His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

However, there are signs that support for the right could be wavering, as President Trump’s policies on trade and immigration are impacting livelihoods in the Central Valley; and some of the biggest progressives in the country are eyeing the region as a place that is ready for change.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Since Covered California went into effect more than ten years ago, millions of state residents have relied on the program to obtain healthcare, year after year. However, the trust that Californians have put into the program may start to fray, after a CalMatters investigation revealed that Covered California is sending people’s personal information to private companies.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kvpr.org/government-politics/2025-05-06/can-progressives-get-voters-in-a-ruby-red-central-valley-district-on-their-side\">Progressives Make Play for Bakersfield as Residents Demand Answers from Republican Lawmakers\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Central Valley turned out big for \u003ca href=\"https://abc30.com/post/what-could-behind-central-valleys-switch-joe-biden-donald-trump/15538888/\">Donald Trump\u003c/a> in 2024.

"content": "\u003cp>Bernie Sanders endorsed Joe Biden’s presidential campaign on Monday, encouraging his progressive supporters to rally behind the presumptive Democratic nominee in an urgent bid to defeat President Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am asking all Americans, I’m asking every Democrat, I’m asking every independent, I’m asking a lot of Republicans, to come together in this campaign to support your candidacy, which I endorse,” the Vermont senator said in a virtual event with Biden.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The backing came less than a week after Sanders ended his presidential campaign, which was centered around progressive policies such as universal health care. It’s a crucial development for Biden, who must bridge the Democratic Party’s entrenched ideological divides to put together a coalition that can beat Trump. Democratic disunity helped contribute to Hillary Clinton’s loss to Trump in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps eager to avoid a repeat of that bruising election year, Sanders offered his endorsement much earlier in the 2020 campaign. Sanders backed Clinton four years ago, but only after the end of a drawn-out nomination fight and a bitter dispute over the Democratic platform that extended to the summer convention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden and Sanders differed throughout the primary, particularly over whether a government-run system should replace private health insurance. Biden has resisted Sanders’ “Medicare for All” plan and has pushed instead a public option that would operate alongside private coverage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Appearing in a split screen with Biden, Sanders said there’s “no great secret out there that you and I have our differences.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Sanders said the greater priority for Democrats of all political persuasions should be defeating Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve got to make Trump a one-term president,” he added. “I will do all that I can to make that happen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The coronavirus prevented Biden and Sanders from appearing together in person on Monday. But they made clear they would continue working together, announcing the formation of six “task forces” made up of representatives from both campaigns to work on policy agreements addressing issues including the economy, education, criminal justice and immigration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden, 77, has already made some overtures to progressives by embracing aspects of Sanders’ and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s policies, like much of Sanders’ student debt forgiveness proposal and Warren’s bankruptcy plan. He also backed Warren’s bankruptcy plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"More related stories\" tag=\"election-2020\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders, 78, is sure to remain a force throughout the campaign. When he ended his candidacy last week, he said he would keep his name on the ballot in states that have not yet voted in order to collect more delegates that could be used to influence the party’s platform. He didn’t say Monday whether he would continue to fight for those delegates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Sanders and Biden emphasized their mutual respect for each other on Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders referred to the former vice president as “Joe.” Biden answered him repeatedly as “pal.” The two men asked the other to give regards to their wives, Jill Biden and Jane Sanders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden told Sanders: “I really need you, not just to win the campaign but to govern.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even with Sanders’ dozens of campaign stops for Clinton — a record he brought up repeatedly to push back at the idea that he was partly to blame for her defeat — Monday’s conversation was something voters never saw between the 2016 rivals. Whether that translates to how Sanders’ progressive base sees Biden is not yet clear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Indeed, Sanders will be a key ally for Biden not just in winning over skeptical progressives but also in appealing to young voters, a key Democratic voting bloc that has long supported Sanders over his former primary rivals by huge margins.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden and Sanders on Monday both emphasized the need to address the challenges confronting young people during the pandemic, with Sanders describing “a generation of young people who are experiencing crisis after crisis.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

It’s a crucial development for Biden, who must bridge the Democratic Party’s entrenched ideological divides to put together a coalition that can beat Trump. Democratic disunity helped contribute to Hillary Clinton’s loss to Trump in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps eager to avoid a repeat of that bruising election year, Sanders offered his endorsement much earlier in the 2020 campaign. Sanders backed Clinton four years ago, but only after the end of a drawn-out nomination fight and a bitter dispute over the Democratic platform that extended to the summer convention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden and Sanders differed throughout the primary, particularly over whether a government-run system should replace private health insurance. Biden has resisted Sanders’ “Medicare for All” plan and has pushed instead a public option that would operate alongside private coverage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In 2020, several other presidential candidates had co-sponsored Sanders' signature health care plan. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even candidates like Biden, who opposed Medicare for All, framed their own platforms around Sanders' proposals, promising a large government-run health insurance program as a central component of their plans. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Sanders was never able to replicate the coalition of young, progressive and often disaffected voters he put together in 2016. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Sanders is promising to campaign for Biden, it's an open question whether his devoted, progressive base will enthusiastically back a moderate who Sanders criticized in recent months for past votes for international trade deals and the 2003 Iraq War. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many people in Clinton's camp blamed hostility from Sanders supporters as a reason why she lost the general election to President Trump in 2016 — though that hostility was exacerbated by hacked and leaked Democratic National Committee emails showing that many party officials had a clear preference for Clinton over Sanders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Wednesday, Sanders directly addressed supporters who wanted to see him stay in the race: \"I understand that,\" Sanders said, but countered, \"I cannot in good conscience continue to mount a campaign that cannot win and which would interfere with the important work required of all of us in this difficult hour.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his \u003ca href=\"https://medium.com/@JoeBiden/statement-from-vice-president-biden-5de128a935ac\">statement\u003c/a>, Biden said Sanders \"has put his heart and soul into not only running for President, but for the causes and issues he has been dedicated to his whole life.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He added that \"Sanders and his supporters have changed the dialogue in America.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2020 NPR.

But it’s not a new one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Depression-era 1934, Upton Sinclair, the muckraking author of “The Jungle,” ran seeking the Democratic nomination for governor and won it decisively, racking up more than 50% of the vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Sanders, Sinclair was a long-time self-described socialist — though without the “Democratic” suffix that the Vermont senator favors today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11805394\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/ca-socialists-photo-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1371\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11805394\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/ca-socialists-photo-2.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/ca-socialists-photo-2-160x114.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/ca-socialists-photo-2-800x571.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/ca-socialists-photo-2-1020x728.jpg 1020w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Glass negative of a young Upton Sinclair. \u003ccite>(Bain News Service/U.S. Library of Congress)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>And like Sanders, Sinclair led a grassroots political movement that existed outside the formal Democratic Party structure, seeking to usher young radicals into the party and radical policies into the mainstream. He, too, drew skepticism and disdain from the “establishment” of his time. Even President Franklin Roosevelt refused to endorse him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sinclair went onto lose the general election for governor in a three-way race, after a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kcet.org/shows/lost-la/the-socialist-who-won-a-democratic-primary-and-the-dirty-hollywood-politics-that-sunk#_ftn3\">concerted opposition campaign\u003c/a> from the right that equated his policies with Communism. But historians say his campaign offered a strong, leftward shove to both California Democratic politics and the national policy agenda of FDR’s New Deal. Stanley Mosk, who cast his first vote for Sinclair and would go on to become associate justice of the California Supreme Court, \u003ca href=\"https://books.google.com/books?id=G7kWXsKpJTEC&pg=PA26&lpg=PA26&dq=%E2%80%9Cthe+acorn+from+which+evolved+the+tree+of+whatever+liberalism+we+have+in+California.%E2%80%9D&source=bl&ots=fjyVlwNkbi&sig=ACfU3U00ZKdeO5eBzDx7dNXi7c1jZF0V7g&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjQ4fboy__nAhVPo54KHXsuDZQQ6AEwA3oECAwQAQ#v=onepage&q=%E2%80%9Cthe%20acorn%20from%20which%20evolved%20the%20tree%20of%20whatever%20liberalism%20we%20have%20in%20California.%E2%80%9D&f=false\">recalled Sinclair’s campaign\u003c/a> as “the acorn from which evolved the tree of whatever liberalism we have in California.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as the Cold War set in, the “s”-word became an epithet and an electoral nonstarter in mainstream California politics. There were exceptions — such as the 1970 election of Berkeley Rep. Ronald Dellums, the first Democratic Socialist sent to Congress in the post-WWII era — but they proved the rule.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11805397\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 429px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/ca-socialists-cartoon-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"429\" height=\"554\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11805397\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/ca-socialists-cartoon-2.jpg 429w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/ca-socialists-cartoon-2-160x207.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 429px) 100vw, 429px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A political cartoon from the 1930s. \u003ccite>(Image via University of Washington Civil Rights and Labor History Consortium)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Then Sanders turned in a surprise showing in his 2016 bid for president, winning 46% of the California primary vote to Hillary Clinton’s 53%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now he is forecasted to ultimately win the 2020 California Democratic primary, although the counting may take days if not weeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So would a Sanders victory suggest that the socialist label might be ready for a comeback here? Maybe. Note that San Francisco recently elected Chesa Boudin, the son of the leftist militants, as its district attorney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As moderate former Vice President Joe Biden turned in a strong showing in several of the Super Tuesday states where results rolled in early, the final pre-election California polls indicated that Sanders \u003ca href=\"https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2020-primary-forecast/california/\">was winning with a third of the vote here\u003c/a> — and \u003ca href=\"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/5pn3k5pb\">showing particular strength with young voters and Latinos while leading in every region statewide\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FiveThirtyEight model gave him a \u003ca href=\"https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2020-primary-forecast/california/\">76% chance of winning the popular vote\u003c/a> in the state. And preliminary exit polls by Edison Research indicating that Californians voting Democratic in 2020 are more liberal than in previous years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What that also means: Two-thirds of voters in the California Democratic primary expected to vote for candidates \u003cem>not\u003c/em> named Bernie Sanders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What does socialism mean here now?” said Lawrence Rosenthal, chair of the Center for Right-Wing Studies at UC Berkeley. “Does it carry the boogeyman qualities it had before the (Berlin) Wall fell, which was considerable? Whether it still has electoral legs in California or anywhere else is a really good question.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And if there’s any question that the voters who rallied to the Vermont senator in California somehow neglected to notice the “Democratic Socialist” label he’s been proudly boasting for years, consider a \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbsnews.com/news/super-tuesday-poll-2020-sanders-biden-california-texas-delegates-battleground-tracker/\">recent CBS poll\u003c/a>. Taken the week before Election Day, the survey found that 57% of likely Democratic primary voters in the state had either a “very positive” or “somewhat positive” view of socialism, compared to only 45% who felt the same about capitalism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though pollsters don’t regularly ask about “socialism,” that appears consistent with views among Democratic voters nationwide. A \u003ca href=\"https://news.gallup.com/poll/240725/democrats-positive-socialism-capitalism.aspx\">Gallup national survey\u003c/a> from 2018 found a nearly identical breakdown, with 57% holding favorable views of socialism and 47% backing capitalism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That was driven by the responses of market-skeptical young respondents. It was also unique to self-described Democrats. On the whole, only 37% of the 1,505 adults surveyed reported feeling positive about socialism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That may be remarkable for the post-Cold War era, but compared to the 1934 race for governor, the 2020 presidential primary in California looks awfully familiar, said Greg Mitchell, author of “The Campaign of the Century: Upton Sinclair’s Race for Governor of California and the Birth of Media Politics.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prior to running, Sinclair changed his party affiliation from registered Socialist to Democrat in order to run in the primary, said Mitchell. Under party pressure, \u003ca href=\"https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2019/03/05/sen-bernie-sanders-signs-pledge-declaring-democrat-2020/3074461002/\">Sanders did the same\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And like the Vermont senator, Sinclair’s electoral ambitions were undergirded by a political movement, called the “End Poverty in California” campaign, that existed independent of the party establishment and billed itself as EPIC.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They formed thousands of grassroots clubs across the state,” said Mitchell, who called it “the greatest mass movement in the state’s history.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the party establishment balked. “Though desperate to fend off ‘the socialist carpetbagger,’ ” \u003ca href=\"https://depts.washington.edu/epic34/campaign.shtml\">wrote University of Washington historian James Gregory\u003c/a>, “the party’s bitterly antagonistic factions could not unite around an alternative candidate for the upcoming primary election.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Election 2020\" tag=\"election-2020\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sinclair ended up losing the gubernatorial election to Republican Frank Merriam.

The next decade, the United States entered World War II and, following that, the Cold War. That, along with the massive increase in military-related spending and employment in California that came along with it, made the state fertile ground for a new generation of conservative leaders running on anti-communist political rhetoric. In Orange County, Richard Nixon ascended the electoral ladder, from congressman to U.S. senator, by \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1994-04-27-ss-51093-story.html\">repeatedly accusing his Democratic opponents\u003c/a> of being “pink.” In Hollywood, an actor named Ronald Reagan launched the beginnings of his career in conservative politics by testifying against alleged communist sympathizers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course “socialism” and “capitalism” are squishy words.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When conservatives and conservative media warn of the peril of socialism, they \u003ca href=\"https://www.foxnews.com/media/venezuelan-refugee-hugo-chavez-bernie-sanders\">often point to Venezuela\u003c/a>, which has suffered prolonged economic and political turmoil under Nicolás Maduro’s United Socialist Party.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Sanders and his supporters speak of the virtues of “Democratic Socialism” (with an emphasis on “democratic”), they offer up a very different set of touchstones: Franklin Roosevelt, Martin Luther King Jr. and the expansive safety nets enjoyed in otherwise fairly market-oriented economies like Denmark and Sweden.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And though Sanders may inveigh against “the billionaire class,” you would not see The New York Times refer to him as leading a movement “against the profit system,” a \u003ca href=\"https://books.google.com/books?id=UFLmoiIvbuwC&pg=PA94&lpg=PA94&dq=the+first+serious+movement+against+the+profit+system+in+the+United+States&source=bl&ots=H5arg7hV-g&sig=ACfU3U3Y8jEKFxYjwzLrcU4JuqVMHFCnCA&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjgr4G6vP_nAhWOlp4KHa4-Ay0Q6AEwAHoECAcQAQ#v=onepage&q=the%20first%20serious%20movement%20against%20the%20profit%20system%20in%20the%20United%20States&f=false\">description it applied to Sinclair\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders himself has defined his ideology as one that mimics countries with “\u003ca href=\"https://www.vox.com/2020/2/24/21149460/bernie-sanders-2020-democratic-primary-socialist-socialism\">successful records\u003c/a> in fighting and implementing programs for the middle class and working families” and completes “the \u003ca href=\"https://www.newyorker.com/news/dispatch/the-many-tangled-american-definitions-of-socialism\">unfinished business\u003c/a> of the New Deal.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He might just as easily point to the \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/explainers/democratic-presidential-candidates-to-make-us-like-california/\">recent politics of California\u003c/a>, said Bill Whalen, a fellow at Stanford’s Hoover Institution and a former speechwriter for Gov.

Newsom ran for office in 2018 on a promise to introduce a Medicare for All-like health insurance program and a universal early child care program. Sanders supports both.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we call Democratic Socialism is not that different from what Newsom wants,” said Whalen. That could be taken as an indication of just far left California Democrats have shifted — or just how imprecise the term “socialism” really is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of this comes down to packaging,” Whalen said. “In California, you hear about many of the same policy ideas described with the term ‘progressive.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While that bit of rebranding might help win over older voters whose political compasses were set during the Cold War, younger voters — a disproportionate number of whom have no recollection of the Iron Curtain — aren’t as likely to find the term off-putting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those are also voters who have spent much of their lives hearing conservatives fix Democratic policies of all kinds as “socialist,” said UC Berkeley’s Rosenthall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you follow something like the Tea Party throughout the Obama years,” he said, “equating Obama, who was rather modest in his liberalism, with socialism and communism was a kind of taken for granted point of view.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That, said Rosenthall, may have taken the sting out of what was once a damning characterization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ironically, it was Pete Buttigieg, the former presidential candidate who later firmly positioned himself as a centrist alternative to Sanders, who most \u003ca href=\"https://www.axios.com/pete-buttigieg-republicans-crazy-socialists-democratic-debate-571f1353-adcd-4e3d-bd03-70450bb14ad1.html\">clearly articulated that view\u003c/a> in one of the early televised debates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

But it’s not a new one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Depression-era 1934, Upton Sinclair, the muckraking author of “The Jungle,” ran seeking the Democratic nomination for governor and won it decisively, racking up more than 50% of the vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Sanders, Sinclair was a long-time self-described socialist — though without the “Democratic” suffix that the Vermont senator favors today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11805394\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/ca-socialists-photo-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1371\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11805394\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/ca-socialists-photo-2.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/ca-socialists-photo-2-160x114.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/ca-socialists-photo-2-800x571.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/ca-socialists-photo-2-1020x728.jpg 1020w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Glass negative of a young Upton Sinclair. \u003ccite>(Bain News Service/U.S. Library of Congress)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>And like Sanders, Sinclair led a grassroots political movement that existed outside the formal Democratic Party structure, seeking to usher young radicals into the party and radical policies into the mainstream. He, too, drew skepticism and disdain from the “establishment” of his time. Even President Franklin Roosevelt refused to endorse him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sinclair went onto lose the general election for governor in a three-way race, after a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kcet.org/shows/lost-la/the-socialist-who-won-a-democratic-primary-and-the-dirty-hollywood-politics-that-sunk#_ftn3\">concerted opposition campaign\u003c/a> from the right that equated his policies with Communism. But historians say his campaign offered a strong, leftward shove to both California Democratic politics and the national policy agenda of FDR’s New Deal. Stanley Mosk, who cast his first vote for Sinclair and would go on to become associate justice of the California Supreme Court, \u003ca href=\"https://books.google.com/books?id=G7kWXsKpJTEC&pg=PA26&lpg=PA26&dq=%E2%80%9Cthe+acorn+from+which+evolved+the+tree+of+whatever+liberalism+we+have+in+California.%E2%80%9D&source=bl&ots=fjyVlwNkbi&sig=ACfU3U00ZKdeO5eBzDx7dNXi7c1jZF0V7g&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjQ4fboy__nAhVPo54KHXsuDZQQ6AEwA3oECAwQAQ#v=onepage&q=%E2%80%9Cthe%20acorn%20from%20which%20evolved%20the%20tree%20of%20whatever%20liberalism%20we%20have%20in%20California.%E2%80%9D&f=false\">recalled Sinclair’s campaign\u003c/a> as “the acorn from which evolved the tree of whatever liberalism we have in California.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as the Cold War set in, the “s”-word became an epithet and an electoral nonstarter in mainstream California politics. There were exceptions — such as the 1970 election of Berkeley Rep. Ronald Dellums, the first Democratic Socialist sent to Congress in the post-WWII era — but they proved the rule.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11805397\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 429px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/ca-socialists-cartoon-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"429\" height=\"554\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11805397\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/ca-socialists-cartoon-2.jpg 429w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/ca-socialists-cartoon-2-160x207.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 429px) 100vw, 429px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A political cartoon from the 1930s. \u003ccite>(Image via University of Washington Civil Rights and Labor History Consortium)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Then Sanders turned in a surprise showing in his 2016 bid for president, winning 46% of the California primary vote to Hillary Clinton’s 53%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now he is forecasted to ultimately win the 2020 California Democratic primary, although the counting may take days if not weeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So would a Sanders victory suggest that the socialist label might be ready for a comeback here? Maybe. Note that San Francisco recently elected Chesa Boudin, the son of the leftist militants, as its district attorney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As moderate former Vice President Joe Biden turned in a strong showing in several of the Super Tuesday states where results rolled in early, the final pre-election California polls indicated that Sanders \u003ca href=\"https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2020-primary-forecast/california/\">was winning with a third of the vote here\u003c/a> — and \u003ca href=\"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/5pn3k5pb\">showing particular strength with young voters and Latinos while leading in every region statewide\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FiveThirtyEight model gave him a \u003ca href=\"https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2020-primary-forecast/california/\">76% chance of winning the popular vote\u003c/a> in the state. And preliminary exit polls by Edison Research indicating that Californians voting Democratic in 2020 are more liberal than in previous years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What that also means: Two-thirds of voters in the California Democratic primary expected to vote for candidates \u003cem>not\u003c/em> named Bernie Sanders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What does socialism mean here now?” said Lawrence Rosenthal, chair of the Center for Right-Wing Studies at UC Berkeley. “Does it carry the boogeyman qualities it had before the (Berlin) Wall fell, which was considerable? Whether it still has electoral legs in California or anywhere else is a really good question.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And if there’s any question that the voters who rallied to the Vermont senator in California somehow neglected to notice the “Democratic Socialist” label he’s been proudly boasting for years, consider a \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbsnews.com/news/super-tuesday-poll-2020-sanders-biden-california-texas-delegates-battleground-tracker/\">recent CBS poll\u003c/a>. Taken the week before Election Day, the survey found that 57% of likely Democratic primary voters in the state had either a “very positive” or “somewhat positive” view of socialism, compared to only 45% who felt the same about capitalism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though pollsters don’t regularly ask about “socialism,” that appears consistent with views among Democratic voters nationwide. A \u003ca href=\"https://news.gallup.com/poll/240725/democrats-positive-socialism-capitalism.aspx\">Gallup national survey\u003c/a> from 2018 found a nearly identical breakdown, with 57% holding favorable views of socialism and 47% backing capitalism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That was driven by the responses of market-skeptical young respondents. It was also unique to self-described Democrats. On the whole, only 37% of the 1,505 adults surveyed reported feeling positive about socialism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In Orange County, Richard Nixon ascended the electoral ladder, from congressman to U.S. senator, by \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1994-04-27-ss-51093-story.html\">repeatedly accusing his Democratic opponents\u003c/a> of being “pink.” In Hollywood, an actor named Ronald Reagan launched the beginnings of his career in conservative politics by testifying against alleged communist sympathizers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course “socialism” and “capitalism” are squishy words.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When conservatives and conservative media warn of the peril of socialism, they \u003ca href=\"https://www.foxnews.com/media/venezuelan-refugee-hugo-chavez-bernie-sanders\">often point to Venezuela\u003c/a>, which has suffered prolonged economic and political turmoil under Nicolás Maduro’s United Socialist Party.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Sanders and his supporters speak of the virtues of “Democratic Socialism” (with an emphasis on “democratic”), they offer up a very different set of touchstones: Franklin Roosevelt, Martin Luther King Jr. and the expansive safety nets enjoyed in otherwise fairly market-oriented economies like Denmark and Sweden.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And though Sanders may inveigh against “the billionaire class,” you would not see The New York Times refer to him as leading a movement “against the profit system,” a \u003ca href=\"https://books.google.com/books?id=UFLmoiIvbuwC&pg=PA94&lpg=PA94&dq=the+first+serious+movement+against+the+profit+system+in+the+United+States&source=bl&ots=H5arg7hV-g&sig=ACfU3U3Y8jEKFxYjwzLrcU4JuqVMHFCnCA&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjgr4G6vP_nAhWOlp4KHa4-Ay0Q6AEwAHoECAcQAQ#v=onepage&q=the%20first%20serious%20movement%20against%20the%20profit%20system%20in%20the%20United%20States&f=false\">description it applied to Sinclair\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders himself has defined his ideology as one that mimics countries with “\u003ca href=\"https://www.vox.com/2020/2/24/21149460/bernie-sanders-2020-democratic-primary-socialist-socialism\">successful records\u003c/a> in fighting and implementing programs for the middle class and working families” and completes “the \u003ca href=\"https://www.newyorker.com/news/dispatch/the-many-tangled-american-definitions-of-socialism\">unfinished business\u003c/a> of the New Deal.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He might just as easily point to the \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/explainers/democratic-presidential-candidates-to-make-us-like-california/\">recent politics of California\u003c/a>, said Bill Whalen, a fellow at Stanford’s Hoover Institution and a former speechwriter for Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“How different is the Bernie agenda from the agenda of Democrats in Sacramento?” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gov. Newsom ran for office in 2018 on a promise to introduce a Medicare for All-like health insurance program and a universal early child care program. Sanders supports both.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we call Democratic Socialism is not that different from what Newsom wants,” said Whalen. That could be taken as an indication of just far left California Democrats have shifted — or just how imprecise the term “socialism” really is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of this comes down to packaging,” Whalen said. “In California, you hear about many of the same policy ideas described with the term ‘progressive.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While that bit of rebranding might help win over older voters whose political compasses were set during the Cold War, younger voters — a disproportionate number of whom have no recollection of the Iron Curtain — aren’t as likely to find the term off-putting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those are also voters who have spent much of their lives hearing conservatives fix Democratic policies of all kinds as “socialist,” said UC Berkeley’s Rosenthall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you follow something like the Tea Party throughout the Obama years,” he said, “equating Obama, who was rather modest in his liberalism, with socialism and communism was a kind of taken for granted point of view.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That, said Rosenthall, may have taken the sting out of what was once a damning characterization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ironically, it was Pete Buttigieg, the former presidential candidate who later firmly positioned himself as a centrist alternative to Sanders, who most \u003ca href=\"https://www.axios.com/pete-buttigieg-republicans-crazy-socialists-democratic-debate-571f1353-adcd-4e3d-bd03-70450bb14ad1.html\">clearly articulated that view\u003c/a> in one of the early televised debates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
