And you Think Harris or Booker would appeal better to them? 

Probably? I don’t see why not. Bernie couldn’t get that group voters during the primaries, what makes you think he’ll win them over now?

He is far left in American politic spectrum. 

You can't really compare it to other countries. US has always been on the right and your whole economy revolves around it. In my country Bernie would be consider center/center-right and his policies would be more relevant. But for the US I think it's not realistic yet, it would be too sudden

I dunno maybe in terms of regulations? Cuz in terms of taxes they don't have the lowest.

 

Even with Trumps tax cuts for wealthy and Trudeau's tax hikes for rich here's a comparison:

 

Canada Corporate Taxes: 15% 

USA Corporate Taxes: 21% (35% before)

 

Canada Top income bracket: 33% (29% before)

USA Top Income Bracket: 35% (39% before)

 

Canada Small Business Tax: 9%

USA: 13.3% (effective tax rate after loopholes, couldn't find the base rate)

 

Both Countries have loopholes which make actual taxes lower and the US probably has more loopholes but my point is they are not that low on taxes. Maybe it's the huge military they must pay for :rip:

She really was...as far back as the early nineties, when she settled on CHIP because that's all that they could get through. Hillary was realistic enough to know that continuing Obamacare was of utmost importance at this current time. She also knew that too much, too soon, causes backlash and sends the political trends in the other way. Progress is slow and something as complicated as the healthcare system is going to take decades to reform. 

Precisely what I mean :nick:

She's pragmatic and sensible enough to map out the small steps it'll take to get to those goals rather than shooting for them (and failing resulting in getting nowhere) immediately.

Whimsical bitch

Isn't he the guy who let 2 women take over his speech? Imagine thinking he can run the only superpower in the world.

What a joke.
