that's how the post I responded to, began. I responded in a like manner. your post(s) have been snide and have not demonstrated what you claim- that you're merely looking for information about Sanders. That's obviously disingenuous.
I've given you specifics. You've been told repeatedly that you can go to his senate website where his positions are laid out in detail.
You play transparent games and I take it that you have no research skills. It's quite easy to find out, in specificity, what Sanders policies are. His Presidential platform is all there on his Senate website.
I like Sanders. I trust him to some degree, but then I'm familiar with him. He's represented me in Congress for 25 years. I'm not passionate about him or even terribly loyal. I take exception to his positions on the F-35 and some onerous votes on gun control. I don't expect Sanders to win. I'm passionate about the ISSUES he espouses and has espoused for years. I agree with his specific solutions- like raising the cap on social security, raising taxes on cap gains.
I am passionate in my opposition to Hillary. She's a center right dem except on social issues. She's a corporatist of the first order. She talks out of both sides of her mouth. She doesn't exhibit political courage or leadership. Odds are that I'll have to hold my nose and vote for her in the general- which I think she stands a good chance of losing.
And now we are done. Your pretense that your being civil and mature is something I find difficult to stomach.
You are transparent- and p-a.
