lead issue--is the best first step toward the MUCH better, climate-safe world Klein envisions. Finally, I offer a strategy for making sure Democrats, whose leadership is too under the influence of corporate dollars, to cotton to Bernie, will take his candidacy seriously. Without further ado, heres the article:opednews/articles/THIS-Changes-Everything-B-by-Patrick-Walker-Bernie-Sanders_Catastrophe_Change_Climate-141013-914.html
