Hillary and Bernie quibble over the word PROGRESSIVE

Progressive capitalism ?
It would be much more instructive if Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders debated or disputed the meaning of SOCIALISM in our time. I like Bernie Sanders as a New Deal Democrat . He is not a " socialist " in the radical tradition of Eugene V. Debs. Hillary is more neo-liberal than " progressive ". She is also annoyingly hawkish even for a bourgeois feminist.
The test of a true socialist : " Do you question and challenge the moral legitimacy even " of LEGITIMATE wealth. ? "
Hollywood actor Leonardo DiCaprio will make this clear ( ? ) in his coming movie on Vladimir Lenin- the greatest revolutionary of all time. Even Putin fears the memory of the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution. ( The Russian working class might have a drunken, disorderly celebration . )
