DEBATE THREAD FOR BERNIE SANDERS GROUP PART #2

[dorkzilla]

We can start with awesomeness from Bernie on the email issue!

Bernie totally rocks.

[LiberalElite]

1. Angrychair started a part 2, too eom

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

2. Thank the Gods he didn't trip up on the Black Lives Matter question.

Should we continue here or go over to angrychair's thread?

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

3. Well, Webb just killed his chances of AA votes.

Talking about 'risking his political life' in response to a BLM question? Major faux pas.

[dorkzilla]

4. “That’s not true"

I love this man.

[JackInGreen]

5. I can't wait to see if (when)

There's a MASSIVE poll bounce.
Am I over optimistic?

[questionseverything]

6. break them up

omg she says...wallstreet cut it out...i'm sure that will work

[restorefreedom]

9. congress does not regulate wall street

wall street regulates congress

kick ass bernie!!!

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

7. Argh, I wish he wouldn't do the 'Bernie Sanders...' thing.

I really don't like people talking about themselves in the third person.

That's the second time so far, hope there is no third time.

[questionseverything]

8. wallstreet regulates congress

[dflprincess]

10. If I hear the phrase "God given potential" one more time I may scream

Look for it to be part of the next debate's drinking game.


(and when will someone break to Webb that he doesn't need more time - nobody cares about what he has to say.)

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

11. Heh. 'We've been blessed'. And 'we've worked hard all our lives'.

Pure prosperity gospel nonsense. The notion that they got enormously wealthy because God loves them. People work hard their entire lives and stay dirt poor too. And it's not because God hates them. It's because they're not in the 'old boys' network'. They didn't attend picnics with the Bushes decades ago.

[kath]

15. Same. jeebus H. Christ, cut out all the gawd crap. :-)

[glinda]

17. Lol

[questionseverything]

12. yes hc why cant we all have healthcare?

[questionseverything]

13. doesn't she get that college kids already are working to eat?

to pay their rent?

geesh

[F4lconF16]

14. See my post in the other thread.

Sanders has the college vote locked.

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

16. I had some probs, didn't catch the Latino question to Sanders and his reply

Something about something Bernie voted against? What was it?

[wundermaus]

18. Bernie is doing a great job...

Hilary may be getting more face time, but Bernie is landing more gloves on that face.
It would be nice if Bernie landed a knockout punch but as far as I am concerned, the match is over.
Decision to Bernie.
Well done.

[U of M Dem]

19. From an uninformed voter standpoint...

HRC likely sounds like she is naive / careless, consistently playing into the hands of Bushco and the rethuglicans in her effort to not sound complicit in the neoliberal policies she actually supports.

[LiberalElite]

21. Don't you know - she was just a fly on the wall nt

[dflprincess]

20. Okay, Hillary's response to how her presidency would not be a 3rd Obama term was about the lamest

thing I've heard all night.

Yes, Hill, we know you're a woman and the president is a man - we were looking for something a little less obvious.

[glinda]

32. Her response on Climate Change was not convincing. And why is she getting

More time and longer time?

[kath]

42. And she keeps talking after being told MULTIPLE times that her time is up. Terrible.

[glinda]

49. yup....favoritism? NAWWWWWWW!

[Babel_17]

22. The hard questions for Sanders have been asked, honestly answered ...

The hard questions for Sanders have been asked, honestly answered, and now the horror of the unknown is gone.

His main opponent has not really gotten a handle on the issues that will continue to haunt her. Some od these issues are only starting to unfold as to their true import.

Sanders was a ship that never had to take such a public broadside. He is showing himself to be an Old Ironsides. The hits leave a mark but he looks all the more impressive for having been through the test of fire. Secretary Clinton has shown she can take a hit, over, and over, and over. It's impressive in its way, but the damage is having an effect and I see her campaign as listing from it.

[glinda]

23. Doesn't Sanders have a longer record than Hill?

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

27. Last I checked, quite a bit.

She did what, 1 term as a Senator and 1 term as SoS?

Bernie was a mayor, 8 term Representative, and in his second term as a Senator.

[glinda]

36. He needs to expose that.

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

24. Hah!

I'm not wanting anyone to vote for me based on my last name...

True, because 'Clinton' is about as yawnworthy as 'Bush' to American voters these days.

[LiberalElite]

28. Won't a lot of people NOT vote for her

based on her last name?

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

29. A lot of people will make sure they hit the polls to vote AGAINST a Clinton.

She's about as good a draw for Republicans as getting anti-gay measures on the ballot.

[LiberalElite]

31. They'd have a record turnout

and we'd have just the opposite.

[840high]

33. Yep

[glinda]

25. Is Omalley sounding like a salesman?

[glinda]

26. Web just dug his grave and buried hisself with coal.

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

30. Dammit, my audio is getting broken up off and on now, missing a fair amount of what people are sayin

g. grrrr

[SoapBox]

34. Try Bernie2016.tv

Their YouTube has been running well.

https://m.

[Babel_17]

35. Works! :) Thanks! (nt)

[MrMickeysMom]

48. FANTASTIC!

You guys do wonderful broadcasting.

And, BTW, who are these wonderful women who did the Bernie video at the end of the broadcast?

[glinda]

37. OMG Ivanka Trump. CNN interview. Eek!

[Gregorian]

38. Webb: "I killed a guy."

[cui bono]

39. WTF??? What a weird answer from Webb about having killed someone.

[LiberalElite]

40. Webb doesn't seem to have many recent references eom

[glinda]

41. I feel sorry for him.

[cui bono]

43. Yeah, he's just so out of place.

I bet he drops out within a week.

[LiberalElite]

44. He seems a bit like time has passed him by nt

[cui bono]

45. Yeah, and he actually seemed old compared to everyone else.

I don't know how old he is but he seemed older.

[kath]

46. Hrc talking about her mother again.gah!

[glinda]

47. Hillary set the tone of Her closing statement with the impression of

"Boredom" with the other candidates. Unprofessional imho. Wolf and others butt kissing.
