Bernie Sanders (I) open to 2016 Presidential run

[Indeependent]

I don't agree 100% with Bernie Sanders but I listen to his weekly one hour visit with Thom Hartmann; I don't agree on Universal Health Care.
Bernie is honest and knowledgable and gives a clear explanation of every callers question.
I'd vote for him because voting for almost anybody else is a wasted vote vis-a-vis the future of the US.

This could be what starts the change, though. He runs independent, splits the dem vote most likely. The GOP runs one, so does the TPM.

I mean, does the TPM have to be declared a party before they can run someone? What if Ron Paul had run as something other than GOP? Honestly, he probably would have gone much further than he did.

Stalin had it right - Sanders 2016!


See, I'm helping you with slogans!

How about - America needs Pol Pot, Bernie Sanders delivers!

Y'know? The more you lot shows your ass from the hard right, the more those of us who are leaning moderate retreat left.

But that's cool, right? You want the pure party. Everybody that disagrees with you is a RINO, and everybody beyond them really ought to be returned to their home country.

Mine is Finland. Go ahead and ship me back.

Yeah, you're real moderate...

Hell, if Sanders will run, I'll send him a donation - really!

A cold war Stalinist can be more fun than a basket full of Naders....

 

[TakeAStepBack]

Ship yourself back. it's not our responsibility to pay your travel expenses. See? This is one of the main disagreements between the right (which I'm happy tto find is actually leaning more libertarian than ever in my lifetime) and the left.

One wants others to do their work, and one wants others to take responsibility for themselves and stop demanding someone else do their work.

I hope this helps.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Sanders will never be President. And a vote for Sanders is a wasted vote.

Why do you hate democracy in action

Thanks for all the thread bumps. I don't know what any of you are saying, since rabies are contagious so you've all been quarantined. But I do appreciate the assist on keeping the thread current.

That's not his problem.

Bernie is a fine chap.

But all he has to do is go on Meet the Press.

And say he's a Socialist..which he would.

Done.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Bernie needs to speak the truth to power

He needs to say that Democrats are Socialists only he's gutsy enough to admit it

He's a Socialist based on what positions?
Be specific as I do not look forward to living in a country overwhelmingly controlled by any given level of government.

 

[TakeAStepBack]

Bernie is a self proclaimed socialist. He's the only one in congress (that Im aware of) with the guts to admit it.

 

[RoadVirus]

Just what we need...another 4 years of socialism.

 

[whitehall]

How do independents get funded? Maybe the deep pockets of secret socialists?

Yeah, DNC super PACs.

 

[TheShinyOne]

Bernie Sanders? Nope. Sarah Palin can beat that guy easy. Democrats aren't that stupid.

 

[Zander]

I disagree with Sanders on just about every issue. But he is his own man. I respect that. I hope he runs.

He's a socialist based on that's what he calls himself.

Sheesh..you ever bother to listen to the guy?

Bernie Sanders? Nope. Sarah Palin can beat that guy easy. Democrats aren't that stupid.

That..I doubt.

Sanders is 72 years old. He'll be lucky if he's still breathing in 2016.

Don't let that stop you. Bernie is a healthy, energetic fellow and all he needs is one term to effect the changes needed to put this Nation back on track.

I'm 77, so I know from my own example that Bernie's age will serve the interests of the People because seniors like us are not receptive to the temptations that corrupt and distract younger men.

Do yourself and your Country a favor -- support Bernie and vote for him. He's the best we've got!
