Carson just reminds me of the dude from Big Bang Theory where every episode is about how smart he is yet he has to have it explained to him like a child that he's being a huge douchebag to everyone.Jazerus posted:Someone hired an educational consultant to figure out what the youth these days want.

It's a real missed opportunity that Dr. Carson didn't do the rapping himself. (Somebody's doing the rapping) "I'm Doctor Ben Carson and I'm here to say You're gonna burn in Hell if you choose to be gay."

Hodgepodge posted:The Bernie is racist thing Is a fallacy. The one where you claim your opponent made a stronger claim than they did, prove the stronger claim false, then declare victory without ever addressing the actual claim. The charge laid at Bernies feet is ignorance/disinterest of racial and gender issues. So, for example, a person unaware of the details of gamergaters might agree that ethics in game journalism are important. Why not? Ethics are good. We like ethics. That same person, once updated on the gamergaters communities behavior towards women, would probably not want to be seen positively endorsing their slogan. And would either dodge the question or conditionally affirm it with the statement that the gamergaters movement isn't interested in ethics and show no ethics of their own. When someone repeats a dog whistle their are only two possibilities. They know what it means or they don't. You can make a very good case that Bernie doesn't mean his whistles. But the best case scenario here is still ignorance/disinterest. Which he is on the record saying btw ... He's made it clear that he views economic and social issues as separate and sees social issues as mere symptoms of economic issues. He doesn't feel it is the job of the president to try to fix social issues, just the more fundamental/important/real economic issues. I disagree with this assertion in its entirety. These social issues, to me, are economic issues. They are inextricably intertwined and I don't believe any progress can be made by ignoring either part. They have to be worked on at the same time. Period. So to me, Bernie means well but doesn't "get it" the way Clinton does. Likewise if you believe that economic and social issues are unrelated then you will probably feel that Bernie "gets it" while Clinton wastes time with unimportant things.

If people better understood the value of hard work they would rise up and throw off their reins, getting what they deserve for what they produce.

No I'm pretty sure Bernie is a racist, here's a sentence I cherry picked out of article that is immediately disproved by the proceeding sentence.

Why can't you handle someone articulating that they believe Sanders might not understand racism in contemporary America without trying to twist everything into the "you're saying Sanders is racist" strawman? Someone earlier was right, none of this is about goading Sanders, his supporters are too easy prey.

This is a perfectly valid point but for example I hate Bobby Jindal but I don't go out of my way to track down his 5 supporters and ridicule them, because he has no chance of winning. Fishmech thinks Sanders has no chance of winning but deems it vitally important to trash his supporters at every possible opportunity because he's an annoying troll.

What is the evidence for the Bernie not understanding/caring about race in America stuff? I'm actually quite curious, since on that front I'm only aware of him ceding the floor to the BLM activists and talking about race on the stump. Is there some ugly stuff in his record? Or is it just "dude from Vermont can't care about black people."
