Yeah, Bernie was a potentially huge force in American politics around that time. A local politician from around here even went over there to support his campaign, and used that support as a proud badge of honour in their own election campaign. People liked Bernie, not just in the US. A lot of the rest of the world looks on in horror at the way the US is run and we would love to see a government there that cares about the people.
I think the whole Clinton thing is important to remember, it was far more important that Bernie lose than Clinton win.
