And why our party is struggling today.

I don't know how that's radical. Unless you hear it from RWrs trying to baselessly discredit him.

Breaking up big banks & getting rid of the bank's power in our political system isn't radical. FDR did it, so it's nothing new. Just common sense & democratic in nature.

EDIT:

(((Sorry, missed the sarcasm, enthusiast!)))

But yeah, RWrs in both parties do call him radical. Pisses me off.
