TYT Cenk: Bernie Sanders is awesome

he has no path to victory. Oh well.

is both foolish & deadly. Shall we empower those who seek to disempower people, or those who represent our values with everything they've got?

of a 2-term Obama presidency? Bernie is really on the issues, the ones that ordinary Americans care about. Like shining a light on the "too big to fail" nonsense.

That was a great video. I'm going to bookmark it to keep in my sharing scrapbook if you will. I looked up the Cantor race as I am not familiar with the particulars and saw that he was beaten by a tea party crazy. But there is a takeaway. A lot of this sounds very familiar.

A huge difference in campaign funds: Cantor $2Million vs Brat $200,000

Brat targeted the base with anti-immigration being his banner. Being racist is essential to being a tea party Republican, but the takeaway is that the base is important to winning a primary.

He ran against establishment Washington:


MONEY was not the deciding factor in the race:


It shows that a politician who fires up the base CAN win. People on left and right are sick to death of the establishment. And Cenk is right, breaking up the banks, while not currently a political possibility, is what many Americans would favor. It only highlights how little people are actually represented in this country and could be a strong plank in his political campaign. People are still starving for change!

I like Hillary better. Bernie has been a great senator but Hillary was a First Lady, a senator, and the Secretary of State.
The Repugs have denigrated her and made up lies as in the recent book "Clinton Cash". This lowlife regurgitates all
of the lies that the Repugs have created. The Clintons have always been for working families. During Bill Clinton's terms
he attempted to address all of his campaign promises, but he also had major problems with the repubs. The witch hunts
and the nasty efforts of the repugs kept him form doing far more for the country. This also happened to Barack Obama
but to a greater extent. Boner told the country that the repugs would not pass any of his initiatives and fought him to
the determent of the country. Hillary is the only Democratic candidate with the experience, knowledge, and temperament
for the job. Why would we elect any one else. I see a lot of hate professed on this web site, I believe most are trolls, but
there are some that tell us they are liberals or progressives. They may be, but I think they are blue dogs. Agree on not
this is my opinion. I have been around for presidential elections since 1960 and if we elect a repub, all social programs will
dissapear or be privatized. Wall street needs more profits.

please do.


But if you think there's room for improvement, you might want to reconsider. Your choose.

is correct...let us see if a real progressive...Bernie...can beat a war-hawk shill for Wall Street and her husband...who helped tank the economy especially with NAFTA and repeal of Glass-Steagall...and became very, very wealthy...

Awesome, Cenk! K & R! To see just how powerful and awesome Bernie is, you just have to see how Hillary is nervously shifting her positions on the the issues to seem even more populist, and more to the left of what she actually is. While Bernie's on the campaign trail, back in Washington, he is actually walking the walk, as he has done for the past 30 years. Go Bernie!

The reason that I voted for Obama was for financial reform.
