Bernie Sanders
Related: About this forumIt's a real puzzler (not): Bernie has "no chance" of winning the nomination...
Yet; I read at least 10 comments a day insisting that he should drop out now.
It's laughable that they think we don't realize what is really happening here.

(2,603 posts)Can you imagine the outrage if Hillary loses again! With so many advantages to still have the ability to lose at this point alone is an outrage to some.
An outrage!

(95 posts)I have been trying very hard to convince Bernie supporters to vote for Hillary in the general, in the likely scenario that she is the nominee. Hillary supporters need us people in the Bernie group, or at least a significant amount of us, to vote for her in the general. These types of comments do not help the democratic party's chances of winning this November.
So, most sincerely, fuck off.

(6,002 posts)What are your core values?
Are you in favor of TPP? If so, explain your support.
Are you a fan of US military adventures to destabilize the middle east?
Did you support Gulf Wars I and II?
Do you support KXL?
Are you willing to go on the record with actual positions?

(57,936 posts)should support Bernie and his promise to break up the big banks, pass into law a modern version of Glass-Steagall and reform our financial sector by, among other things, instituting real regulation of that sector.
If you represent homeowners who have lost their homes, you know the kinds of tricks that were used, the efforts mortgage lenders used to sell mortgages to unqualified buyers in a market that the mortgage lenders practices had pushed into a boom so that borrowers borrowed far more money than their houses were worth.
Bernie is the only candidate who will help homeowners to avoid foreclosure in the future.
I could explain this in more detail if you don't understand my post, but it is getting late now. Just let me know if you want me to explain more clearly what I am talking about.

(1,523 posts)You think those issues are only for privileged people? Every single one of those issues will affect every American somewhere down the line. Especially the fact that you think that our wars in the Middle East is a privilege issue is very sad. Our wars in the Middle East has caused the raise of ISIS and hundreds of thousands of deaths. How about the members of our military who have died, been injured, or who are suffering from PTSD? People who have to go on multiple rotations to a war zone. Still think it is a privileged issue to care about?

Maybe even Evangelical christians, like the preacher who compared him to John. the Baptist. Now another famous saint is evoked. As you said, MANY people look for signs. Even otherwise rational folks.
Such a sweet thing! Little bird. ✨💛💫

Bernie supporters recognize propaganda, so their words fall on deaf ears.
