  18.  @kaymiller5300  Didn't have time to read all of this comment, too, after responding to your other one but I saw the first part so I will answer that on why I trust Bernie and you are wrong to say he knows nothing and has no experience in anything. You are definitely showing just how much you are not smart to not know the good he has done even if you don't agree with his policies that is totally not accurate that he hasn't done anything and that he has no experience. Bernie pushed the Stop Bezos Act to increase minimum wage. Disney followed suit after Bernie protested in Anaheim. Six states have moved in that direction. 3 states — New Jersey, Illinois and Maryland — have enacted legislation phasing-in a minimum wage of $15 an hour. California, Massachusetts and New York are the other 3 states that have passed legislation that gradually increases the state minimum wage to $15. He recently got the vote passed for a bill to halt the Yemen War. This is the guy who wanted to break up the big banks and predicted the collapse of 2008. He was against the Bank bail outs. He wants to stop military funding increases and predicted the false-pretense war in Iraq & the rise of extremists (ISIS) 10 years ahead. He predicted the Patriot Act/NSA would break laws to invade our privacy. He wanted to prevent NAFTA/TPP He voted against the Patriot Act while just about all of the others voted for it. Don't pretend to be for our freedoms if you are not speaking out against all of the politicians that voted for it. Bernie is known as Amendment King. He also predicted the Panama Papers tax evasion scandal. He predicted the tax breaks would cut into Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and he was right. This level of intuition, and his abilities as a strategist, are what I believe we need in a president. https://m.dailykos.com/stories/2015/11/28/1453742/-5-Times-Bernie-Sanders-Foresaw-The-Future? He's been a public servant for the people for over 40 years. How many candidates do you know that have a similar congressional record? Who else brought these campaign ideas that everyone is holding into the mainstream? Bernie is a natural catalyst that incites change. And he's changing it from the ground-up, not top-down. He's walking the picket line with workers. He took a lot of people to Canada to get their meds cheaper since they couldn't afford them here. Senator Sanders has the best voting record of any candidate on war and peace issues, especially on military spending. Opposing the oversized Pentagon budget, he has only voted for 3 out of 19 military spending bills since 2013. By this measure, no other candidate comes close, including Tulsi Gabbard. In other votes on war and peace, Sanders voted as requested by Peace Action 84% of the time from 2011 to 2016, despite some hawkish votes on Iran from 2011-2013. Bernie challenges the military industrial complex and HAS BEEN CHALLENGING THEM for decades. In terms of stopping the war in Yemen, Sanders has been a hero. Over the past year, he and Senators Murphy and Lee have led a sustained effort to shepherd his historic War Powers bill on Yemen through the Senate. Congressman Ro Khanna, whom Sanders has chosen as one of his 4 campaign co-chairs, has led the parallel effort in the House. https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Bernie_Sanders Ok, If I don't have time to continue this discussion I think we have both made our points. Have a nice day!

  20.  @kaymiller5300  You are telling me Socialism is not the way to go? You are not even smart enough to know it's been here LOL Public education is socialism. Armed forces is socialism. The fire dept is socialism. The police dept is socialism. Social Security is socialism. Medicare is socialism. National parks is socialism. I just hope you are not a hypocrite and call the fire dept if your house is on fire and instead put the fire out yourself since you are against Socialism or if you live long enough to get Social Security make sure you turn it down! Do you even know the countries that have Bernie's policies for decades and did NOT lead to communist countries? I know people in some of those countries (not Venezuela!) and they are very happy with their health care and would never live here! How can anyone be ok with someone dying without the money for health care to try to save their life? I am so glad I am not a Republican anymore! And yes I was one for many years before going Independent. I acknowledged that the problems didn't start with Trump but that he has continued them. WHAT PART OF WHAT I SAID ABOUT OBAMA DIDN'T YOU GET THAT I WAS NOT BLAMING JUST TRUMP AND WROTE TRUMP IS CONTINUING SOME OF THE BAD POLICIES OF OBAMA. I didn't say Trump started it. Sheeesh!! Although Trump has clearly done things that were not good that can't be blamed on Obama! And I even agreed with what you wrote about Hillary. Venezuela.....Did socialism freeze their overseas assets? Did socialism cause them rely on oil revenue instead of diversifying their economy? Did socialism talk private companies into hoarding and smuggling critical resources away from their population? I didn't mind you didn't respond to all of my comments either because I know I wrote a lot, too LOL But this discussion really needs to end because we are not going to change each other's minds and personal insults never work, either. Now, I've spent my short breaks replying to you and did address most everything you wrote so lets both be smart enough to end this LOL
