    Just got an email from MoveOn.org (a group that has a lot of sway in the Democratic party) giving the results of a poll as to who MoveOn members want the organization to endorse for Democratic presidential candidate.

    "It's official: MoveOn members have voted to endorse Bernie Sanders for
    president. Now, with your help, we will mobilize and help him win.

    After more than 340,000 ballots were cast in a four-day membership
    vote, Bernie Sanders has earned our endorsement with an overwhelming 79%
    of votes cast, far more than the 67% threshold required for an
    endorsement. That's the best-ever performance of any presidential
    candidate in MoveOn's 17-year history.
    This vote was not only decisive, but participation was broad-based,
    with more ballots cast than any other endorsement vote in MoveOn's
    history."

    Nice!!

    Much more substantive debate than anything the Republicans have to offer.

    How can anyone vote for Hillary? The media and her "handlers" are getting VERY SCARED. She was trying to attack him on everything, really shows who she thinks is the front-runner.

    Would be very disappointed if PJ endorses her. They endorsed Nadar in 04'. They must see he is clearly the best choice.

    We have a Ben Carson and Donald Trump for president, hell even Hillary on the forums, but no Bernie Sanders? The man who actually cares about the people and who has a history of being in the right for the better part of 50 years. The man who walked with MLK, supported gay rights even when it wasn't popular. The man who wants to see healthcare as a right for the people & not a privilege. The man who wants to see the minimum wage become a living wage. The man who wants to re-establish Glass-Steagall, which would assure the demise of the big banks who put our country in a terrible recession. We can't have an untrustworthy Clinton, or radical tyrants like most of the GOP candidates running this country. Vote for Bernie! Let's enact real change in this country!

    I am excited and hope he can do it.I have faith.USA needs a real human being who cares for people.Someone who can lead the way to common sense change.He speaks the truth.I am so discouraged at the pathological, pyschopathy that is ever present in a large percentage of people seeking the most important job in the world.Bernie is not one of them.And that is refreshing.Hopefully he will continue to gain support.Iowa and NH are looking good!Cheers.

    New polls: Bernie 51%, Hillary 43%--Iowa, Bernie 60%, Hillary 33%, NH. Cut the gap to only down 9 points nationally. He wins the first two, things are going to snowball.

    Sad when people get upset when tax dollars go to helping the poor but nobody minds when millions of their tax dollars are used so the military can walk out during an NFL game.

    Well that's for recruitment and propaganda purposes. Very effective.

    Reminds me of 1969 while working for United Airlines cleaning airplanes with hair half way down my back. One of the mechanics yelled out, "Hey, we have a hippie working here!" Another came to my defense, "He's not a hippie, he's working."

    And as for those three photos, I would vote for two of the above. The other one... I saw a bumper sticker for: "Don't pull out a Dick in the middle of a screw/ vote of Nixon in 72". :lol:
