Bernie is playing people as fools using the same techniques that Trump and Cruz are using. He promoted soundbytes that appeal to all. But view the details. That means each proposal must take pages of text to understand. What he says is not only impossible. In many cases, it would even destroy jobs and enrich the rich.

Most of us do not grasp or demand details (always demand numbers). Most of us only hear soundbytes that also proved cigarette improve health and that Saddam has WMDs to threaten America. In both cases, only a minority (the educated) knew otherwise.
