Bernie wouldn't lose like Hillary would to Trump on issues like TPP and H-1B outsourcing cascadiance Aug 2015 #6

99% of the country are not engaged on either of those issues. The election will not turn on those stevenleser Aug 2015 #26

20 percent WERE turned to Ross Perot on those issues in 1992! cascadiance Aug 2015 #28

23 years ago. Congrats. Not today. nt stevenleser Aug 2015 #29

Why? You think people care less about their jobs being outsourced today than then? cascadiance Aug 2015 #31
