    If she becomes POTUS will Kim Jong Un and his regime all receive a free copy of some self-help book under their chairs?

    not sure how he is listed, I would say a democratic shill, a fraud, someone even called him a hoar on a number of occasions.
    in any event I think Janes fraud thingy may get in the way.

    Does he believe that private companies have any control of any portion of the economic system or should government have all control?

    I will admit to not paying the guy much attention, but I have never heard him discuss the free market in a positive fashion.

    You're right, you haven't been paying any attention. No, Sanders is not a Communist, lol.

    Yes it is, and it's making me feel awkward and embarrassed just as an observer. It's just ridiculous. Almost pathetic.

    Don't know, but if it is a small percentage then it is a very vocal small percentage.

    He acknowledges the failures of the free market (which aren't deniable by anyone who looks at it objectively), but understands that it is the system under which we all operate right now, so his views are about how to make things better for everyone while under the weight of a failing, phony-ass, fixed free market system that now exists. Anyone who claims that the "free market" is working well for everyone in its current form or that it could work as Libertarians imagine it is in severe denial, so not only Bernie Sanders thinks this. That is why he essentially talks about a compromise between socialism and capitalism (which is, IMO, the most doable scenario when you're not dealing with a bunch of brainwashed capitalists or fanatical commies). It's not an all or nothing situation, and he knows it because he's not an idiot. Anyway, if you actually care about what Bernie Sanders thinks, you should get plenty of info from all perspectives (good and stupid) if you just google "Bernie Sanders and the free market" or just read up on his platform. Or just read up about how countries like Denmark and Sweden and Norway function, because that is close to what he supports, and those are not communist countries, obviously, and they still have a free market within a more socialist framework. Supply and demand is still a thing, but the distribution of wealth is much better through regulation and more equality in access to programs that improve the nation as a whole is an ideal supported through taxation (with good results FWIW - people in such countries are MUCH happier and more satisfied with their medical and education systems and their childcare options than Americans are, and their quality of life is higher too).

    What you are agreeing with? I'm not seeing very many people think this is a good idea, for exactly the reason it points out. No one on here was all that keen, either.

    Yeah, I agree.  The majority of "Democrats" I know think it is a turrible idea and that she has no qualifications other than "money".  Other than the brief media 'blitz' pumping this up, I haven't seen one person who is actually in favor.

    I said it to someone else yesterday, but in 3 years, if I am looking at a Presidential ballot and need to choose between Donald Trump and Orcha Windbag, I am going to seriously look into emigration for my family.

    I think a ton of people think this is a good idea, if the internet and the news and random people talking is any indication (no McGruff, that doesn't mean everyone ;) ). I actually just had a conservative (in Canadian terms, so probably still left to Americans, lol) say to me " i like her enough to vote for her... but i'd need to listen to her policies first ...." My response was, "what policies? She doesn't have any, she's a TV mogul". :lol:

    So what about all the millions of Americans who are babbling about it then? Obviously there are plenty of Americans who think this is a good idea, whether you know them or not.
