I have to guess that she is talking about his tenure as the Mayor of Burlington, VT. Burlington is the state's largest city. After being dismissed as unelectable, Sanders campaigned on foot visiting local residents and businesses, explaining his vision for improving the lot of city residents, and asking for their support. Campaigning as an independent, he defeated six-term Democratic Party incumbent Gordon Paquette by just 10 votes in a four-way contest. Voters re-elected Sanders three times by increasingly wider margins: 52 percent in 1983, 55 percent in 1985 and 56 percent in 1987.Bernie Sanders in his mayoral office a few days after first winning election.He worked tirelessly to improve an abandoned railyard on the city's lake Champlain shore. A developer had targeted it and a 336 unit Federally subsidized Northgate Housing complex for low income families into upscale condos and mall space through a loophole in the federal grant that let them modify the contract after 20 years. Sanders went ballistic when he heard of the plans, and pushed through a series of ordinances that stymied the developers. Instead, the families ended up purchasing their units and retaining their affordable rent. The waterfront project became a centerpiece of city life.Since moving to serve 6 terms as the at large congressman for Vermont and moving to the Senate in 2007, he has won reelection by increasing margins. In 2012, he garnered 71% of the vote, including a large share of Republican votes. So I don't know what your teacher dislikes about him. Clearly, an amazing majority of Vermont voters think very highly of Bernie. Perhaps you should just ask her what wrongs she thinks he's guilty of.

Did you know Bernie Sanders is on tape saying he got a lot of his ideas from visiting the communist Soviet Union.No, I didn’t.And neither do you, because it is a lie.I can understand why you didn’t post a link to an article, because then people would know what a misleading question this is.Bernie's mystery Soviet tapes revealedIn 1988, Bernie Sanders was the mayor of Burlington, Vermont. He traveled to the Soviet Union to establish a sister-city program with the Russian city of Yaroslavl.It was the the height of Glasnost and Perestroika and American’s were trying to establish relations and dialogue with Russians.Do you know who else was doing the same thing, at the same time?Reagan in USSRBernie Sanders NEVER said he got any of his ideas from the Soviets. However, he is on tape in a Russian sauna singing the American folk classic, “This Land is Your Land.”Before traveling to the USSR, Mayor Sanders said, "By encouraging citizen-to-citizen exchanges — of young people, artists and musicians, business people, public officials, and just plain ordinary citizens, we can break down the barriers and stereotypes which exist between the Soviet Union and the United States.”By the way, the sister-city program not only fosters better understanding between people of different cultures, but also encourages expanded business relationships, a very capitalist thing to do.Since Sanders’ trip, exchanges between Burlington and Yaroslavl have continued, involving subsequent mayors, business people, firefighters, jazz musicians, youth orchestras, mural painters, high school students, medical students, nurses, librarians, and the Yaroslavl Torpedoes ice hockey team.Bernie Sanders’ ideas must be pretty threatening to some people, if they have to resort to lying about them.

Will the second Sussex baby receive a title or be treated the same as Archie who doesn't have one?Baby Sussex 2.0 will be treated the same as big brother Archie, but that doesn’t mean they won’t have titles.As the children of a duke,[1][1][1][1] and as the great-grandchild of the Sovereign not otherwise entitled to the style of Royal Highness or the titular dignity of Prince or Princess,[2][2][2][2] Harry and Meghan’s children are doubly entitled to the styles enjoyed by the children of a duke.In future, if and when Prince Charles ascends the throne, the children will become the grandchildren of the Sovereign and will then be entitled to the style of ‘Royal Highness’ and the titular dignity of Prince or Princess prefixed to their given names under the provisions of the 1917 Letters Patent.[3][3][3][3]It is also quite possible not to use titles at all, which has a couple of precedents in the Royal Family and which is currently the preference of Harry and Meghan with regard to their children.X Mountbatten-Windsor, Earl of DumbartonThe eldest son of a peer of the rank Duke, Marquess or Earl may use one of his father’s subsidiary titles that are at least one grade below the highest ranking title used by the father.In this instance, Harry is Duke of Sussex, Earl of Dumbarton and Baron Kilkeel, and so his eldest son may use Earl of Dumbarton as a courtesy.Archie is his eldest son, and so may be called;Archie Mountbatten-Windsor, Earl of DumbartonArchie, Earl of DumbartonEarl of DumbartonLord DumbartonDumbartonMy LordSirThis is not the same as holding a title in his own right.Archie, Earl of Dumbarton:is a commoner and cannot stand for election in the House of Lords,[4][5]has no privileges of the peerage – such as the right to be tried in front of a jury comprised of Peers of the Realm (revoked), freedom from arrest in civil cases (redundant), and access to the Sovereign to advise him or her on matters of state (no practical application),[6]may not use the style “The Right Honourable” which would be used by an Earl who held the title in his own right (this is also the style of a Viscount, Baron, or Privy Councillor, as I’m sure someone will otherwise point to in the comments. Peers who are also Privy Councillors use “PC” after their titles to differentiate.)[7]may not be called “The Earl of Dumbarton”, as the “The” at the start denotes an Earl who holds the title in his own right,[8]does not rank among the Earls of the United Kingdom in the order of precedence, but rather as the eldest son of a duke (or in this case, as the eldest son of a Royal Duke, which is a higher position than an earl anyway),[9] andIs not legally Earl of Dumbarton.[10] Legal documents sometimes make this distinction by identifying courtesy peers as ‘Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, commonly called Archie, Earl of Dumbarton’.One might therefore consider a courtesy title as borrowed, in the same way that other property might be used by the son while still being legally owned by the father.The wife of the eldest son uses his title in the feminine mirror, becoming ‘Countess of Dumbarton’.The Lady X Mountbatten-WindsorThe daughters of a Duke, Marquess or Earl may prefix their given names with Lady as a courtesy.[11][11][11][11]If the Sussexes’ second child is a daughter called ‘Susan’, she would be entitled to be called:The Lady Susan Mountbatten-WindsorLady SusanMy LadyA daughter who marries a peer or a royal will use her husband’s title in the feminine mirror, but otherwise continues to use ‘The Lady X’ with her husband’s surname when she marries. Her husband gains no new titles through the marriage.The Lord X Mountbatten-WindsorThe younger sons of a Duke or Marquess (but not an Earl) may prefix their given names with the courtesy title of Lord.[12][12][12][12]If the Sussexes’ second child is a son called ‘John’, he would be entitled to be called:The Lord John Mountbatten-WindsorThe Lord JohnLord JohnMy LordThe wife of a younger son uses his title in the feminine mirror, becoming ‘The Lady John Mountbatten-Windsor’.Princely titlesThe style of ‘Royal Highness’ with the princely dignity of ‘Prince’ or ‘Princess’ prefixed to the given name is an privilege restricted to the following:The children of the Sovereign[13]The Prince Charles, The Princess Anne, The Prince Andrew and The Prince EdwardThe children of the sons of any such Sovereign[14]Prince Richard, Prince Edward and Prince Michael of KentPrince William, Prince Harry, Princess Beatrice, Princess Eugenie, Lady Louise and Viscount SevernThe children of the eldest son of the Prince of Wales[15]Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince LouisOnce Charles becomes King, his own grandchildren will move into the position of ‘children of the sons of the Sovereign’, which means that William and Harry’s children will become eligible under that clause.At present, William’s children are already eligible under the third clause, so it won’t make a material difference to how they are styled, but Harry’s children are not currently princes and princesses, so will be only able to use those styles once their grandfather is King.Not using titlesIt is becoming more common for people not to use the traditional titles they are entitled to for a variety of reasons.For example, the heir of The Duke of Devonshire is traditionally called ‘Marquess of Hartington’, but the present heir, William Cavendish, has chosen to continue under the title ‘Earl of Burlington’, a name which he has established a career, and which is ordinarily used by the eldest son of the eldest son (i.e. grandson) of the Duke of Devonshire.[16][16][16][16]Some peers also disclaim their peerages, preferring to continue as commoners and therefore as politicians in the House of Commons. For example, the politician Tony Benn campaigned to be allowed to disclaim his peerage as The Viscount Stansgate so that he could represent Bristol South East as an MP.[17][17][17][17]Royals also eschew titles for a variety of reasons, with for example Princess Beatrice “Beatrice York” in her job as a VP at Afiniti,[18][18][18][18] Princess Eugenie uses “Eugenie York” in her job as a Director at Hauser & Wirth,[19][19][19][19] and The Duchess of Kent went by “Katharine Kent” or “Mrs Kent” in her job as a teacher.[20][20][20][20]At school and during military service, many of the royals take a similar approach with their titles, as Elizabeth Windsor, Philip Mountbatten, William Wales, Harry Wales, George Cambridge, and Charlotte Cambridge.[21][21][21][21]While the royals noted above simply didn’t use their titles, in the same way that Harry and Meghan are not currently using ‘HRH’, others have taken more unusual steps to get rid of their royal titles more permanently.For example, Lady Patricia Ramsay was born HRH Princess Patricia of Connaught, and requested that her title as Princess of the United Kingdom be formally relinquished on the occasion of her marriage to Alexander Ramsay, making their relationship a little more equal and avoiding the cumbersome and not-yet-invented style of ‘HRH Princess Patricia, The Hon. Mrs Ramsay’.[22][22][22][22]It is also rumoured that Princess Anne and her first husband, Mark Phillips, turned down a peerage, resulting in her children being titled as ordinary Master Peter and Miss Zara. Peter and Zara have had relatively ordinary lives as a result, especially considering that they are The Queen’s eldest grandchildren.Prince Edward later followed a similar path with the titles for his children. On the occasion of his marriage to Sophie Rhys-Jones, a public notice alluded to the intention that the future children of The Earl and Countess were to be styled as the children of an Earl.[23][23][23][23]More recently, The Countess of Wessex has been quoted as saying that Lady Louise and Viscount Severn will have the right to assume the style of Royal Highness and the titular dignities of ‘Prince’ or ‘Princess’ when they turn 18, however she does not believe that they will choose to do so.[24][24][24][24]Baby Sussex 2.0It is likely that titles will continued to be ignored when naming Harry and Meghan’s children, as is evident in the very deliberately announced Archie’s name as ‘Master Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor’.It would make very little sense to eschew titles for their eldest son in the hopes he can grow up out of the spotlight, only to then give titles and encourage a spotlight on their younger child.As such, I would expect the baby to be called either Master or Miss X Mountbatten-Windsor for the foreseeable future. If they do become Prince or Princess, then both Archie and his little sibling will assume those titles together when the time comes.Footnotes[1] Courtesy Titles[1] Courtesy Titles[1] Courtesy Titles[1] Courtesy Titles[2] Royal Styles and Titles of Great Britain: Documents[2] Royal Styles and Titles of Great Britain: Documents[2] Royal Styles and Titles of Great Britain: Documents[2] Royal Styles and Titles of Great Britain: Documents[3] Royal Styles and Titles of Great Britain: Documents[3] Royal Styles and Titles of Great Britain: Documents[3] Royal Styles and Titles of Great Britain: Documents[3] Royal Styles and Titles of Great Britain: Documents[4] Yes, Prince Harry is a commoner, according to Common Law.[5] A Glossary of European Noble, Princely, Royal and Imperial Titles[6] Privilege of peerage - Wikipedia[7] The Right Honourable - Wikipedia[8] Forms of address in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia[9] Order of precedence in England and Wales - Wikipedia[10] Courtesy Titles - Debrett's[11] Forms of address in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia[11] Forms of address in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia[11] Forms of address in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia[11] Forms of address in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia[12] Forms of address in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia[12] Forms of address in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia[12] Forms of address in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia[12] Forms of address in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia[13] Royal Styles and Titles of Great Britain: Documents[14] Royal Styles and Titles of Great Britain: Documents[15] Royal Styles and Titles of Great Britain: Documents[16] William Cavendish, Earl of Burlington - Wikipedia[16] William Cavendish, Earl of Burlington - Wikipedia[16] William Cavendish, Earl of Burlington - Wikipedia[16] William Cavendish, Earl of Burlington - Wikipedia[17] Tony Benn - Wikipedia[17] Tony Benn - Wikipedia[17] Tony Benn - Wikipedia[17] Tony Benn - Wikipedia[18] A conversation between Roni Horn and Eugenie York[18] A conversation between Roni Horn and Eugenie York[18] A conversation between Roni Horn and Eugenie York[18] A conversation between Roni Horn and Eugenie York[19] Beatrice York | Team | Afiniti[19] Beatrice York | Team | Afiniti[19] Beatrice York | Team | Afiniti[19] Beatrice York | Team | Afiniti[20] The Duchess of Kent’s secret double life revealed[20] The Duchess of Kent’s secret double life revealed[20] The Duchess of Kent’s secret double life revealed[20] The Duchess of Kent’s secret double life revealed[21] 8 royals who rejected their titles, and the surprising reasons why[21] 8 royals who rejected their titles, and the surprising reasons why[21] 8 royals who rejected their titles, and the surprising reasons why[21] 8 royals who rejected their titles, and the surprising reasons why[22] Princess Patricia of Connaught - Wikipedia[22] Princess Patricia of Connaught - Wikipedia[22] Princess Patricia of Connaught - Wikipedia[22] Princess Patricia of Connaught - Wikipedia[23] TITLE OF HRH THE PRINCE EDWARD[23] TITLE OF HRH THE PRINCE EDWARD[23] TITLE OF HRH THE PRINCE EDWARD[23] TITLE OF HRH THE PRINCE EDWARD[24] Queen Elizabeth's Grandchildren Will 'Work for a Living' and Won't Use HRH, Says Mom Sophie Wessex[24] Queen Elizabeth's Grandchildren Will 'Work for a Living' and Won't Use HRH, Says Mom Sophie Wessex[24] Queen Elizabeth's Grandchildren Will 'Work for a Living' and Won't Use HRH, Says Mom Sophie Wessex[24] Queen Elizabeth's Grandchildren Will 'Work for a Living' and Won't Use HRH, Says Mom Sophie Wessex
