I will admit, I found the ideas of Bernie Sanders interesting and, although somewhat socialistic, a possible path for a better middle America than what this country is currently experiencing.

That all totally evaporated when I saw Sanders embrace Al Sharpton the other evening on the television.

Sharpton is a disgrace to the political system, owes hundreds (if not millions to the United States in taxes and fines) and is the absolute last person I would recognize as someone who represents America.

Sorry, Bernie, you chose a bad buddy.
