Like Jeremy Bernie has had, for years and years, the genuine courage of his convictions and stood for what he believed in.
And just like Corbyn the media has decided he's unelectable. The man who was arrested for protesting against segregation in the 60', who campaigned for Gay rights in the 90's and who voted against the 2nd Gulf war is unelectable but the woman who worked for radical Republican Barry Goldwater who opposed civil rights, who made speeches as recent as 2011 against gay marriage and who voted for the 2nd Gulf war is the front runner and media darling.
