Way to Go, Bernie!

Daily Mail

There are postings all over Twitter giving Sander's a hard time because he was flying first class. I completely disagree and actually salute him.

Whether you agree with his politics or not (in my case, not!), running for President is grueling. Grueling! He deserves the extra room. Plus, he was on a small jet so he could have a seat by himself. Given that he has to deal with strangers throughout almost every day of the campaign so his motivation to fly first class was probably to have a few minutes to himself as much as anything.

But, most importantly, he is walking is own walk. By flying commercial, he is putting little additional CO2 into the atmosphere as opposed to flying private. 

Congratulations, Bernie.
