  2. @PhilippineAmerican Especially since Bernie supports a social safety net and Ron doesn't.

  3. CT should have voted for Lamont instead of Lie-berman

  4. @BenjiREC The market is wallstreet not the american people. You sound like you support that cizitens united decision that the supreme court gave when you say the market is the people. Ron Paul does not even support corporate personhood. Libertarians believe laws like the patriot act are designed to protect the government from us the people. Liberals know that these laws are not only about protecting the government but also protecting wallstreet from the people since they fund the government.

  5. @WurledPeas No valid arguement. You are using the argurement BIG state government. How does a state governents have more rights than people. People are the government. You states rights arguement is such BULLSHIT!! It is supportive of mob rule. How is that constitutional? IT ISN"T!! Strom Thurmond supportied states rights. Don't say he was a democrat. He switch parties.

  6. This is something that even the Teabaggers could agree with a "Socialist" like Bernie on. Exxon mobile should not be getting tax refunds like that.

  7. I agree how necessary the postal service is but it is now mostly for bills, junk mail, and social security checks. Very few letters are actually sent. That is what email is for.

  8. Put 60 liberal democrats in the senate. Most of these dems are bought and paid for. Also two of the democrats can't vote. Kennedy is still recovering from his stroke and Byrd is so old that time is catching up with him. He should have retired a LOOOONG time ago.

  9. @portlanddem Sanders has already said he will not run for president.

  11. Sanders is the best man in the senate.

  12. I thought Republicans were for state rights and democrats were against it. Funny to see that shift when it is states against billionaires poisoning us in the food we buy.

  13. @PsychoBurgundy6 Cut funding for the school of Americas. CUt the pentagon budget. Getting rid of Oil, coal and Nuclear Subsidizes. I will support you. But if you say the usual conservative cut crap that FU.

  14. @ncrdisabled that is because, when Reagon was in office he got rid of the tarrifs on imported goods.

  15. @dabugarman so it is better to do business with Old man potter from a wonderful life than an elected offical. Brillant idea. To think a greedy banker or CEO is more trustworthy than the government then elect politicans from the GOP that are just as greedy.

  16. @yoransom Ron still thinks the free market can police itself. He wants a mild private sector government. That is mild fascism. That is not being on our side. This movement is for populism. That is not what Ron Paul is.

  17. The middle class is already in poverty
    1
  18. @yoransom This also happens because of too much trust in the private sector. The belief that it can police itself. That is somethign Ron believes in. Getting rid of the fed won't change that.

  19. BILL CLINTON!!! The same Clinton that passed NAFTA. The same Clinton that passed the telecommunications act which consolidated media and helped make FOx news exist. The same Clinton that passed bad welfare reform. HE SUCKED!!

  20. @radfxpictures Debating would have not made a difference. Chaffee is a independent governor of RI because he was a former republican. The public does not decide the president. They only decide where the electoral college points go. The rest is determined by the state points.

  21. @WurledPeas SO States and pieces of land have rights and not black people. There is a word for that. RACIST!! SS is not bankrupt. It is in a surpluss. The private secotr only cares about profits not people. That is why Medicare and social security should stay with the government.

  22. @WurledPeas How does the arguement of states rights consistent with the idea that libertarians want a republic. Isn't that arguement supporting mob rule. I thought libertarians hated tryanny of the majority. I guess you only hate tryanny of the majority when you are in the minority.

  23. @HoneySiegalSurvivor I have already decided to vote third party presidentially but I am still voting dem in the scott Brown race and votig for my dem congressman because he is a true liberal. So you are reaching to the choir

  25. Tea Party grass roots? HAHAHAHAHAHA Koch Brothers is not Grass roots Bernie. You know that as much as I do.

  26. @XxTheTimeIsNOWxX Not even close. ROn does not find Social security constitutional. He doesn't even find the voting rights act constitutional.

  27. Boycott BP now!!

  28. @einLesenderArbeiter but you still believe the private sector or wallstreet can police itself. You still believe in a private sector government. A mild private sector government or one that is not a dictatorship but still a private sector one. That is not populist.

  29. @einLesenderArbeiter They disagree on too much and Sanders has said he will not run for president already.

  32. Wait Scott Brown. That is my senator. I can't wait for Warren to kick his butt out of there.

  33. @mn8aol WRONG!!!! The KKK are conservative not liberal. David Duke, Haley Barbour, Trent Lott, and Stropm Thurmond (Dont try saying that he was a democrat. He switched parties and the senate voting records prove it.

  34. @Salvysahagun Buy books at a bookstore if the price is cheaper. As for tutition price take better care of the college you go to and that could lower the price. Education gets privatized than the price will go up not down because then it is governed by greed rather than by the needs of the students.

  36. @journeyer58 Unfornately some of the democrats are also raping and pillaging the social services too.

  37. @tcdowning666 Berine has said he will not run

  38. @OdinLowe Too bad Hitchens and Sanders disagreed on the Iraq war. Hitchens sold out and supported it.

  39. @ProgressiveAudio He wants to be seperate from their money that is why. He wants to try to show real support for third parties. I am talking federal and you are talking state. I bet you don't even realize that all states need instant run off voting for more third party candiates to get elected. Don't be so ignorant. Berine know that the democrats are almost as corporate as the republicans. That is why he doesn't join them. I like that he is not a democrat. I makes me trust him more.

  40. Bernie is further left than Matthews because he is pretending to be a liberal. Berine is true left.

  41. Problem is Obama is not progressive.

  42. Also in our current election system Bernie would be a spoiler. Does the name Nader ring a bell?

  43. WHo are the house members of the committee? I hate Kerry and he is my senator. I hope he has a primary challenger again. I really want to get rid of him in a progressive manner.

  45. @oldhacks Gravel is too old now. He is ancient like Byrd was.

  46. @glazierEd It would have to be a third party run like Ralph Nader. A third party run is almost impossible in winning the presidency with the electoral college. I would prefer Russ Fiengold because he is a democrat. That would be easier to elect. But yes Bernie would make a good president providing the powers to be don't treet him like they they treated JFK in 1963.

  47. @SoleilCollective No, Fox does not like truth. That would take the news there being real

  48. @Hereticbooks I don't know. People are frustated with both parties. Many Obama supporters might stay at home again. I won't be one of them because I want to replace Scott Borwn with a real progressive in my state. But as for the president I am voting third party. My state is a fairly blue state and my choice to support a third party candiate for president should not make it go red. The only way things will shift to the left is if we can get democrats to show some back bone.

  49. @ProgressiveAudio WHo else should he follow? Republicans. When you are an eleected independent You have to caucus with one of the two parties. THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH INDEPENDENTS TO MAKE A REAL PARTY!!

  50. The republican budget will not create jobs.
