    Can anyone tell me why Amy K. is still in it?
    Because out of all the candidates, she is by far and away the most successful legislator
    Sponsored or co-sponsored over 100 bills that have been passed

    Can anyone tell me why Bernie S is still in it?
    Specifically, how much successful legislation has he passed?


    You are posting things from a known racist and sexist. 

    You might want to remove that link.
    Is the content untrue?
    I've posted two videos on the topic in this very thread a few pages, pointing to it being a skewed view of the man's history.

    If people would have watched them, that question of yours would have not had to been asked.

    How many bills has Mayor "Kill your baby" Bloomberg passed?
    There's a thought in business that the way to stand out and secure the attention of the people around you isn't actually to talk more (where people will start to perceive arrogance and ego and question the authenticity of what you're saying), but to actually talk less so that you are only spending energy to share if you have something worth sharing. If you'd stop with GIFs referencing 20-year-old video games on political topics, maybe you'd have enough credibility remaining that when you have something substantial to share, people give it a chance?
    If people don't want to give it a chance, they don't have to. Their choice.

    (People referencing 20 year old video games are the best. More should do it)

    Thanks for the Amy responses. Guess it's all moot now that she's out. 

    Seems like were heading toward a moderate/progressive showdown within the democratic power. A true battle for the soul of the party.
    And really, that's how it should be. There's that much at stake. I hope Bloomberg goes by the waste-side after tomorrow (Liz surly will) and it's down to Biden and Sanders. Biden as the old guard of the Democratic Party versus......well Sanders is old himself....we'll call it a "different" guard of the Democratic Party.

    But my post might be spot on:

    Together as a presidential ticket? Or against each other on the WrestleMania 44 undercard?

    If trump wins there might not be an election in 2028 but an "election" instead.

    You are correct about it being readers' choices. I just would've thought someone as impassioned and concerned as you are, your effectiveness might be something that mattered to you, but apparently advancing your causes takes second place to being arrogant.

    How many bills has Mayor "Kill your baby" Bloomberg passed?
    given he was a mayor , i.e. executive branch, and not a legislator, I am going with none. He only signed or didnt sign legislation into law.....

    I would expect he put forth ideas that the council took up.....

    so whats your point?
    My point is: talking about bills passed is as narrow as reducing a vote for someone else than Bernie as solely a vote on M4A. It is pointless.





    And regarding him and bills:






    Seems to be a guy with character, and who doesn't throw staplers at people. What term did Pete steal from Obama for a speech.. "beacon of light" ? Maybe that is what he is.
    lol

    Why does everyone think the politicians they don't like are going to jail? I know Trump supporters who are convinced that Clinton, Obama, Holder, etc. are going to get dragged away in cuffs any day now.

    I don't see it as towing the line

    They're hitching up to the winner

    I expect we will see them both in Biden's cabinet
