Why do you say that? KPN May 2018 #95
Your statement isn't accurate. The problem you'll have with this angle R B Garr May 2018 #109
Well, Trump Has Shown That an Anti-Immigrant, Anti-Trade, Pro-Gun Platform Can Win TomCADem May 2018 #47
Bernie has a D- rating by the NRA, is pro-fair trade and the farthest from anti-immigrant Tiggeroshii May 2018 #54
Fartherst from anti-immigrant? Ask Lou Dobbs He and Sanders look like two peas in a pod lunamagica May 2018 #71
Oh goodness.... Tiggeroshii May 2018 #79

Not sure how "first and founding member" leads to any confusion. Tiggeroshii May 2018 #74
That's the take of "The Hill", no one else. Edit: meant "The Nation", not "The Hill". George II May 2018 #82
That's another point of divisiveness.. always Cha May 2018 #125
Six were involved, one gets credit. Sad. George II May 2018 #127
Bernie was a founding member AND it's Chairman for the first EIGHT years despite Uncle Joe May 2018 #117
Yes, "A founding member", not "THE founding member". Glad you concur, I've been trying... George II May 2018 #121
.. Uncle Joe May 2018 #123
And on the pedestal these words appear: Grokenstein May 2018 #68
Ha! DavidDvorkin May 2018 #84
Running Conservative Dem's doesn't give "more power to Republicans"? harun May 2018 #60
