His past aside? His past is incredibly relevant, lol. He's an Independent seeking the Democratic nomination, he has no loyalty to the party besides his own ideology. Which is fine, but it hurts Democrats downballot (and in races that are competitive: see Wisconsin Supreme Court Election). I think I would be more prone to agreeing with your sentiment had Bernie spent years and years working to elect fellow Democrats and Progressives, not those who are just equally ideologically pure like he is.
At least he has loyalty to something other than money and power.
Yeah, like most of the Democrats that are running. 
Exactly: 

Yes, etc., etc.

HEM has the right of this. If political parties are not cohesive and self-propelling on the matter of politics, they are not political parties.

Societies/clubs would be a better way to describe what our parties are right now. Politically recent parties have been a horrendous waste of time and energy with no positive impact.

In this kind of campaign environment we are overshadowed by the past accomplishments and name recognition of our opponents. Really?

Really? I think he's correct to a point but he's greatly underselling the ability of proactive and impressive newcomers to really go places in Europeia in a short while - be it President, Cabinet, what have you. And downplaying how discerning most of our informed voting populace is when it comes to comparing past to current players.

Really? I would say that is a somewhat valid statement but it's overwritten by their own lack of experience. That isn't to say that I don't think Kaboom could be a great president or GraV a great VP, one day, but I don't think that they're ready for the responsibility now. I hope to see both of them become more heavily involved in other facets of the government and make a second attempt in another term once they've gained more experience in areas they're currently lacking.
EDIT: Apparently me and Lethen are mind brothers. >>;

From the EPP's platfourm (sic):
- Quote:
-
We here at the EPP believe in a new kind of "issue" oriented political party. This new kind of party will select certin issues that we believe to be essential to the betterment of the region and then press cannidates to include plans to fix said issue. This new type of party will help bring focus onto important problems that are largely ignored or simply given lip service.
All quiet on the issue front.
