WHICH BERNIE HAS DONE MORE FOR AMERICA? Now that’s an interesting question: Has Bernie Sanders, Democratic socialist senator, or Bernie Marcus, co-founder of Home Depot, done more to improve America?
“Marcus, with Arthur Blank and Ken Langone, started a company in 1978 that today has more than 2,200 stores across all 50 states and in Canada. When those men were putting long, grinding hours into their startup in the late 1970s, Sanders was “working” for the American People’s Historical Society. There he made a 30-minute documentary about Eugene Debs, the perpetual Socialist Party presidential candidate whom he called “the great American trade unionist, socialist and revolutionary,” explains Issues & Insights.
Any bets on when the Washington Post or the New York Times will pursue the same question? Me, neither.
