(19,537 posts)Now if you mean "has been a public servant" then SAY THAT and stop talking like a kid in grade school that is going to get an F in English class if you are trying to persuade us to your point of view. You just make the case for many of us here that in order to follow Hillary, your mind isn't as in gear as the minds of the rest of us are and that perhaps that is typical of Hillary followers (which is likely not the case as many here are able to speak well). Normally I'm not too critical in that regard, but you seem to make a point of criticizing the rest of us heavily, and not being very descriptive in your criticisms towards us which really in just about all of your threads has interacting with you just devolve in to a name calling exercise. You STILL have NOT explained SPECIFICALLY what is wrong with socialism. You only demonstrate that you have the capacity that many right wingers have of just echoing it as an expletive that means NOTHING to those of us who want some real change in this country, who look at how democratic socialism is being practiced in places like Sweden where they have some of the happiest people on earth, and where if you show Americans bar charts showing their more balanced wealth divide versus our extreme wealth divide, most Americans interviewed for such studies choose Sweden as the society they'd rather have than even a less extreme divide they are shown than what we actually have in this country.
I'm only taking issue with YOUR ATTEMPT at propaganda against Sanders by saying Americans won't vote for a socialist as if that is a reason to vote for Hillary.
