I think I just got a newfound respect for Bernie Sanders - not that I do not had it before - but I think that Sanders could be the next FDR - if he was to be elected - as he have all the right values to turn a lot of problems the right way....

Not that it would not be a difficult way for him - but so do was it not easy for others who wanted to change the ship who bear the name United States of America around - but he is great - and I do hope he can get the nomination - he would be a nightmare for the GOP... As what he propose is jugs common sense - nothing more..

He is only one week into his campaign and look at what he has done. Bernie Sanders is a serious candidate. His message is consistent.



.


Listening to Hillary in that little video segment I say Bullshit...Hillary even sounds like a Republican
I listened to her until she threw in one of Elizabeth Warrens' lines declaring the deck was stacked.

Hillary you are not Elizabeth Warren. Elizabeth Warren is sincere and you Hillary are phony

If Hillary Clinton is a liberal than the Charles and David Koch support unions and are out there fighting for rights of the Working class.

I think people might just start waking up to that soon. Sanders is presenting policy ideas that can work, are practical, and remind us all why were are progressive and of the great things we have done collectively as a nation.

honest answers from a man who has been fighting for progressive ideas all his political life...


And stop saying he can't get elected...of course he can...

I hate that expression, "I have been blessed." It is code-speak for "I am Christian," and I hear it in way too many inappropriate places, like job interviews and school board meetings. I've started using it myself, and have found myself accepted by the RW crowd instantly just for doing so. Anyone who starts a speech with it is suspect. But I guess that's what it takes to get elected. Pandering.
