    what does all the slanderous red-baiting have to do with Bernie's actual policies? not a ing thing.
    Yeah, that doesn't matter. Why do you people try to pretend that actual politics doesn't exist? Bernie is trying to win an election against an in bent at a time when 90% of people think they're doing alright personally. He's not trying to enact any policy.

    Have you listened to any of bernies speeches/town halls?

    Just curious where you land on his policies and of the platform he is laying out?

    (not saying that they will be enacted - not saying they will all fail either)


    mainly wondering where you are disconnecting and seemingly hostile to bernie?

    I'm sounding an alarm because he ed up, learned absolutely nothing from the up, repeated and expanded the up in the most arrogant way possible.

    It's a huge red flag. It needs to be addressed. Now.

    His policies are on his website

    "90% of people think they're doing alright personally."

    bull . incomes are down under Trash, household debt at record levels, 50%+ have trouble paying the bills, and Ms are "housing stressed", eg

    https://www.ers.usda.gov/amber-waves...sing-stressed/

    Ms had their houses stolen by the Banksters Great Depression and were forced into renting, where the rents rise well above inflation.

    ok fair enough


    hate to tell you this- but you might feel even stronger about this after tonites debate lol


    i dont see bernie backing down on a lifetime of democratic socialism/activism

    I think he might go even farther - not out of arrogance but of sincere belief in what he stands for.


    i get it that you disagree with this current issue (castro/literacy) but if you listen to his complete answer-


    he ISN’T inaccurate - he DID lay out a truthful argument - in HIS opinion...

    We can argue what that means but there's a link in the article to the confidence in the economy as well which is at its highest point in 20 years.

    This is hardly fodder for a revolution.

    He's a walking, talking apologist for brutal communist regimes. If he doesn't change that, he will lose.

    Nope. Trump isn't running against an in bent during a relatively good economic time. You're in denial.

    Trash's assessement of :

    Murderer/dictator Pootin

    Murderer/dictator Kim

    Murderer/dictator Duterte

    Dictator/fascist Bolsonaro

    Dictator/fascist Erdogan

    Muslim persecutor Modi

    ... all CURRENTLY respected, adored, favored, emulated by Trash, while Trash fights with USA's democratic allies, friends.

    BUT

    Bernie is a COMMUNIST lover based on quotes of decades ago.
    Trump being diplomatic isn't equivalent to Bernie praising the Soviet Union, Cuba, China, etc. One must ask why he seems so motivated to seek elements of atrocious systems of government that he can spin a positive narrative around. Does he have a lot video that shows him praising countries that moved toward more capitalist/free markets that have had positive results? I haven't seen it. And his commentary isn't decades old. It's a couple of days old.

    no, he'll become an apologist for brutal communist regimes again like the last two times. Maybe he'll praise Pol Pot too this time.

    Here is your god - praising putin during;

    a) the time he is serving as POTUS
    b) directly AFTER a hostile attack on our country
    c) in front of the planet - testifying allegiance to Russia - and failing to even admit that the USA was attacked


    In other words - AIDING AND ABETTING a foreign government AFTER said govt attacked the USA -
    THIS IS TREASONOUS -

    Compared to bernie - who said 40 years ago as a citizen or a local politician or a flunkie -






    I dare Trump to attack Bernie on this issue - lolololol

    The people who you know...ran for their lives from the Castro regime that now live in Florida? That's a permanent stain on Bernie that those people will not forget.

    Would you say he hurt his chances there more than he helped?
    Cubans typically support Republicans already. That's my point. The people inclined to take the literal and worst interpretation from Sanders' comments, and to ignore any subsequent clarification of those comments, were unlikely to vote for him anyway.

    "Polls show declining support for sanctions among Cuban Americans.

    A June 2014 poll showed

    52% of Cuban Americans in
    Miami-Dade County, Florida, opposed the embargo and 48% supported it;

    56% of Cuban Americans in Miami-Dade County had supported the embargo in 2011,

    while 87% had supported it in 1991."


    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_embargo_against_Cuba#Details_of_Cuba n_embargo

    Bernie could pick a lot BigCorp, Hispanic, Cuban-American votes by saying he will annul the act-of-war embargo and treat Cuba like any other country.

    Nowhere in my post do I say that I'm underinsured - I can reject, I can choose, etc. - not "I do." The point is that I have a choice - not forced into Bernie's Medicare For All with no option for anything else.
    But you did...

    And now I can reject buying health insurance and not have to pay 2.5% of my income. I can choose to buy short term insurance and extend for the entire year and rinse and repeat next year instead of being stuck with the outrageously expensive Obamacare insurance.

    None of those plans offer comprehensive care, and rightly so. There's an actual reason Obamacare insurance was outrageously expensive, it mandated a minimum of coverage, which, surprise surprise, it's expensive.
