I’m over them as well. Naive. Silly. Wasteful. If President Obama had always been taking the most idealized route , he would never have gotten the ACA passed and 20 million ++ folks would not have health care and kept it despite all 57 tries to eliminate it ( and the preconditions !) RBG makes the argument that incremental movement forward when society has the support of a program is the most long lasting and effective way to change things for the better. Bernie and the far left have pushed things forward, and that is a good thing but he never could accomplish his major legislative acts because he did not understand that a revolution is not what was the nation could support. Instead America needed a revelation.
