    Why many Sanders supporters will once again be voting for Trump this election

    I know, you’re thinking how could any person could support Trump and Sanders indifferently? Well I know a lot of Sanders supporters both in person and on the internet who were also secret Trump voters. I too supported Sanders in the 2016 primary but voted for Trump in the general election. I...

    Should we fear the Democratic Party?

    As most of us have heard, Democratic Party leaders are getting very worried. In fact, establishment leaders interviewed by the New York Times say they are willing to risk intraparty damage to stop Bernie Sanders. To be more specific, if Sanders arrives at the convention in July without a...

    Should we fear Bernie?

    Bernie's been in government for a few decades now. He seems like a nice guy who's never been able to do much with his ideas. But happens if he wins? What happens if all of his ideas suddenly are backed by major power? Millenials don't remember the evils of Socialism but many Gen Xers and...

    How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bern

    Please forgive the thread title; I couldn't resist. ;) So, if Bernie Sanders is the nominee, "conventional wisdom" among moderate Democrats is that he wouldn't be a "safe" choice because he's an avowed socialist. But if 2016 taught me anything, it's to not put too much faith in the...

    Dr. Oz Gets One Right

    Not sure if this belongs in U.S. Politics, Pseudoscience or Medicine Forum but Dr. Oz attempted to medsplain to the empty suits and dresses at Fox attempting to pile on Bernie Sanders and they shut that thang right down.

    Bernie Sanders at the Fox News town hall

    Bernie Sanders at the Fox News town hall Monday evening. I'm impressed with his crowd control there, something I haven't seen too much of, let alone in an event hosted by conservatives. He knows the stakes this time around. :D p4ozAACcc8I I do wish he did better explaining the false...

    Trump's White House makes a solid case for socialist policies

    I have posted other links about the new White House report on Socialism in the Economics, and Finance thread, but I think that this one belongs here:

    Bernie Sanders town hall feat. Elizabeth Warren, Michael Moore

    ...Drew over 1.7 million views. Link. You can watch the video here: pb2ZZ_iqi3w What's interesting is Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders, if they run again, may be better served supporting each other in light of these cooperative events. I don't think they will run against each other.

    Bernie Sanders' template for Democratic candidates

    I hope the corporate Democrats open their eyes and not go the way of Ossoff or Rob Quist. For far too long they have become out of touch with the working class. Bernie Sanders raised tens of millions of dollars in small donations alone. Amazing. For some, I think the issue is the severe...

    Bob Fitrakis: Hillary Stole the Nomination from Bernie

    Some of you may recall Fitrakis for his 2004 claim that Bush stole Ohio, which got quite a bit of traction on the left. Fitrakis is a political science professor at an Ohio community college, which at least gives him some veneer of credibility on the issue of politics in that state. But check...

    Why I will never regret voting for Donald Trump

    There's only one reason that I, a voter from a swing state, voted for Donald Trump. The 2020 election! Let's be honest, this was one unique election, an entertaining outsider republican with a rabid fan base vs a dull low energy establishment candidate with a fan base of soccer moms. In the...

    Would Bernie Sanders have won?

    I think it is worth asking this question as we heard a lot about how Sanders would have been sunk by his self-proclaimed "socialist" label. And yet, if we were to look at the states that Clinton won which would a Bernie Sanders presidential candidate lose? And looking at the states that Trump...

    What Bernie accomplished was still significant

    Bernie didn't get the nomination. That's alright, in my opinion. When he entered the race the talking heads thought he would just be an afterthought. He was a self identified "socialist" who talked a lot about inequality. That would never sell in AMERICA they all said. He wants to model the...

    Place your bets for California's Democratic Primary. It's really just that simple. Vote above. ETA: California allows early voting up to 4 weeks before the primary. An independent voter must ask for a Democratic ballot at the polls. California's population is 38.6% Hispanic, 6.5% black...

    The election is wearing on me

    This election is draining me. But it isn't the Trump nonsense as I generally don't know anyone that subjects me to his brain droppings. It is the ongoing petulant slap fight on the Democratic side. It has made facebook such an exhausting ordeal that I've opted to just skip it most days rather...

    A Jill Stein / Bernie Sanders ticket?

    Green Party Intrigue: Jill Stein's Tweet To Bernie Sanders Adds Yet Another Wild Card For Superdelegates Personally, I don't think that Sanders would ever do it, but he's certainly surprised me before. And a lot of his fans are going to be disappointed if he endorses Clinton. Things are...

    Bullish on Bernie: The Bernie Sanders 2016 Thread II

    Bernie could take 100% in the remaining caucus states, and if he doesn't do well in the big primary states, he'll still lose by 500. Remaining Caucus States: Wyoming, Guam, US Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, North Dakota... Total 132 delegates if he takes 100%. He won't, but assume...

    Hillary vs Bernie

    Here we shall discuss the differences between Hillary and Bernie, in a polite, mature and professional way. Here we go: Hillary is a much better candidate than Bernie. Why? Cause Bernie co-sponsored 355 bills in Congress over 24 years, only 1 passed the House. Hillary co-sponsored 417 bills...

    I'm thinking of abandoning Bernie

    I like Bernie. I do. I see him as slightly better than Hillary on a number of issues I care about. I have a Bernie sticker on my car. I was planning on voting for him in the primary. But the reality is that lately his supporters are really rubbing me the wrong way. It seems I can't click on...

    Fox decides beheading Bernie is a laughing matter

    Fox News continues to be obtuse and evil. On their Fox Business subsidiary Stewart Varney and Fox pundit Mark Steyn decided that Bernie Sanders talking about climate change being a larger threat than Islamic terrorism was a starting point for a dark joke...

    The folly of Trump and Sander's protectionism

    The anti socialist billionaire and the socialist anti billionaire are on opposite sides in just about every way but they do share the same flawed philosophy when it comes to economic protectionism. Here are a handful or articles on Donald Trump and Bernie Sander's shared ideology. Here's how...
