Bernie  

Such a mistake to choose Hillary over him. I know he'll be 79 by 2020, but I still hope he is in good health and runs . I'm also interested in Tulsi Gabbard, Cory Booker, and Jesse Ventura is my wild card . Former Navy Seal, pro wrestler, actor, bodyguard to the Rolling Stones, author and Governor of Minnesota; he's a real badass. His campaign was low-budget but he was charismatic and honest, and did a great job as Governor, plus he still speaks out very truthfully on politics and I think he would be a great President. Especially for those who are sick of phony, pandering politicians.

[After Reagan/Bush]: "C'mon guys, we have to vote the lesser of two evils"

You know what, you're right. We'll do it!

[4 Years Later]: "Guys, we need to just stop the Republicans, and just vote the lesser of two evils."

Yeah, I guess you're right

[4 Years Later]: "Listen, its not perfect, but it should be enough. We have to vote the lesser of two evils."

Alright, if you say so.

[4 Years Later] "C'mon guys, we can't have this moron Republican in office. Yeah, our guy isn't perfect. But we can SAFELY say that HE'S THE LESSER OF TWO EVILS!!"

Yeah, you're right I suppose. But, man, I dunno.

[4 Years Later]: "Alright let's feel great about ourselves. We definitely need to wipe the past 8 years off, lets change things for real!"

What a relief. Easy choice.

[4 Years Later]: "I know things haven't been going the way we had hoped. But we can CLEARLY deduce that the other guy is very evil, and therefore its easy to choose."

Alright. I still feel a little good about it. But I sense a pattern here.

[4 Years Later]: "Guys, you just need to be quiet and stop complaining, and think about the big picture here. We're voting the lesser of two evils. Got it?"

W-wait a minute. There's definitely a pattern going on here. Maybe we need to be more proactive here-

"NO!. Lesser of two evils. Don't you get it?"

The truth

In this picture you can see Bernie Sanders getting arrested for protesting school segregation. He also marched to MLKs "I have a dream" speech in the 60s. Voted against the Iraq War, voted against the Patriot Act, more than 34 years of elected public service, and refuses corporate donations.

What was Ms Clinton doing? As a young Republican volunteering for a senator (Barry Goldwater 1964 Presidential campaign) who opposed and voted against the Civil Rights Act. She voted for the Iraq War and the Patriot Act.

I love this pic, thank you for posting this

A Jewish Socialist would have lost by a much larger margin. I know the misogyny is huge (I'm female) but looking back and saying you think Bernie could have done better is precisely the kind of misogyny women encounter every day. They're already trying to erase Hillary after endorsing her. Disgusting.

Do you honestly believe that a self-described socialist, agnostic, Jewish heritage New England candidate is more appealing to white supremacist rural America? 

 

 

Your posts seem very antisemitic.

Definitely one of my heroes, very rarely are politicians so inspiring and authentic like this.

[Eighteen 5,430]

this is a bad argument because the choice WASN'T BAD with hillary when you weed out all the noise, it's just that people were really uninformed by bad intel, bad conclusions. when you look at the policies of DT and HRC, what would you choose, that is what it boils down to. young people need to be smarter than this.

edit:

i also don't know if bernie would have won even without the interference of the DNC. the fact is older voters saw bernie as idealistic and clinton as pragmatic. come on people we lived through this, think back to just a few months ago for goodness sake.

Having a President based on gender was more important than a focus on real issues, real values, and real change. In fact, Sanders positions are more in line with Noam Chomsky.

 

Stop it you monster @Leaf 

All your comments are perfect

Swastikas are being spray-painted all over buildings a day after the election. I understand that Bernie was populist but it's naive to think that Americans would accept him while they are waving Nazi flags from their homes. 

I wanted Bernie to win the primary. But the racism and sexism in this country is already being underscored.

If it makes you feel better, while he is avoiding talk of 2020, he has said that he won't rule out a run in 2020. I think he's gonna do it. #FeelTheBernAgain

Being pragmatic is part of the reason we lost. Nobody wants that anymore. "The way its always been" no longer works anymore.

yes, but to be pragmatic is to understand how the government works. you have a congress that is half republican, do you think anything could get done when idealistic policies are so far away from theirs, all the way to the left? no, they would be compromised on, and in the end the policy coming out would be pragmatic, so what's the difference?
