Socialism 2016?

After a speech on Thursday explaining his socialism ideas, Senator Bernie Sanders gained a positive impression for socialism. 56% of Democratic primary voters polled said that they had a positive feeling of socialism. At Georgetown, Sanders explained that the redistribution of wealth was at the heart of American social contract and even linked himself to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr and Theodore Roosevelt. One interesting fact is that over half of Hillary Clinton's supporters also claimed that they approved socialism. 52% percent of Americans also agree with Sanders that America should place a higher tax on the rich and distribute that wealth back to the poor. It is also good to note that socialism is very highly rated with Americans under the age of 30.
