Bernie has a progressive populist economic message that builds on the New Deal and connects to FDR, the founder of the modern Democratic Party. Just read Roosevelt’s Second Bill of Rights, Four Freedoms, proposal to cap the income of the wealthy, etc. To improve living conditions for working class people and middle class we have to provide social services and build infrastructure. And must stop climate change. This isn’t an alternative to “identity politics” or rights based agenda, it is a foundation for it.
