Bernie Sanders for President

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!

    Same difference? Semantics? Dunno.

    Anyway, been wondering if he'll venture into Independent territory and if so, the ripple-effects.

    I cannot vote, but I wanted a sticker because I like him. It arrived yesterday. Now where to put it.

    They can't all have reality TV star power, and it's hard to reach the ignorant masses without a little racism in your speeches.

    I don't think he will have to. Look, he's more liberal than Hillary(A lot more) and she's a "Dem" so I think that speaks volumes. He has to run as a Dem, because people automatically vote for Repub/Dem, So he has to give himself a chance in that respect.

    He's a Democratic Socialist. And he's a joke? Have you not seen all the polls with him Beating Trump and Carson in a general election? He fairs better than Hillary against them.

    If he doesn't get the Dem Nomination, he could run as an Independent in the general, and still pull millions of votes, but I don't think it'll come to that.

    Just saying it could go either/any way. Could fuck him in the end (see Perot, Nader), but for me, in terms of voting, I tend to go with gut vs. party.

    Don't forget Jill Stein, not Independent, but the same principal.

    Why wouldn't I? I look at a candidates ideas and plans, and I *try* not to make a boogeyman out of the words the precede the name. Republicans make it very hard to do, they are just a hair shy of mental retardation nowadays, but I try. I would vote for Bernie over anyone else running. He wants to return our economic policy to the way it was when America was strongest, during the 40's, 50's and early 60's. What's the joke with that?
    Oh, right, that's the period when McCarthy went full-on lunatic on everyone and the country lurched to the right and into economic trouble ever since.
    And still to this day people are running around yelling "socialist" like it's the worst abomination in existence. People who work in unions no less lol. That's the joke, right there.

    Duely noted.

    Btw, I am only in a Union cause we have 2 be in a Union. I would luv for my group to negotiate our contract w/o a Union backing.

    Bernie is awesome. I don't think he can beat Hillary but we would be well off with him in the White House.
