(42,862 posts)22. He's done far more damage to his Socialist cause/s than good.
that may not be a big effin' deal, but it is a notable achievement.
Those are vanity numbers. Something for his ego only. In the real world, he's done far more damage to his Socialist cause/s than good. He's created distrust and resentment. He's alienated those who would be in the best position to partner with or help him. We already know what Hillary said to Hulu... "nobody likes him" (or words to that effect) and that he can't work well with others. He has weakened and divided the Democratic party and that puts us again in the position of being vulnerable when facing a cheating GOP that's being helped by Russia.
That might not be Mount Rushmore
I do not see him as being any sort of hero, Rushmore or otherwise.
All I'm trying to say here is that I'm not as sentimental as you. I'm not as forgiving as you. I know what I've seen. My eyes did not deceive me. I don't easily forget when I feel betrayed and when I see others around me being betrayed and smeared. And I know that I'm not the only one who feels this way. I'm not exactly sure why anyone thinks he "deserves" anything from me... other than the same amount of contempt that he's heaped on the Democratic party and other loyal and stalwart Democrats such as myself.
He's been sincere in his beliefs for the good of all of us
That's hardly a compliment. You do realize, don't you, that many many people are sincere in a lot of things they believe in. That's not always a good thing.primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Care to cite your source on that? At least she never profited from legislation that she pushed

It is immensely disappointing no candidate Is left to go after corporate corruption on Wall Street.
