Bernie Sanders is loving awesome. The first and only time I ever wrote a congressman was after that 8-hour speech he gave to a nearly empty Senate floor just to say "hey thanks for at least acknowledging our hosed up plutocratic system bro." I will for sure vote for him in a primary. There's no way he'd have a chance of winning unless some astronomically wealthy socialist whale comes out of the woodwork. Best case scenario he'd get a debate spot next to all the other shitbags running.

This is going to be interesting because I see no possible scenario where the Democratic Party lets Hillary be challenged publicly from the left.

They'll probably cancel the primary debates so Hilldawg doesn't have to answer questions about the TPP, or her relationship with Goldman Sachs, or any of the shady-rear end people that have given her husband money. There's no way that Bernie Sanders will be allowed to stand on a stage next to The Chosen One and talk about actual populist economic policy to contrast with her empty platitudes.

He turned it into a book, if you ever want to relive it in text form. I think that if he polls high enough, he will have to be recognized.

serious question how is it that a place like uruguay actually gets democracy right and elects someone who actually cares about the people, while american democracy is a sad, terrible joke? too much money and too big for democracy to work?

it really bugs me to no end that we continue to purposefully elect ppl who gently caress us in the rear end and even though we know it and we know it its in our power to change it we do nothing

I think it's more the money part, combined with the general apathy most people have. It's hosed. For now though, you can :justpost:

For real he's a cool dude. Like the only thing I can think of that I really disagree with him on is his feelings on nuclear power, but when the other options are literal facists, plutocrats, and corporate shill that's small potatoes

Bernie Sanders is the only sane choice for POTUS.

But when he loses I'm voting Jill Stein because the Democratic Party is a loving travesty.

Has she announced she is running? I voted for her last time around. I am happy to say I have never voted for Obama.

bernie sanders is the only candidate that would make a good president, however him being elected would result in an even less functional congress so it doesn't even matter. gently caress everything.

I actually talked to her in February when she visited Texas. Someone asked her how she felt about Bernie and she said she liked him and apparently tried to turn him Green.

Okay, Bernie. I've spoken to the board members and we're going to get behind you on this one. There's just one sticking point though that we're gonna need to renegotiate - is it absolutely imperative that we link hands when the "HOCUS POCUS POTUS!" cheer is said? And just to clarify, if all the pot is for "us", then what do we tell them so we don't appear too greedy?
