The one best suited, best placed, to fight corruption is the one who is not
the recipient of said monies.

Vote for the mensch, vote for Bernie Sanders.

However, I cannot do that because it would violate my morals to attend a church full of blame, hate and hypocrisy. All the while the people in that church see themselves as the arbiters of morality.

It's a slinky thing, morals.

Bernie went into the lion's den and reminded them that they're a bunch of opportunistic bible thumping hypocrites.

Pretty damned impressive for a secular Jew.

He's a mensch.
