The person in the image is Franklin Delano Roosevelt, president of the United States from 1933 to 1945. He was effected to four terms and died in office, shortly after his fourth inauguration (now there's a two term limit). The name in the title refers to Bernie Sanders, who OP wishes had been nominated and elected in 2016.

Well written informative comment, nice!

Thanks. I recognise the name, but I don't recognise his face. I was leaning towards "Bernie" being Bernie Sanders, but I wasn't sure.

I appreciate the clarity.
