    This is going to get interesting. The establishment vs the will of the people.

    Your system doesn't really suit a reformist type leader.

    Regardless, doubt he'll get elected, no charisma and too easy to scaremonger with the "crazy socialist" stuff.

    You don't need Sanders, you need a new political system!
    That's for damn sure.

    It's funny that people want to neg rep me on this site for stating obvious welfares and rights people in a first world country should have. Meanwhile:

    Just 18 percent of the vote came from 17- to 29-year-olds — down from a 22 percent share eight years ago. Among those, Sanders dominated, winning 84 percent to Clinton's 14 percent.
    Shits changing, your definition of first world country no longer applies. Deal with it you old shits.

    Maybe think about that when the people that cling to their guns and bibles decide that they've had enough of the left. Historically that doesn't end well.

    The conflation of Sander's policy platform with communism is an example of the great fraud that the right-wing perpetrates on the ordinary masses who have no clue how rigged the economic game is for the super rich in the US.

    Case in point is how hedge fund managers making billions only pay the dividend income federal tax rate on "carried interest", yet upper middle class workers at ordinary jobs pay almost twice that rate on marginal income at the top rate. So many middle and upper middle class Republican voters have been fooled by the political shills for the super rich for decades and have no fucking clue.

    I have changed my mind, the greatest thing ever would be Sanders narrowly missing nomination but feeling he has enough support to still win general election

    CAN YOU SAY 3RD PARTY RUN FOR PRESIDENT TO DESTROY THE ENTIRE ELECTION FOR THE LEFT!!

    That would be HILARIOUS, and Sanders with his delusional socialist utopia mindset might just be crazy enough to do it.

    Yeah he said he wouldn't, but that was before all the clueless millennials and their like started "rallying" behind their favorite communist in between snapchatting OMG WTF and hmu in between classes.

    VOTE SANDERS 16!!

    All that shows is that the Universities have been effective at brainwashing retarded college kids by indoctrinating them with a fairy tale like view of the world. Probably most of them have never had a job and still live at home with their parents, but they feel special because they now have a "cause."

    Whoever wins will have to deal with these liabilities sooner than they want to. Most Americans will feel the pain when these debts come due. Can't find the latest version of this chart.

    In all fairness he did say he was going to tax Wall Street... he hasn't really said exactly how. But those dudes have some coin.

    I don't get this... People talk about entitlements with a very negative connotation. They then group Social Security with Welfare and Medicare... How is Social Security the same as those things. 60 year old people put money into Social Security for decades and were told it was there for them when it was time to retire. Then Ultra conservatives act like they are asking for free money or lump it together with welfare which is literally just free money.

    If we want to ween off of social security I get it, but pay those people their money, they bought into the ponzi scheme early and deserve their money. The real issue is the high cost of Healthcare. That needs to be figured out quickly.

    You do know that people get social security that don't necessarily pay into it. For many decades the government has been putting IOU's into the trust fund in the form of bonds with low returns. The government then uses the money for other projects. The bonds have low returns and the amount of people who are drawing from the account is growing. The first person that got SSI didn't contribute but were given money that others put into it. That is why it is an entitlement because many don't put money into the program but take money out.

    This is true of every generation of young people. The universities aren't 'brainwashing" them, they are just kids trying to figure shit out for themselves. Eventually, they will get jobs, have a stake in society, and their views will change. So lets cut them a little break, at lest they are interested in something other than their social media accounts.

    How is a kid supposed to "figure things out" when he is constantly bombarded with one way of thinking? What happens in Universities is the same thing that happens within religious groups. You really think professors teach a balance between Left and Right ideas on campus? If you attend 99 percent of American universities, you are taught Leftist views. The only way you get away from it is if you are studying the sciences. The left wing views run so deep, and so fanatical, many republican speakers have bodyguards in the extremely rare times they are invited to speak.

    To be fair, liberalism has an intellectual bias.

    Republican to English translation
    These so called 'leftist views" are aka proven scientific facts.
    Cmoney you do realize your political views and the views of these "religious groups" are almost identical.

    Cmoney you're a nice guy, cut back on the FOX News and the right wing talk radio/websites. I'd hate to hear you got brainwashed by some right wing militant group like yall quaeda or the branch Davidians. jk
