a blow-it-all-up candidate. I highly doubt CSC is using that phrase in the context of trying to change representative democracy. I do think someone who, if given the chance would nationalize banks, utilities, and TV stations, institute single-payer healthcare, and seize the assets of families who are too rich while cranking up taxes on the rest of them, is someone who wants to blow things up. His vision of the US is a great deal different from the way it is now. Whether or not they're on his official platform, those are things he's espoused in the past. Mellowed with age? Maybe, or maybe just trying to be more electable.
