Bernie Sanders-pepsi.

Neither one was the real thing.

I would say Ron Paul was the real thing and didn't sell out like bernie in the end.

RP also had the voting record and spoke in common sense.

And as a result, no part of his platform got adopted by the Republicans. Ron Paul's problem was that he was an idealist, he either wanted everything or nothing. Sanders is much more of a realist and as a result Hillary is willing to adopt some of his stuff.

In other words, Ron Paul has integrity while Bernie does not. Ron did not endorse Mitt in 2012. He stuck to his principles. Bernie caved.

Not true , his platform got adopted by a good portion of republicans and even some democrats in the sense that many voters opened up their eyes that the GOP is no different than the DNC and that they are one in the same and owned by corporate America.

Many of the republicans voters today telling the GOP to go F itself can be credited to Ron Paul for bringing the parties BS to the forefront.

Ron Paul's problem was that he was an idealist

More like he was consistent, moral ,ethical, and honest in regards to his voting record and message. He was aware that his message was greater than the GOP or himself.

he either wanted everything or nothing

He wanted common sense and not what either the corrupted GOP or DNC party wanted. Why side with corruption or pander to the party, when in the end they lie and tell the public to F themselves anyways when they side with special interest the majority of the time?

Sanders is much more of a realist and

LOL, and in this fairytale world do unicorns exists? I was in support of Sanders over Trump and Hillary but he was no realist.

1. You can't be a realist when you think its a good idea to make the gov't bigger and stronger when it is rampant with corruption and conflict of interests as been proven by Princeton study and Harvard law professor.

Its like giving more power to the mafia and expecting them to clean up crime.

as a result Hillary is willing to adopt some of his stuff.

Humongous LOL,

You are expecting an incompetent habitual liar and pandering politician riddled with conflict of interest and a blatant disregard for the law to adopt any of his stuff within a corrupted system. That makes him not an idealist or realist , but rather naive at best.

Sorry but Hillary is the polar opposite of Bernies message against corruption and conflict of interest, Bernie sold out and pissed all over his message.
