Rep. Bamberg on Backing Sanders: Most People Don’t Understand Socialism

BLITZER: “Are you at all concerned that he describes himself as a democratic socialist because a lot of your fellow Democrats think that may make him unelectable in a general election? 
BAMBERG: “Oh, no, sir, I’m not concerned at all. In fact, it's my belief that a lot of people who are harping on this democratic socialism thing don’t even truly understand exactly what that means. People in America typically are afraid of change. They tend to go with the status quo. Bernie Sanders represents bold new leadership. He is not afraid to stand up for what he believes in, and he is not afraid to go against the grain. That is one of the things that I like about him most.”
