Bernie did not support getting rid of the ACA BEFORE Medicare for All was passed.

112. Because it's not viable. Same reason it didn't pass in Vermont.

Bernie Sanders Single Payer Health Care Plan Fails in Vermont.

"But the single-payer system that Sanders is evangelizing isn’t just a figment of progressive utopian fantasies. Single-payer health care has already been tried—and failed—in Sanders’s home state of Vermont, where the proposal collapsed under its own weight last year before it was ever implemented.


Deciding why it failed in Vermont is key to whether you buy into the candidate’s promise to extend the program nationwide."


Just because it didn't pass in Vermont doesn't mean Bernie is against it. Just because Hillary sees it's not viable nationwide does not mean she's against it. It means it's a waste of time to pursue, so spend time pursuing something realistic.

This is not a difficult concept. It's amazing how just plain common sense and reality is distorted and rejected if it doesn't favor Sanders.

And so much for Bernie's "revolution". He calls on hordes of people to call their representatives to get policy passed, and he couldn't even get a governor of a teeny tiny state to pass it.
