For some time I've been calling Bernie Sanders a social democrat, much like the New Dealers. Bernie has called himself a democratic socialist.
One way to differentiate between a social democrat and a socialist is whether the candidate wants to nationalize the coal industry. If he does, he's a socialist.
Sanders wants to nationalizes all of the fossil fuel industries (not a bad idea). That would be a major step toward lessening global warming and ending government by Big Oil.
Bernie Sanders is a democratic socialist.
