Bernie Sanders for President

Thanks for the good thoughts Bentleyspop, but it's all good. The Antigonizers used to get me riled up until I began to realize that it is easy to ignore them. But they can be very useful for honing ones critical thinking and refining ones position on issues. Thus, instead of being seen as an irritant or an enemy, they can be seen as providing an opportunity to fine tune ones thoughts without taking serious offense to what they say.Bentleyspop said:
Brian...thanks for making an effort but there is no reasoning or making sense with the trolls. They are only here to rile you up. They only understand insults and ignorance. Best you can do is not respond to their rants and hope they go away.brianlux said:I fully understand that hope is not a strategy. Besides, strategies are far to often stagnant, inflexible and short sighted. Hope is the elixir that gives strength to action. Action is the antidote to stagnation.
As for winning: "To win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.” Sun Tzu
Namaste
One thing for sure, I never expect anything I say will change an Antigonizers viewpoint. On the other hand, you never know.
In the bigger picture, what we are seeing through both much of the media and through Sanders opponents is an all out effort to discredit Bernie and falsify what his stances are. So the focus needs to be to get people to understand the difference, say, between communism and democratic socialism. To refute the idea that Sanders is proposing every should be "free". To ignore or at least laugh at those weak efforts to discredit and falsely describe his positions. People only do this when they are afraid of something they don't understand. Once they get a clearer picture, some of them may even join the effort to bring positive change to this country and stop giving it all to the billionaires."It's a sad and beautiful world"-Roberto Benigni0 -
Think again Einstein.... It will suck for the country, not me.. As long as there is a Dumycrat in charge I personally make a ton more dough in OT...always have.... But this is not about the awesome trips I can afford, it's about the greatness Of the USA. So why don't you focus on that ....callen said:H

Could give a shit about the greatness of the USA, nationalism so overrated, and don't really care how it affects you, just find it entertaining to be able to communicate directly to a person of your beliefs and realities. And if you are a cop know it sucks for someone to tell you how it is without the ability to "arrest me". Like reporter that told secret service to fuck off. That's for my entertainment. Thank you.muskydan said:

No hate here, but you might want to spread some of your magical ferry humanitarian dust over some of these protesters since it obvious they don't live in harmony w/ each other seeing how they are killing each other at shocking levels lately.
And if you didn't think that cupcake reporter getting floored by the secret service agent was entertaining for me, well let me tell you something...It was NOT just FOR YOU...0 -
So I see poor under educated disenfranchised humans committing crimes. I don't see race. Affluent educated minorities do t commit crimes.muskydan said:

I feel minorities have shown remarkable restraint. Fk I'm pissed off and won the fkn lottery.
We can make all this better or we can make it worse. Are you helping with your rhetoric? No. Do you really want things to get better? Nah. Nuts whites that have it made bitch.

In 2008 Obama lost 21 states. HRC initially had a 3 to 1 super delegates advantage. It was June before she conceded.Post edited by Free on0 -
so true. speaking as a southerner... Hillary's victories here mean nothing in the general election. She wouldn't even carry Arkansas in the general.Free said:
I will vote on March 15th in NC and hope that Bernie will win our state. We did go for Obama in 2008. March 15th will be really interesting.livefootsteps.org/user/?usr=446
