Listen closely, and this is what they will tell you, Sanders advised. They want to give more tax breaks to millionaires and billionaires at a time when the rich are getting much richer. Essentially, when you watch that debate, just imagine if you are one of the wealthiest people in this country and extremely greedy and selfish, and you're going to have 10 candidates more or less talking about your needs and not the needs of the working people.

(6 posts)1. next Sunday Portland, OR Bernie appearance moved to larger venue
Guess the RSVPs surprised everyone. Originally set for Memorial Coliseum (capacity 12,000). Now happening at the Moda Center (home of the Blazers - capacity 19,000).
Should be some nice photo ops for media types.

yet the poor republican voters watching the debate will hope that all the candidates' millions will rub off onto them.
One needs to tell voters that the multimillion dollar candidates will do nothing for them.

did it all the time and made posters here scream that he was lying when he actually was not speaking about us, the have-nots, at all.

DWS message wasn't as focused as Sanders, but the combined message supports the meme.
