While I see HRC as a token woman figurehead groomed with a resume on paper but of non substantial lasting achievements for the people, and leaves more questions than answers of a questionable past among voters.midwesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03717764234358060284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-64716636343123458012016-05-04T23:15:30.316-08:002016-05-04T23:15:30.316-08:00Anonymous at 11:18 PM Whether or not he's been...Anonymous at 11:18 PM Whether or not he's been told to sit down and shut up, Bernie really should stop all the negative campaigning because he's only adding fuel to the fire for the GOP, unless that's his desire? Either way, he's not going to get the nomination. He won't end up with more PD's than Hillary nor will he have more SD's even if they are prorated according to states won. As it stands right now, if you gave Hillary and Bernie the SD's from the states they won, along with their PD's, she has him beat by over 550 PD's and SD's combined. Bernie would have to defeat her by more than 30 points in each remaining contest in order to get more PD's than her! It's not going to happen! <br /><br />As far as character goes, you obviously haven't done any research into the candidate you're backing. You think he's some type of saint, the GOP will kill him with their opp. research on him starting with his rape fantasies that he wrote about, his being a deadbeat Dad who didn't bother to get a full time job with a regular paycheck until he was 40 years old and then it was with the very gov't he said he hated...what a hypocrite. As far as his financial situation is concerned, he's either very poor with money, claiming he's worth only $300k after earning six figures for the last 25 years and his wife also doing the same for many of those years. He also says he has up to $65k in credit card debt! WTF is he doing with his money? I'd like to see his taxes considering his home that he owns outright in VT is valued at more than $500k, his condo in D.C. is of equal value with a mortgage of $70k, so every asset must be in his wife's name...what does he have to hide and why? Bernie voted for the crime bill in '94, when Hillary wasn't holding office yet he acts as if it falls on her shoulders alone! That's how hypocritical he is! You need to open your eyes. No politician is perfect, including Hillary, of course, who I support. But ask yourself why Bernie did nothing for 30 years about running for President and starting a political revolution when he first proposed these ideas in 1985?! Is he lazy or what?AKRNHSNCnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-54982324457858228092016-05-04T22:54:50.458-08:002016-05-04T22:54:50.458-08:00Would you care to list what you consider to be a r...Would you care to list what you consider to be a remarkable amount of progressive legislation?

I do/did not tune in to watch analysis by two of the dolts who gave us the Palins. Hugh Hewitt? Really, MSNBC? This is the guy who applauded a Trump answer at one of the "debates". Brian Williams is a punchline, but Rachel seems to worship him. This is not the channel I used to watch. I don't care what a desk full of Republicans has to say after a primary. I feel sorry for Lawrence when he's finally allowed on camera to wince at the opinions of everyone else at the table, and more and more, that includes Rachel. I'm now tuning in to TYT for my political coverage.

I have to say as someone who has been on the fence for quite a while, though he is rallying the millenials and Independents there is no guarantee that they will vote for Hillary if he isn't the nom. He doesn't show any sign that he would back her if he doesn't get the votes.<br /><br />At some point we will need to get all liberals, progressives and Independents behind our nominee. I just don't see any sign that Bernie will help with that, and it is very important.<br /><br />Also, Bernie might very well be strong on single-payer, but at this point for me, Hillary looks to be more well rounded in all the areas of the presidency. At any rate, truly we have two of the best candidates and either would be far superior than any of the GOP's offerings.<br /><br />MildredAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-69872879321878552892016-05-03T14:53:10.340-08:002016-05-03T14:53:10.340-08:00He may be an independent, but so are almost half o...He may be an independent, but so are almost half of Americans. I think it's fair to say he has no interest in *blind* party unity; by which I mean supporting the party despite strong corporate ties.

Maybe you're...Well, let's probe this a bit. Maybe you're actually under the impression that Sanders helping a laughably small group of candidates -- and then only after a public shaming for his self-centeredness, very late in the election cycle -- is contributing to the party in a meaningful way? Maybe you truly think that his finally doing this in mid-April (!) is something to brag about instead of feel embarrassment for? Maybe you actually believe that a president and three out of 535 congressfolk are all the "revolution" needs to succeed? <br /><br />I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt by asking if you're just pathologically uneducated about the political process, instead of assuming you're motivated purely by spite. (In the latter scenario, you're still hilariously uninformed, but you look better if you go with the first option.)
