investigation. Because we have so much power. But the e-mail stuff will pale compared to the shenanigans of the Clinton

Accounts in 2008. Wall Street got bailed out and their CEOs got all the wage increases. But no one bailed out those of us who now have to work more years before we retire. And the ones who fund Hillary's campaign are the very ones who did it to us. So excuse me if I can't stomach the thought of voting for someone who protects them and not us. That's why she won't release her transcripts. She most assuredly blamed us instead of them. She will never get my vote. Neither will anyone who won't hold those fuckers accountable for the raping of our life savings.

Rather than half. If you want to place more blame for the financial crisis look to the congressional members who voted and passed the Commodities Futures Modernization Act, Sanders was one.

Promising to put people you may or may not know in jeopardy - no grandparents, parents, women, minorities, LGBT friends in your circle?

i wouldn't go traveling outside Merika home of the Free and seriously dumb.
If you do and someone asks you - who did you vote for .... lie!

A Washington politico, who introduced him to Hillary in the Lincoln bedroom. He is voting for Bernie and vows never to cast a vote for Hillary. I have a good friend who is transgendered. She is a staunch Republican. I have three daughters whom I love very much, for whom I went into ridiculous debt to get them through college, and whom I want to see do well financially...another reason I won't vote for Ms. Wall Street.

So, your attempt at playing the guilt trip card just doesn't work with me. Nice try.

And, lest I forget:

Adelson just pledged 100 million to Trump. If you are worried about power, accept Hilary's admitted wrong decision on emails and let FBI decision come out. More than that is republican talking point. Trump wants tax breaks for rich and won't put out taxes. I pay 22% rate at under 40000. I wish Goldman would ask me to talk.

It's about the not insane republicans who are upset with the Teabaggery in their party who came pouring into the Democratic party. Like most republicans they have a sense of entitlement, they believe that the party belongs to them and those who don't care for their agenda should get out. They are demanding that those who built the nest get the fuck out because they are taking over. So if the shitty DNC conservative candidate that was crammed down our throats loses, I guess you can blame me too for caring what direction my party is going.
