on his own no, however if he gets elected it could lead to a shakeup in the democratic party that helps pull them left of center for the first time in decades.

settling for the status quo by electing hillary is guaranteed to not change anything, so there's nothing to lose.

I'll be perfectly happy if bernie can at least give hillary a few PTSD flashbacks to '08 and make her sweat this entire primary out


Having one of the most hyped mainstream dem candidates very nearly taken down by a 73 year-old socialist grandpa would send one hell of a message

the democratic party as it exists won't, and that wasn't my point.

my point is that if sanders does really really well, we could see new candidates enter the fray for congressional seats who run on a similar platform to sanders. poo poo won't change overnight, but if we don't do anything it won't change at all.

Good point. Nationalize the banks, sieze their assets and redistribute them via progressive social programs and public works projects. More communism, everyone wins.

What a party or a politician stands for doesn't matter at all. Far right and "far left" politicians (within the scope of the american system) will do the bidding of who paid for their campaigns and what they actually campaign for doesn't matter.

:ssh: if the people with big money fund candidates that don't win they tend to get real grumpy, and if they find that the reason those guys lost was because even though the unfunded guys crowdsourced their campaign funds from the youth who then outvoted the voter blocks easily bought by corporate candidates they'll eventually either decide there's no profit in backing pure capitalist scum or they'll keep throwing their money away until they haven't got any any more

More ministerial blithering, more shitposts for Bernie!

Will these dreams still follow me
On of dark obscurity?
Can't you see it up in the sky
As it kicks you in the face and lets you die
You never have the answers
And now you tell me the facts of life
I really couldn't be bothered with you
Get out of my face and watch me die
Bernie inside! Bernie inside!

Absolution and a frozen room
Are dreams of men below
I try to grab it but the touch is hot
The mirrors collapses, but the image can not
I'm scared of darkness in a light
I scare myself cause I know I'm right
I see the evil in your savage eye
As it cuts right through the sky
Bernie inside! Bernie inside! Bernie inside! Bernie inside!
Bernie inside! Bernie inside! Bernie inside! Bernie inside!

Calling the mantra with a blade in the skin
For the demons within
I feel the pain is the death and decay
But the lesson never fades away
Too little shadows, turn away
Another man through the window pane
Another slave and a victim of fate
Another lesson in hate
Bernie inside! Bernie inside! Bernie inside! Bernie inside!
Bernie inside! Bernie inside! Bernie inside! Bernie inside!
