Sanders has never had a private sector job in his life KingFlorez May 2016 #30
The fact that he's never had a private sector job speaks in his favor, The Velveteen Ocelot May 2016 #41
The fact he has never had a job outside of serving in office is pretty sad KingFlorez May 2016 #58
Working in the private sector isn't evil. My point is only that as an elected official The Velveteen Ocelot May 2016 #67
His tax return indicates he is in the top 6% of wage earners. He paid less than Thinkingabout May 2016 #87
While Sanders is relatively comfortable The Velveteen Ocelot May 2016 #92
So far Sanders has only produced one summary, did not see a tax return indicating 13%. Thinkingabout May 2016 #99
Lovely RIGHT WING talking point nadinbrzezinski May 2016 #79

Do you still believe that Hillary has "set the woman's movement back"? QC May 2016 #12
I believe that she should not focus on her gender or women's issues. As I wrote just yesterday, woolldog May 2016 #17
You used to be one of her most strident critics around here. QC May 2016 #40
Trump happened. woolldog May 2016 #52

As if you care; the people donating to Sanders' campaign trust him. Your concern is worth nothing. JonLeibowitz May 2016 #36
it's worth more than your concern. MariaThinks May 2016 #38
I'm a student who donated to Bernie. I think my concern is worth a hell of a lot more. JonLeibowitz May 2016 #44
So what? Many students have donated to Hillary and probably even Drumpf. MariaThinks May 2016 #46
No doubt; my point is my opinion about how Bernie spends the money is more valuable than a HRC JonLeibowitz May 2016 #49
i agree. so does an HRC SUPPORTER. They don't count to you? MariaThinks May 2016 #54
Their opinion is worthless in the question of how Bernie runs his campaign and spends his money. JonLeibowitz May 2016 #57
ok MariaThinks May 2016 #60
Well, your assertions about the Sanders profiting from the campaign are just that. CentralMass May 2016 #42
there is nothing wrong in accepting speaking fees. It's called commerce and capitalism. MariaThinks May 2016 #50
There are many who see it as monied interests buying influence. CentralMass May 2016 #65

When Hillary is profiting off the back of investment bankers, that means she is beholding to them. -none May 2016 #82

Well, when you got Bialystock & Bloom as your campaign managers... baldguy May 2016 #27
Do they get to keep unspent money? MariaThinks May 2016 #32
I'm not sure, Maria woolldog May 2016 #39
The answer is 'no'. But your question is phrased curiously -- as if the answer is 'yes' JonLeibowitz May 2016 #47
it would explain why someone keeps running knowing he/she can't win. MariaThinks May 2016 #51
As would many other explanations. Just because you can imagine a nefarious purpose does not imply JonLeibowitz May 2016 #55
So where does the money in the account go? MariaThinks May 2016 #61
maybe you could do some research on Federal campaign finance law before speculating? JonLeibowitz May 2016 #63
I have. And it's not pretty. MariaThinks May 2016 #66
LOL. And see Post #59 for a debunking of your 'concerns' JonLeibowitz May 2016 #70
I hope you dont' think you're Jon Stewart. MariaThinks May 2016 #123
No. JonLeibowitz May 2016 #45
Candidates don't get to keep unspent campaign funds for themselves. The Velveteen Ocelot May 2016 #59
