The distinction Sanders always makes is because there are plenty of minorities, women and lgbt folks that are rich and powerful that dont need squat in the way of representation. Anderson Cooper and Ben Carson are examples of “unordinary” people.

The distinction is simple. Anderson Cooper is gay. He also makes over 10 mil a year and holds an influential position in society. He is not ordinary, and thus needs very little help compared to a poor or middle class minority, lgbt, etc...

The issue is with the amount. 350k income in a year puts you in the top 1% of wage earners. That’s what someone is spending to have a dinner at a fundraiser.

If you find the berniebro offensive you should go take a look at the Breitbert comment sections. Seriously, it’s a real eye opener.
