Noam Chomsky: Young Bernie Sanders Supporters are a "Mobilized Force That Could Change the Country"

 

Well known political dissident, linguist, author and professor, Noam Chomsky, give his insights on what he thinks about presidential runner-up, Bernie Sanders. He gives credit to Bernie for being a radical extremist, which is a good thing to be in this day in age. Bernie's character brings out a new breed of mainstream New Deal Democrat, as Chomsky describes it. It is a good thing for the younger generations to follow. They way Bernie portrays himself would not be surprising to Chomsky if Bernie was running during the Eisenhower days. Chomsky theory is that anyone who doesn't accept New Deal programs should not be part of any political system. He adds, that young people need to be more involved in organizing, mobilizing in order to make change happen.
