Well, with this post, you have proven one thing: arcane1 Jul 2015 #1

I think it's the latter Armstead Jul 2015 #22

And I should forsake my viewpoint.... daleanime Jul 2015 #36

Bernie is running because he's a better Democrat than most Democrats and he is concerned AtomicKitten Jul 2015 #2

Well put! emsimon33 Jul 2015 #58

Agreed...they couldn't slither fast enough. Unfortunately, that slime Lieberman keeps crawlin back out from under his rock to run his mouth. Had enough of that ass. InAbLuEsTaTe Jul 2015 #127

No he's not about today's corporate Democratic Party. Cleita Jul 2015 #5

You'd rather he run as an Independent? bunnies Jul 2015 #6

The made-up smears are starting to exhibit a noticable lack of creativity arcane1 Jul 2015 #10

Maybe the splinters are large enough to use for shit-stirring. bunnies Jul 2015 #13

They are proving to be increasingly ineffective at that task arcane1 Jul 2015 #21

Heh! nt artislife Jul 2015 #32

He is a better Democrat than all the DINOs we currently have in office. djean111 Jul 2015 #7

The revolution rhetoric really pisses me off BainsBane Jul 2015 #8

I auppose you'd rather he play the spoiler and run 3rd party? Armstead Jul 2015 #23

This is exactly what pisses me off BainsBane Jul 2015 #27

You have a quote for us? arcane1 Jul 2015 #29

I shall give you credit! emsimon33 Jul 2015 #67

Lovely! artislife Jul 2015 #68

Eloquently put.... BooScout Jul 2015 #44

So, the answer is no. n/t arcane1 Jul 2015 #50

The answer is yes BainsBane Jul 2015 #59

No it isn't. Show me where "he tells you all electing him is going to save America" arcane1 Jul 2015 #61

LOL! emsimon33 Jul 2015 #65

But you're still undecided, right? ;) DisgustipatedinCA Jul 2015 #56

Actually, I think you misunderstood emsimon33 Jul 2015 #74

Wonderfully stated. I particularly love your last paragraph so much, that I'm taking lunamagica Jul 2015 #80

Impossible to recommend this post enough ismnotwasm Jul 2015 #89

So now you're quoting Fox News and Newsmax commentators? Okay Armstead Jul 2015 #116

It is Time magazine BainsBane Jul 2015 #117

Clearly you should look up who you are quoting and where they are coming from Armstead Jul 2015 #119

Here's some more wisdom from your source of astute analysis Doug Schoen Armstead Jul 2015 #118

What's he supposed to say? "Give and go home?" Armstead Jul 2015 #30

our current front runner ibegurpard Jul 2015 #37

No, you aren't listening to what he says. Vattel Jul 2015 #38

Indeed, he has REPEATEDLY said a mere president can't do it all by themselves. arcane1 Jul 2015 #39

Hey Vattel... sheshe2 Jul 2015 #86

Sorry, but I don't see your point. Vattel Jul 2015 #88

Why sheshe2 Jul 2015 #91

Have a nice day. Vattel Jul 2015 #121

Then why is he saying, for example, that HE will overturn Citizens United? George II Jul 2015 #95

He doesn't say he will overturn Citizen's United Bjorn Against Jul 2015 #99

Not an inaccurate statement: George II Jul 2015 #101

Ok I admit he worded that poorly Bjorn Against Jul 2015 #103

He obviously worded it the way he WANTED it to sound, like "HE" could do it as president. George II Jul 2015 #130

You obviously know nothing about Bernie Bjorn Against Jul 2015 #132

I hate it when facts.... BooScout Jul 2015 #129

Yet another "inconvenient truth". George II Jul 2015 #131

"I don't like being bullshitted" and your candidate says this neverforget Jul 2015 #40

"electing him is going to save America"? Where and when did he say that? Autumn Jul 2015 #46

Good luck! arcane1 Jul 2015 #52

To see a person on DU lie like that just to slam Autumn Jul 2015 #55

Clearly he is doing something right! arcane1 Jul 2015 #57

and yet you enthusiastically support a corporat candidate who has a history of riding the fence and dionysus Jul 2015 #64

and that would be another example of what pisses me off BainsBane Jul 2015 #75

i read that essay of a post before i responded. it's a bit of a gish gallop. you're quick to go dionysus Jul 2015 #97

So you are saying you aren't willing to put up with the work to get Bernie elected? cocainecowboy Jul 2015 #69

they won't lift a finger for bernie... Hillary was supposed to win last time, but got smoked by dionysus Jul 2015 #100

I do believe you have verbalized exactly they problem Sheepshank Jul 2015 #71

Might as well elect Trump or Perry, eh? MannyGoldstein Jul 2015 #108

I get the metaphor of Koch/other money buying government influence, but gets voters on board first. freshwest Jul 2015 #48

Actually his record speaks for itself emsimon33 Jul 2015 #62

Then he's been 'appropriating' it for five decades. Kind of weird to claim that someone who sabrina 1 Jul 2015 #102

Bernrage du jour - he's not REALLY a Democrat azurnoir Jul 2015 #41

Facts can be presented any way one wants to present them Armstead Jul 2015 #137

And some people persist ... NanceGreggs Jul 2015 #138

That's flat out bullshit Armstead Jul 2015 #139

Despite your insistance ... NanceGreggs Jul 2015 #140

Whatever...It's a fact. Armstead Jul 2015 #141

Again ... NanceGreggs Jul 2015 #142

Because you are so stubborn...It brings out the stubborn in me Armstead Jul 2015 #143
