  1. Reminds me how they wanted Bernie to drop out of the primary. Well, actually, they didn't want him to run in the first place.

  2.  @damienwo9963  Bernie had hardly any name recognition when he started running in the last primary and that is a fact! He went up against someone that did and that's a fact. He gained and did very well against the Clinton machine and then became the most popular politician. Another fact. Add to that just about all of the polls for years show he beats Trump another fact. No matter how you spin it.

  3.  @morphkogan8627  So Bernie takes Corp donations now? Is no longer against Fracking? Is now supporting TPP? Against increasing Min wage? Wants to cut Social Security? Has thrown in the towel on Medicare for all?? Last I heard he was fighting for the same ISSUES he always has. I am voting for Bernie for his issues not because of who he supported in the last general. There was nothing Bernie could do with the results of the last primary with the super delegates stacked against him from the beginning! Bernie could not fight any longer when those super delegates were not going to change their minds! If Bernie had not kept his word on supporting the nominee his political career could had ended and as for me, I rather see him be able to continue to fight for the same issues he always has and he has done that then for what could had turned out ending his politically career where he would not had been able to keep fighting for the same issues he always has. After he lost the primary no one wanted him to run for President as an Independent more than I did but there was a huge risk for him to do that because clearly there is not enough people that vote's third party. It can be debated that he would had won but there is no way to know that for sure. If you haven't been listening to what the majority of Dems want, I have and that is anyone but Trump! I have even heard some of his own supporters at his Town Halls say they expect Bernie to support the nominee if he loses the primary.And the actress that said she was progressive but trying to tell everyone they should vote for Biden LOL Just too many people thought Hillary was the lesser of two evils. Others disagreed but not enough that would actually vote 3rd party! Even if some people feel like Trump is worse than Hillary and for sure others agree with that but there is also a lot of people that agree with Trump being worse so I didn't expect Bernie to do a Nader and I respected his decision that Trump was/is worse. I will vote for him again because of those same issues he is still for, not because of who he endorsed in the last primary. I sure was not, is not, a Hillary supporter! One of the main issues I am for is Medicare for all and I think Bernie is the only one that would fight for it since he has always been for it so I would be cutting off my nose to spite my face and shooting myself in the foot if I didn't vote for him just because I think he should had done something differently after he lost the last primary. He got bashed for not supporting Hillary more and then bashed for supporting her at all. He just couldn't win no matter what on that. I understand if someone disagrees with him on issues they won't vote for him.

  4.  @dannymeyer3256  It doesn't look like the OP was trying to say anything neg@tive about his intelligence. The point I would make is it does make it a little difficult for him to talk and they know that! So I agree it comes across as them being a bully.

  5. Just in case you don't know there are many on both sides of this issue so he will lose/gain no matter which side he is on. As for me on this issue I agree with Douglas Murray, Oren Cahanovitc, Ami Horowitz, Hillel Fuld, Mosab Hassan Yousef who is the son of a Hamas founding leader, Avi Yemini, and Bobby!

  6.  @flynnoflenniken7402  West sang praises to A. F. (auci) so he lost me! And reading what the Hamas Charter says I am on Israel side.

  7. Voting for Cornel then you supp0rted m a n d a t e s?

  8.  @sammysame  Yes!! And knowing she is not bought off by the likes of Bloomberg or others.

  9. I care MORE about his record for many years taking on corruption and helping people than I do that!

  10. First off, the huge amounts spent on endless wars and huge subsidies haven't hurt this nation. It's what's not spend to help people that's hurting this nation. Second off, learn MMT and you will better understand how our taxes doesn't fund any of it.

  11.  @randys6220 The big difference is there are a lot more Independents now and how many don't want either of the others.

  12. When Trump took one MILLION dollars from Pfizer and then got two Pfizer lobbyists that did help! If you wanted the jabs that is.

  13.  That Guy  And what have you done to try to get Medicare for all?

  14. ​ @Nominay  I read many threads on different sites and Nina has huge support for being Bernie's VP! She has more experience than Trump had when he ran for president! She agrees with Bernie on the issues and brings a LOT of excitement to the campaign! I have seen her name for VP among Bernie supporters more than anyone else! I had seen Warren from some wanting her to be his VP but not as many as I have for Nina! And after Warren's recent lies I doubt anyone now will want her to be Bernie's VP. Warren is not the same as Bernie on the issues, either.

  15.  @celestialbeing4767  Like I said I have heard Bernie tell their differences, some of them on the debate stage! Biden is gradually taking his own self out!

  16. If he was a player he wouldn't be fighting for policies we need and instead be partaking of their dark corp money!

  17. What I remember about Obama is the Republicans got from him 70 percent of what they wanted. That won't happen with a Bernie presidency and Obama knows it!

  18. My first impression is always of someone's record! Kennedy, Jr.'s record has earned my vote not how he sounds. He had a medical condition that causes that. NOT life threatening and nothing wrong with his thinking skills but some people will show their lack of empathy if someone doesn't look and sound perfect TO THEM.

  19.  @mrankitanks  FINALLY someone mentions how the left couldn't unite! Progressives are so divided but yet some of them want to bash the only candidate that has an actual record of fighting for them for decades. We will never have a progressive president if progressives can't unite behind one real progressive that is running for president.

  20. What are her views on the W E F? C B D Cs? man/dates?
    4
  21.  @rc123theycallme  Sounds like you want someone that controls people. What Bobby took on for many years, the cases, is much more important than him not controlling his son.

  22. You never know! I have heard a lot of Republicans would vote for him.

  23.  @comingviking  Dang I wish Tulsi was getting all of this hate for her lovely comments about Biden! As for me I vote on policies. Oh, I know I said that already LOL

  24. He has gone up against BIG companies fighting against pollution and other issues. He is against silencing free speech and if we don't have that how can we speak out for any other issues we are for/against.

  25. We should had already had Medicare for all!! I wonder how many people are still happy with their healthcare insurance through their jobs now that so many people are losing their jobs resulting in losing their healthcare insurance? You don't lose your healthcare insurance if you/we had Medicare for all. I mean, if we had Medicare for all in place at least people would still have healthcare to pay for whatever medical problems they get if it's coronavirus, cancer, or anything else! Bad enough to be out of a job but shouldn't have to worry about medical expenses, too. #OnlyBernie #NeverBiden #NeverTrump Bernie/Nina2020

  26. One of the best comments in the shortest amount of words!

  27. Technically speaking Warren is using corp donations in the primary, too, because of her corp donations from her Senate run that got transferred over for her to use in the primary. Such a hypocrite but that's not the only reason I am not voting for her.

  28.  @jonathangrunstein-ks2dz  You can have your opinions and I will have mine! Don't forget she supported Biden last time! W@r is a HUGE issue to me that Biden is for and many Republicans. So, tell me exactly what she will DO that's different than Biden other than M4A issues like that, that I mentioned the exception for. Criticizing Biden is one thing! I never said she didn't criticize him but doing, actions, is something else entirely. I am not just for cutting Military expenses when it comes to the w@rs.

  29.  @christopherwalch6291  You must be thinking of Marianne as she said she supports that but Bobby has made it clear he does NOT!

  30. Not even close! If someone is focused on policies they don't get distracted.

  31. Yang's crumbs will not eradicate poverty! Why UBI isn't progressive https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NV2iMHVPlLE Listen to youtube channel "Real Progress In Action" video "Democratic Division Bell: Bernie vs The Rest of the Pack" and then WAKE UP! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQ6aASm0gRk Bernie polls overwhelmingly higher as being the most trusted candidate on many of the issues. Does not take a genius to know why! Knowing the intent of UBI if Charles Murray's, a conservative, if his version of UBI passed that would be a lot MORE HARMFUL than helpful and there would be that risk just like Obama ended up getting a Republican healthcare plan. Listen to youtube video "Former healthcare exec Wendell Potter rips and answers CNN's industry talking points on YT channel The Hill to see why Yang's healthcare is not the best, either. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxDj4TgnQIwAs Yang Admits He's Been Lying About Medicare For All https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0gUnOGcYXnk Around 3:32 into the video Yang is asked "You're adopting the label but not the bill?" Yang replies, "That's correct" Andrew Yang is Lying About Support for Medicare for All https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZ-a8bmEXc4 Andrew Yang: "Medicare For All Is Not The Name Of A Bill" (Yes It Is) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sP_lPltuixQ Andrew Yang's Lousy Healthcare Deal Breaker | Tim Black https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8wl7Bo8Dzg Andrew Yang Angling For Biden VP https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dcyFPaM44U&t=2s Yang's words in that video start around 25 seconds into the video! https://fee.org/articles/andrew-yang-s-math-doesn-t-add-up-on-universal-basic-income/ 2020 Vision on Neoliberalism, UBI and More "Real Progress In Action" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvM1fTbYGPo The Impostors are Libertarians in Progressive Clothing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5Eg9e-Fd2c And you thought any blue would do https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4T4OZ_CsdO8 Does Richard Wolff think UBI is a solution?, "NO" "...Let me explain in a couple of ways first if you're going to give income without work to a large number of people who are not structurally part of the economy you're not going to over come the split between those who do the work and those who live off the LABOR OF OTHERS and that's a very dangerous relationship which the whole history of the human race seems to me to have taught us..." End of quote Richard Wolff even relates Yang as in trying to buy votes! "For me it panders to the lowest conceivable denominator it's another candidate saying here I'm going to hand you some money it's buying votes it's look I'm going to give you some money and now you're going to be able to solve this problem..." "...we're gonna solve this by throwing money at individuals who will then hopefully spend it in such a way that magically all of the social problems are overcome..." Talking about Bernie's solutions.... "You can go even further those kinds of structural changes even one of them would be worth a hell of a lot more than a thousand bucks so that you know you can get the idea across you are going for a much bigger prize when you go after these other issues..." End of Wolff's quotes What do you think Universal means (UBI) according to Jared Bernstein; "Take resources from people that need it and give it to people that don't need it." "The idea that automation has been killing jobs has been around forever." "Is likely to hurt more than it helps" "UBI squanders resources on people that don't need it...a dollar you give to people that don't need it is a dollar that people that need it don't get.""I don't see writing checks for everybody as a part of the American tradition. The American tradition is if you are able bodied you should work..." "The idea that automation is killing jobs has been around forever and the debate is the same.""Automation can be complimented with humans not replace humans."If in fact machines robots AI automation were replacing workers the rate of output per hour or productivity would be accelerating it would and would be accelerating quickly. It's the OPPOSITE it's decelerate it's growing more slowly so clearly technology has not found its way into the workforce in reality such that it's replacing workers at any sort of an accelerated rate." Mr. Bernstein regarding passing UBI while keeping existing social programs, "...and that is a very expensive endeavor involving the RAISING OF MUCH MORE TAX REVENUE and thus NOT something I suspect many people in this room would readily support." And Mr. Bernstein was talking about just UBI not passing with existing programs so that's not even counting getting Medicare passed, too! Mike Gravel asked about Yang "Well, I think it sounds good but it's totally flawed because you can't turn around and tax people then turn around and give them the tax monies it just doesn't make any sense. What we have to do is change the nature of capitalism..." Wendell Potter worked in the insurance industry said "we knew one of the huge vulnerabilities of the current system was LACK of choice. In the current system, you can’t pick your own doc, specialist, or hospital without huge “out of network” bills. So we set out to muddy the issue of "choice." "So if a politician tells you they oppose reforming the current healthcare system because they want to preserve "choice," either they don't know what they're talking about - or they're willfully ignoring the truth. I assure you, the insurance industry is delighted either way 11/11" https://twitter.com/wendellpotter/status/1206623259698974724 Former healthcare exec Wendell Potter rips and answers CNN's industry talking points https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxDj4TgnQIw https://egbertowillies.com/2018/08/06/nnu-single-payer-medicare-for-all/ https://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2019/oct/24/andrew-yang/andrew-yangs-claim-support-among-trump-voters-rate/ https://www.technocracy.news/ontario-canada-abruptly-cancels-universal-basic-income-experiment/

  32. This would not show up in the thread so replying to TheLastKentuckyIrregular9524 here to see if it will show. Because Trump added to the swamp and considering those that will again. Because he recommended something as being "safe" and "great" that was not neither one. Because he vetoed stopping our involvement in Yemen. Because of the hate that he puts out to everyone and their families that disagrees with him even on non political issues. Because of project Twenty 25. Because "The Revolutionary Trump has been replaced by the Aging status quo Trump..." Col. Douglas Macgregor I could say more LOL I think the above is just as bad as what Harris would do. Not the same as Harris but neither are good.

  33. I will not defend the insurance companies that profit billions off of sick and dying people! Bernie/Nina2020 RECEIPTS

  34. IF the person even got bit. I haven't seen any proof they did but if they harmed the squirrel or scared it then I wouldn't doubt that happened.

  35. I already knew I would not vote for Trump before any ind!ctments came out. Bobby is the only one I'm voting for.

  36. If Nina can't do it then no one can and that goes for anyone running in any other party, too, but Nina can't pass bills by her self and neither can the few progressives we do have!

  37.  @MaddieAudy  Oh I have kept up! And I know exactly what Trump did.
    4
  38.  @markuc  By the way tell me where was Yang when jobs were being out sourced? Before running for president did he ever say anything at all about any of the bad trade deals? NAFTA? TPP? What protests has he been in for gay rights? For civil rights? For anyone's rights? Any picket lines he has stood with workers on? When Obama and Biden proposed Social Security and Medicare cuts did Yang speak out against that? Since some of you yang supporters seem to think he is not going to eliminate social and welfare programs how about pointing me to when he has spoken out to protect them? Keep in mind I am talking about BEFORE he started running for President. Where was Yang when Trump did cut Social Security and Medicare? I like to know if Yang has protested against any of the wars? Other than giving people jobs which is hardly a good enough resume to be President of the United States what has he done? There are many important policies that are voted on and how a politician votes on them tells me if I want to vote for them or not. So tell me what policies has Yang voted on to show exactly where he stands on the issues? Oh, that's right he doesn't have a voting record. And then there's all of the flip flops Yang has done, too, since he started running for president. Yang is not buying my vote! He didn't earn it.
    4
  39.  @markuc  I mentioned him creating jobs in my comment LOL so will repeat that part of my comment... "Other than giving people jobs which is hardly a good enough resume to be President of the United States what has he done?" You didn't answer any of my questions in my previous comment as well as missed my saying about the jobs. I already read all I need to about Yang which is the only thing you Yang supporters want to read is about him. I did my homework not only listening to him, his flip flops, reading his website, listening to debates on both sides and other intelligent people that are not for Yang's policies since there are other intelligent people in the US. So for all the reasons I already named I won't vote for Yang in the primary of the general.

  40.  @michaelmccaul6436  There are a lot of people in other countries with universal health care that would never move here just for that reason and if our medical care is so great why do we rank poorly compared to other countries. Bernie's policies are not communistic!
    4
  41.  @michaelmccaul6436  It wouldn't be free! We would had paid for Medicare for all if Bernie's Medicare for all would had passed except for those already getting Medicaid that their income is too low to pay. And if we got Medicare for all would you move? You do know the majority of Americans want Medicare for all so guess those that don't are the ones that should move! Also, sounds like you have no problem with the Billions the Insurance Companies make off of sick and dying people and no problem with all the free stuff for major corporations that pay zero in federal taxes.

  42.  @mtmg3648  Yes, the violence and hate was awful. Some people even towards their own families. My fear is there still isn't enough people using their voices against all of that and more to come if enough people don't unite to stop it.
    4
  43.  @jthomas196  NO! I mean as in actual policies! Something in his voting record for decades, that would back up your stupid comments that are old arguments! At least think of something new. Bernie went to Yaroslavl for a sister city program with Burlington, VT. It was literally his job to go there as mayor and he had just got married, so what if they had a honeymoon while there. And stop pretending to care about our freedoms! Anyone that does would know the politicians on both sides that took some of our freedoms away when they voted for the Patriot Act. By the way, Bernie voted against it!!

  44.  @JerseyDaveel  That's what you believe with NO evidence to support that.

  45. I'm Independent and I am voting for him. I know his record and he's got the guts to go up against them the least I can do is vote for him.

  46.  @emswhims Well, I have listened to a ton of !nterv!ews with Bobby and none of them I heard him say that Cornel agrees with A. F. Since when doesn't Bobby call out the issues they disagree with? He doesn't do personal insults but he does call out their differences on issues and that is a HUGE one!

  47.  @Newton14alan  Not me Us :)

  48.  @mostlysunny582  I hope you are not implying all Democrats no longer love America? Anymore than I would say all Republicans don't love America because of the ones that voted for The Patriot Act that took some of our freedoms away.
    4
  49. Totally disagree! We get someone in there fighting for us they shouldn't be forced out. Blame it on anything you want but if they are not for policies for people instead of their corp donors it's voters own fault for not voting them out, period.

  50.  @evolu9660  you would think they would get informed at least on policies that affect them!
