The amazing deal promised by the Bernie Sanders healthcare plan - everybody gets everything covered while saving thousands of dollars a year - is a classic pie-in-the-sky campaign promise.
Tantalizing, but utterly unrealistic and far beyond the nation's means.

The Bernie Sanders tax plan to pay for his ambitious expansion of government social programs is riddled with flaws and risky assumptions.

At a glance, Republican front-runner Donald Trump couldn't stand further to the right of his self-described "democratic socialist" rival Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).
Yet there are peculiar Donald Trump-Bernie Sanders parallels: The two 2016 presidential candidates resonate with voters for many of the same reasons...

Presidential hopefuls Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders have not minced words on how they feel about the Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement.

Bernie Sanders' donations topped $26 million last quarter, as he continues his race for the Democratic nomination. That's just below the $28 million Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton raised during the third quarter.
