When you have half of the American candidates denying climate-change or evolution, you get excited when you see a political leader who evidently has taken the time to have a basic understanding of new and upcoming fields of study.

Please check your categories. One could hardly be sentient if one denies climate change per se and no one does. If rather than these weasel words - not yours of course but introduced when 'global warming' fell out of fashion as a catch phrase - you mean CAGW (catastrophic anthropogenic global warming) then there are plenty of distinguished scientists who don't go along with that argument. Emphasis is on the C word and fundamentally the argument is a quantitative one bearing on the magnitude of the so-called climate sensitivity parameter i.e., roughly - expected global temperature versus parts per million carbon dioxide.
And Bernie Sanders being in favor of labeling GMOs.
What's wrong with that. I have the right to know the source of the food I eat and decide for myself do I wanna eat it or no...
