The media narrative is that GOP voters aren't like that etc but I don't believe that is the case, and public opinion polling data backs me up on that.

More than half of all Americans want social security and medicaid expanded, including the majority of self-identifying republicans in 'red' states. That issue has popular support amongst the electorate.

68% of respondents believe wealthy individuals pay too little tax. 85% of business owners polled are in favour of closing all offshore tax loopholes for corporations.

More than half of all Americans polled are in favour eliminating campaign donations. More than 60% of polled Americans are in favour of raising the minimum wage to $15 by 2020. This extends to organized labour as well, "A new Gallup Poll finds just over half of Americans, 53%, favoring a new law that would make it easier for labor unions to organize workers; 39% oppose it."

Most of what Bernie Sanders is proposing as policy initiatives has broad bi-partisan support from the average American, which is what makes him so dangerous.

Good data, thanks.

Dangerous to whom?
