a LOT of good on the consumer safety front before his actions in 2000 helped to usher in W. Bernie has accomplished nothing comparable during his many years in Congress.

A history of great words and few actual accomplishments.

Some say the need to "feel something" is also part of the reason for the epidemic of self-cutting. Just sayin'.

"feel" is disappointed, disgusted and very glad that I have never wavered in my support for HRC in 2016.

And, Hillary sure as hell didn't vote for nader who brought us W.

with other dignitaries besides communist leaders.

It's as if Sanders doesn't socialize much with his peers. And that comports with what others say about him.

I honestly question his "people" skills.

VRA gutted, Citizens United that Bernie rants about now, vote suppression laws in historically anti-PoC States, attacking the PPACA so people in Republican-dominated States are being discriminated against (which is a problem of their own making since they continue to vote Republican), the humongous Fed deficit, thanks to tax cuts for the rich that Republicans in the House refuse to repeal, etc., etc.

I hope those Naderites are proud of themselves. They certainly haven't learned their lesson since 2000.

OTOH, since 2000, Al Gore single handedly brought the issue of climate change to the mainstream which resulted in the treaty signed in Paris.

The man they demonized in 2000 has done more for progressives than their hero, Nader.
