I have often wondered if the Bernie supporters are trying to vote him in to get rid of college debt and/or relieve the future college debt? Bernie speaks a lot about free, free, free. Yet I don't think he has yet stated how to pay for it? I also feel if he was elected, it would be similar to and independent gaining the seat and neither side would work with him. I know he claims to be democrat, but the democrats dislike him it seems.

I think a number do like that policy. With regards to the how, he has offered some partial funding information. In his defense, though, nearly every politician fails to adequately explain how their plans will be funded. As was noted, think to lines like "Mexico will pay for it". 

That said, my candidate, Pete, was fully funded plans. 


With regards to being able to work with people, yea... even AOC has come out and suggested that Medicare for all is not an immediate solution because it doesn't have the votes. The political capital doesn't exist to get a lot of his ideas going.

That's why I like Pete's healthcare plan.
