At least they get out and vote every single election unlike the young who can't be bothered.

than not voting and I have zero patience for those who don't get their freeking pony so decide the supreme court, women's rights and the planet just don't matter. Don't ever try that pathetic argument with me - it's a argument for losers.

Directly call me a loser without getting a hidden post.

But you did get one thing right. I'll be glad Bernie gets your vote when your pony Hillary loses the primary.

See you next November!

you have a persecution complex - just like fox news. I called anyone who doesn't vote if their candidate doesn't win a loser. Is that your position? That you're going to crap on everyone who already did a lot of fighting for you - for civil rights, for women's rights by not voting? That would make you a loser.

Which is why I would never disrespect those who came before me - my grandma went to jail for fighting for unions, my dad worked with Dr. King - so many hard fought battles that were fought so those who came later could enjoy the benefits. This 20-something generation are the most self involved, entitled people I've ever seen - they need to show they appreciate all the battles that came before them and that they understand that compromise is sometimes the only way to move ahead.

under 50.

Democrats 39%, Republican 35%, Independent 16%

And according to this one poll, Bernie's number has risen 15%.

And Sanders hasn't made a single stop in Florida, nor a HQ or staff.
IDK if he can beat Clinton in Florida, but he'll continue to gain.

not once, but TWICE! Not surprised they would like Hillary - at the moment - until they meet Bernie. He'll enlighten them.

when Sanders starts talking about increased SS and Single Payer health care . Then lets look at the polls . I think that lead HC has will shrink even more .

To know Bernie is to love Bernie! Once they know him and his platform, his numbers will only go up.

pay for it all. I'm interested in that myself. And if someone posts taxing the wealthy, I'm going to scream because that wouldn't come close to paying for it.

but to win the general election Dems have to win states that elected the likes of Rick Scott, Scott Walker, and a slew of others that won midterm elections in 2010 & 2014.
