    Bernie Sanders

    There are some good points there, with a bunch of not true/slanted points. To be clear (again): i was a big Bernie supporter in 2016, and happily voted for Hillary. i was a big Sen. Dr. Prof. Warren supported this year, Bernie being my second choice. I am now a very enthusiastic "No Malarkey"...

    Bernie Sanders

    And i as predicted, Bernie Sanders has endorsed Joe Biden for president: The two men appeared via live stream on split screens — each on each other’s live streams — talking to each other. “We need you in the White House,” Mr. Sanders said to Mr. Biden. “And I will do all that I can to make that...

    Blow me. So i can't spell very well- i am a high-school drop-out after all. Posting anything that might be construed as legal advice without a disclaimer can get a person in trouble. At least 90% of my posts here have been about other shit, and thus haven't needed one. ----------------- Turns...

    Bernie Sanders

    The Democratic Party is kind of big on democracy, thus the name. 3 million more Americans voted for Hillary than voted for your man Trump. The Republican Party is the one that spends an enormous amount of money and energy to make it as hard as possible for Americans to vote, and to stop...

    Bernie Sanders

    Well, if being able to own a gun is more important to you than being able to afford one, maybe that'll work out for you. If you think you need a gun for when we Democrats come to force you to have free education, and free healthcare, and a right to earn enough money to live on if you work, and...

    Bernie Sanders

    America is not "the envy of the world", America has been a third-world country with shitty living standards, very bad health care, very expensive education, shitty expensive housing, etc, etc, but with an unusually large number of rich people, for longer than you have been alive. I am old...

    Bernie Sanders

    Probably you should have payed more attention in high school, or read some things about politics and history, before you post silly opinions like this. By your standards, every single other industrialized country is communist or will turn communist, because every single other industrialized...

    Bernie Sanders

    So now Bernie is out. He hasn't endorsed Joe yet, but he will. So, the remaining choices are Joe Biden or Donald Trump. Voting for anyone but Biden means you are voting for more Trump, and not voting means you are voting for more Trump. Hitler got elected when Communists were too pure to vote...

    Bernie Sanders

    I don't think there is going to be anyone who posts here who is going to say "Joe Biden is my #1 choice!" But he will run on the most progressive, left platform of any Democratic candidate in history (just as Hillary was to the left of any previous candidate, whatever some want to believe)...

    Bernie Sanders

    Just have to add- Hillary got 3 million more votes than Trump, which was more votes than any other Presidential candidate in history. Trump won because he got very very lucky in the Electoral College, not because Hillary was an unpopular candidate. Incidentally, i supported Bernie in 2016 and...

    Bernie Sanders

    Of course we'll never know. And i have made this argument myself. But the fact is, Bernie Sanders endorsed Hillary in 2016, and campaigned for her. It wasn't enough to beat Trump. This doesn't make sense. So the Democratic party is to blame that Sanders insists on continuing the primaries...

    Bernie Sanders

    Well, them, and the very large majority of members of the Democratic Party who voted in primaries for someone else. That's the best thing i can think of to say about Joe- he is the most popular candidate. Oh, and the fact that Bernie, and Warren, will endorse him soon, and will campaign for...

    Bernie Sanders

    No, he can't, unless he wins 64.4% of all remaining delegates. So far, he has won 39% of the 2300 delegates allotted, to Biden's 52%. So, he will have to do much better than he has in any primary so far, in every single remaining primary, to get a majority. That just isn't going to happen. He...

    Bernie Sanders

    Believe me i know, Biden's criminal justice history as a Senator, and history on bankruptcy in particular are awful. He's been in politics since 1973, representing a state that wasn't Confederate, but where folks do talk awful Southern. That's one reason you have to look to him adopting...

    Bernie Sanders

    Who will be endorsed by Bernie, and who Bernie will campaign for, hard, because he knows the alternative, four more years of Trump, is unthinkable. Just like he endorsed, and campaigned hard for Hillary in 2016. Bernie is not going to be the Democratic nominee. Biden is not my first or even my...
