Agreed on the reasoning behind Trump and Sanders. I know if I was an American and looking at my choices of another Bush, or another Clinton, I'd be pretty dismayed. People DO want change. I guess they didn't get it with Obama?
The old hope and change thing has become a mantra for liberals over the last decade (wonder why?). No one has lived up to the hype.

Here is a great article on Sanders by my absolute favourite American political commentator at my absolute favourite American political blog (Peter Lawler at NR's Postmodern Conservative).
