Bernie Sanders or My Jewish Grandfather: A Quote Quiz

  C.A. Pinkham /   March 22, 2016 /   Endings, Featured /   1 Comment

Throughout this entire primary season, one inescapable fact has kept me awake at nights, gnawing at the very fabric of my understanding of politics: Bernie Sanders basically IS my Jewish grandfather.

The similarities are more than few. Both were born and raised in Brooklyn (Bernie in Midwood, my grandfather in Bedford-Stuyvesant). Both were/are the children and grandchildren of Polish Jewish immigrants (and in my grandfather’s case, married an actual Polish Jewish immigrant). Both were/are liberal as hell (although my grandfather rarely ever talked about politics unless someone else brought it up first). Both seemed/seem like they should be vociferously (and with a disconcertingly weird amount of anger) shouting about the joys of nova lox.

With that in mind, here’s a quote quiz. Who said it: Bernie Sanders, or my Jewish grandfather?

"The American dream has become a nightmare."
Correct! Wrong!
"I was at Attu and Kiska. It was very cold."
Correct! Wrong!
"Diners are the best restaurants, because you can get whatever you want!"
Correct! Wrong!
"Washington is dominated by big money."
Correct! Wrong!
"I've never understood the desire not to let gay people have the same rights as everybody else."
Correct! Wrong!
"Wall Street is greedy, reckless and they operate illegally. That's fine. But what do you do?"
Correct! Wrong!
"Ronald Reagan was almost as bad an actor as he was a President."
Correct! Wrong!
"I'm pretty good on the grill."
Correct! Wrong!
"If it's too expensive to care for veterans, don't send them to war."
Correct! Wrong!
"I may not live there any more, but I still love New York."
Correct! Wrong!
