If you listen to any proposal Bernie makes, he stipulates it with the statement "I can't do it alone, the President doesn't have that kind of power. It will take a grass roots movement to change government as a whole."
So, everybody who is criticizing him as promising to do magical things by himself, is taking things out of context. Bernie has stressed time and again, things won't change until people vote new representatives into ALL levels of government. Most polls show if Bernie goes up against Trump in a general election, Democrats would take back the Senate and probably the House. If that happened Bernie would have a much better chance of getting some of his policies implemented.
