    Lil Bernie Flakes lived in rent control apartment.
    Of course he did. Fleecing the landlord on sub market rate rents.

    I work so hard for people and all I get is "dandruff this and, dandruff that." If only they knew...
    “The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
    Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.

    The only thing that bothered me in the debate was when he said white people don't know how it is to be poor. A friend of mine said something like: Just as I was beginning to like this candidate, he says something like that.
    He must have misspoken, but grrr. The rest of the debate was awesome, I thought. I also liked that he made his stance on fracking clear.

    Agreed. No one is perfect. But of course are going to hold politicians to a higher standard.

    Yeah, it's pretty clear that he's speaking from a BLM stance. There's really no need to be really upset about what he said considering the context.

    Interesting
    The question was about racial blind spots, was he saying he doesn't know what it's like to be poor or was he saying the girl he met with was telling him "you don't know what it's like to be poor"?

    Without looking it up 10% of whites live in poverty and 25% of blacks live in poverty. The poverty line is ridiculously low but that's another topic.

    Definitely a huge mis-step. I think I know what he meant, but the way he said it sounds awful. Gives plenty of ammo to his opponent(s) in a race where he needs to nearly be perfect, needs Hillary to trip up, and needs to get lucky.

    Unfortunately, the AFC Championship has come down to a contest of Bernie trying to convince minorities to not vote against their own interests... despite their payed-off leaders telling them to vote against their own interests.

    Lil Bernie Flakes - This is YUUUGE NEWS

    There were already minor signs of stress within the campaign, which has kept up a punishing schedule in recent weeks. Sanders appeared to snap in South Carolina when his wife Jane tried to brush dandruff from his suit, urging her to stop and prompting visible tension on stage.

    And the phenomenal rallies in other parts of the country – undoubtedly a sign of real passion among supporters – could be misleading in other ways.

    In a suburb of Boston on the night before Super Tuesday, Sanders, who came straight from a 6,200-mile tour taking in nine cities in eight states in just three days, took one look at another big crowd and declared: “I look around here and I think we’re going to win.”

    But many began to leave before the end of the speech as the poorly ventilated venue became uncomfortably warm. Not all of those who stayed were dyed-in-the-wool supporters. In common with the other venues that accommodated 40,000 supporters over the weekend, it was busy but there was no need for the usual overflow space.

    Earl Fay, a 47-year-old local resident who brought his children along, admitted he was there largely for the spectacle, but was unconvinced by the practicalities of revolution.

    “I love much of what he has to say and would love to see things like a $15 minimum wage,” he said. “But I work with the homeless, training people for jobs, and that would mean I would suddenly have to find 50% more money to pay for the trainers. It’s just not as easy as he makes it sound.

    Ok, enough about the dandruff and other comments that are closer to trolling than political discussion. Everyone...and I mean everyone...no matter who the candidate is, should show an adult discussion here of the various candidates even if you don't like them or what they are proposing. Let's get on the issues please instead of name-calling and just making nasty comments. It doesn't become you and it's important to elevate the discussion. Thanks.

    Falling down,...not staying down

    You should probably take down the entire thread of Cruz for president, or drumpf, or Romney,

    One sided censorship. It's ok. Carry on. Ban me.

    Enjoy.
