What in Sam Hill do you think there exists any similarity to the ideas of an avowed socialist and individual freedom and liberty?I see you are so very deep in the bag for Sanders..1. Because the Dems don't want to encourage their own Populist Rebels any more than is necessary before the Anointing at the ConventionWell, why aren't they? They weren't challenged at the debates. They aren't challenged by the press. The GOP doesn't bring them up. I don't get it.
2. Because the Dems want to maintain the illusion of a united facade for as long as they can to the greatest extent they can
3. Because the Pubs want Bernie to win - knocking out Hillary, whom they consider more difficult to beat
4. Because - if Bernie wins the nomination - the Pubs will wait until AFTER the Anointing at the Convention, and THEN pounce on his policies like flies on shit
Illusion and Timing are all, from one vantage point or another...
Sounds like they haven't thought it out very well.
Are you one of those who really believe that Bernie Sanders is going to be able to get your all that free shit he's talking about?
If so, why do you even want free shit? What makes you believe you are special and not required to earn your way like everyone else?
I support Sanders, because I'm first and foremost a civil libertarian. There aren't any other candidates left who are good on civil liberties.
The "rainbows and pixie dust" isn't going to get passed. Neither would Hillary's proposals. The GOP candidates proposals might, and all of them are terrible.
Like most Americans, I vote for my interests. The Republicans are hostile to my business interests. Hillary is lukewarm on that issue.
As far as eligibility, it would only be a concern if the GOP could produce a viable General Election candidate. They don't have any. They are far-right, authoritarian, woman hating extremists, who can't win outside the South and the Great Plains.
