On Thursday evening, CNN hosted several townhalls with Democratic presidential candidates, which the panel of questioners turned into a cakewalk for socialist Bernie Sanders.
Among some of the questions posed to the Vermont senator were:
- "I was wondering, why do you care so fervently about economic inequities?"
- "What do you think the young Bernie Sanders in Brooklyn in the 1940s would say if he could see where you are now?"
- "January was the best fundraising month of your entire campaign. You obviously had a great night in Iowa this week, though results are not yet final. Do you now consider yourself the front-runner of the Democratic Party?"
- "I'm drawn to your plan for universal health care. But I'm skeptical since I've been hearing about universal health care from every political candidate I voted for. What makes your plan different and able to become a reality?"
All that was left to do was kiss his ring.
