Bernie was the only one with balls to step forward. If there are any others out there then they're hiding or being hidden somehow because we don't see them.
AOC is as close as you'll get and the right immediately "Hillaried" her so now she's "damaged goods." They're very good at muddying waters and ruining candidates via propaganda and brainwashing society.
Neither Bernie nor AOC is socialist in a meaningful sense. Bernie campained on taxing the rich and single payer healthcare which is radical in the American contest but it is not enough to make him a socialist. After he got ratfucked by DNC he has started toeing their line uncritically.
If you want a prominent western anglosphere politician who is socialist, look at Jeremy Corbyn. Compare Labour's manifesto during his election to Bernie's programme. Bernie's looks extremely lukewarm in comparison.
As an American the only thing I know about him is the media smearing him for standing in front of an illuminati mural that they tried to frame as him being antisemitic... Figures he'd actually have good policies if they're going to go after him like that.
