He is a proud member of the Elizabeth Warren wing of the party.

While it may seem like a bit of a dog bites man story, Democrats are renowned for being in love with higher taxes. How does Bernie measure up on that score?
SANDERS: … If my memory is correct, when radical socialist Dwight D. Eisenhower was president, the highest marginal tax rate was something like 90 percent.
HARWOOD: When you think about 90 percent, you don’t think that’s obviously too high?
SANDERS: No. That’s not 90 percent of your income, you know? That’s the marginal. I’m sure you have some really right-wing nut types, but I’m not sure that every very wealthy person feels that it’s the worst thing in the world for them to pay more in taxes, to be honest with you. I think you’ve got a lot of millionaires saying, “You know what? I’ve made a whole lot of money. I don’t want to see kids go hungry in America. Yeah, I’ll pay my fair share.”
 
Actually it has been there for quite awhile. Is Mike Huckabee and Ben Carson showing us where the Republican party has gone?
 
I would take Huckabee or Carson in a heartbeat over Sanders. His vision would destroy this country. Socialism has never worked and yet, he and Warren believe it is the best economic system for the U.S. And as years pass, more and more dems fall in line. When Hillary Clinton is viewed as too conservative by many in the modern Dem party, something is seriously wrong with the party.

The media always complains about how far right the Republicans have moved and pay zero attention to how far left the Dem have moved.
