Do you agree with Bernie Sanders?

[Playinghardball]

I sure do!!



From Occupy Democrats

[tularetom]

1. Almost all the time

[daleanime]

12. Definitely....

a lot of the time.

[Kalidurga]

2. Yes

and we would be in full recovery if Obama hadn't been obstructed every step of the way.

[orpupilofnature57]

5. Gotta +1000 on that !!!!!!!!

No lobbyist need try to lobby my administration, and he hires Wall street . More transparency, more clandestine arrangements have been EXPOSED than any other time in history, More War even though we would be gone two years ago, Change for the worse .

[Snotcicles]

3. I'd be a liar if I said no. nt

[retrowire]

4. Completely.

And that's a first!

[orpupilofnature57]

6. 110%

[tazkcmo]

7. Plus Republican Obstruction. n/t

[WillyT]

8. Yep...

[gregcrawford]

9. I agree with bernie 99.999% of the time...

... but I disagreed with his position on deploying the F-35 in Burlington, and I guaran-fuckin'-tee he will come to regret that decision. It's the most expensive garbage can in military history that can't fly at night or in bad weather. Pilots hate the damned thing, claiming it flies like a Winnebago with wings, when it flies at all, and the face guard display is dangerously disorienting.
Other than that, it's great.

[Still In Wisconsin]

40. I have a buddy who used to fly F-16s in the ANG

He's retired and not flying fighters any more, but he says everyone he knows tells him the F-35 is a turd with wings.

[AOR]

10. Sanders should be completely distancing himself...

from the neoliberal policies of Barack Obama. This is not helpful in the least. The majority of the working class and the poor continue to suffer great economic hardship under Barack Obama's leadership. If Bernie Sanders is trying to create a new narrative and a dramatic shift from the utterly destructive policies of the current Democratic Party and the President this is in no way helpful. This is business as usual status quo nonsense.

[Martin Eden]

11. It makes sense in terms of RW strategy

The overriding strategy of rightwing politicians, pundits, talking heads, and media has been -- for decades -- to keep repeating their false narratives over and over and over again so that it slowly but surely affects public perception.

Fact don't matter. The truth doesn't matter. Sticking to the script is what matters.

They get away with it because the corporate media is a for-profit business with essentially no commitment to the responsibilities of the Fourth Estate and most of the public doesn't know any better.

[JDPriestly]

13. Excellent point!

[PatrickforO]

14. I agree with Bernie over 95% of the time

[Skittles]

15. did I read somewhere that Jeb has made 29 million bucks during that "slow recovery"?

Jeb is an asshole

[Spitfire of ATJ]

16. Republicans are acting like it's their TURN though.

[WoodyM90]

17. As one who grew up

in the Great Depression when FDR was president I can remember gathering around the radio, often with many of the neighbors, to listen to him as he spoke to the nation. Lo, these many years since, how I have longed to hear a presidential candidate speak the words Bernie is saying.

[appalachiablue]

37. Many thanks to you who lived through these times to write of remembering FDR's speeches

and how his powerful concern for the people and nation have been largely absent among leaders until now with Sanders. My Mom speaking of FDR so proudly especially when dad was in Germany during WWII I will always remember.

"This campaign is catching fire for a simple reason, and the simple reason is we are telling the truth". ~ Bernie Sanders.

Bernie Sanders, The Real Deal!

[Thespian2]

18. K & R

I agree with Bernie...Jeb is a criminal POS like the other members of his family (read their history)...Obama has his own problems, see TPP and TTIP...

[cantbeserious]

19. Very True

eom

[peacebird]

20. Totally!

[Alkene]

21. Yarp n/t

[olddots]

23. trash talk is in the mind of the something or other .......

[smokey nj]

24. This group is for supporters Bernie Sanders. Your post is inappropriate in this group.

Hillary supporters trash all the time. Democrat site? Really?

[ybbor]

26. Didn't even catch the "Democrat" site BS

Can you say troll?

[marym625]

32. Great block, my dear

judging from the hides, number of posts and this particular post, looks like mirt should get involved

[ybbor]

25. I would support Elizabeth Warren whole-heartedly...

But I do not support Hillary. She does not represent me at all. Bernie and Elizabeth support the working people, while HRC is totally in bed with Wall Street, and supports their agenda over mine.

Say what you will, but I am positive that if Sen. Warren had declared it would have been a dog fight amongst her and Bernie's followers. With the winner being overwhelmingly supported by the other's followers. Hillary, not so much.

[CharlotteVale]

30. +1

[Bjorn Against]

27. No one made any snide comments about Hillary in this thread

Hillary was not even mentioned in this thread until you showed up. This was a positive thread about Bernie until you decided to come in and talk trash. And you know what makes that especially ironic? You scolded us for being trash talkers when not a single person talked trash except for you. That is called projection.

[smokey nj]

28. Projection and transference, it's what's for dinner.

[appalachiablue]

38. Many thanks for all you do smokey, it really matters a lot. Trying to keep it honest & suceeding!

[smokey nj]

42. Thanks, appalachiablue. I try.

[fbc]

29. Bernie will call republicans out when he is president!

none of that DLC lovey dovey shit

[marym625]

31. Almost always do!

[rhett o rick]

33. Has H. Clinton ever called out the Bush Administration? nm

[DrewFlorida]

34. I love Bernie Sanders pragmatic, tell the truth substance and style.

[gordianot]

35. Jeb Bush is a cartoon caricature of all the clumsy stupid qualities it takes to be a Bush.

After his brother it is alarming that anyone would consider, promote or vote for this particular Bush incarnation.

[Moostache]

36. Another reason that I love this man as a candidate...

He says a lot without actually having to personally attack his opponents.

What is left unsaid (but clearly implied) is that Jeb has the same set of "advisors" lined up to bring back the Bush43 cabinet and policies across the board.

While Bernie campaigns on fairness, peace and responsibility, his rivals like JEB are running on a "return to the 2000's" platform of disparity, war and devil-may-care policies on damn near everything.

Its so rare to see a real, adult, responsible candidate that it makes me proud to be a supporter of Sanders no matter what.

[ChiciB1]

39. He's MY Guy... Why Can't We Do This?? Well, It Seems

MSM and TPTB will be doing everything they can to STOP him. All we can do to overcome this is to PUSH BACK and show up at his rallies to show support. I live in a very small home and would love to host an event for him. My local Democratic Party is already pushing Hillary. Live in a very, very RED County so feel I'm spitting in the wind.

If there is an event here I'm willing to go and do what I can. I have already bought bumper stickers and shirts. Maybe my advertisement in this way will help!

GO BERNIE!

[rock]

41. Yep

An easy target.

[merrily]

43. It doesn't make sense to Bernie and it doesn't make sense, period.

[Eleanors38]

44. Why, yes I do.

[onethatcares]

45. oh yeah

oh yeah again.
