don't forget farmers. He torpedoed them in the free market but then good old american socialism for them after that. Here's the thing, all Trump does is fearmonger. Doesn't matter who the opponent is. So that's why it doesn't matter what Bernie is. Bernie is great at connecting with the voters and making them believe. That's what is needed not some republican-lite middle ground bullshit candidate. Someone who can inspire people is more important than appealing to the the middle ground.

And what does it cost? More than the regressive policies are already costing? It might cost billionaires.... but they're a teenie tiny minority.

I've seen polls showing bernie polls best vs. Trump. Biden is a worse candidate than hillary. Mark my words if the Democrats insist on trying to play the moderate hand it will backfire. The republicans are fighting a war, you need some extreme opposition. That's what the people want.

If Biden winds up with the nomination then it's a full on republican dictatorship for the united states.

That and a good old heapin' helpin' of old fashioned racism.

oh who isn't Carruthers friends with?

People actually believed that the NDP were the ones who made the oil and gas jobs leave. Jokes on them, Kenney and his assholes are worse job creators than Rachel Notley was. But hey the cronies are getting more cash in their pockets so mission accomplished.

I want Jason Kenney removed from Alberta.

BUT HER EMAILS!

I am advanced for my age.

Choose between a better social safety net, affordable healthcare, a more equitable system or racism... there is no middle ground let's not kid ourselves. The oligarchy in the US has dragged everything to the right that their cries for the middle ground are still right wing ****. Trump might want Bernie, but I think anyone else is an easier target because the people of the US want change. It's the entire reason trump himself got elected. He was different than other politicians. As for Russia, they want Bernie cause they want chaos and the democratic party imploding on itself is good for chaos, and that might happen if Bernie wins.

I completely disagree with your take. That is the hope of the corporate media whose owners don't want to actually have to pay taxes. Bernie is the best at engaging people of all the candidates. He is strong at messaging and won't get sucked into trying to not offended anyone. Yeah he's old as **** and that's a negative, but the guy had built a following. He's got support for a reason. It's the same reason there is a faction that supports trump no matter what. He tells them what they want to hear. Except in Bernie's case it's not racism but things that will actually help people.

The rich need to be eaten quite frankly.

Quit living in the past

Is it a vocal minority when the guy is consistently winning polls? The establishment democrats and corporate owned media want you to believe sanders is too extreme,but people support his positions overwhelmingly.

Their evidence is suspect at best. Too many variables to be proven. And I'll have you know my only contribution on Friday nights is sweeping. Can't throw for **** this year.

When everything is a hole, nothing is a hole.

It's all bullshit. The ******* old people in friday mixed buy into it too and it's poppycock. Even if it does have that much impact the light dusting the old fogeys do won't move any impact at all.

The Democratic party is fighting tooth and nail against the "loony left" it's the grassroots trying to make it happen.

There's the problem right there. To make it as a smaller guy you have to be really standing out above everyone else cause size always works against you.

**** the Riders and their fans. Most over rated team going. Flat out lucky to win as many games as they did and when fajardo comes crashing back to earth I will enjoy every minute of it. Plus we are sure to get some great Jason Maas meltdowns.

but hey on the plus side, it's Maui. Nothing is ever really that bad there.

yeah but there is no centre party in the US. There is right wing and crazy religious fundamentalist authoritarian. Bernie is actually the middle ground in the States. Republicans have been dragging things so far to the right down there it's laughable.

I told you before, every Democrat is a socialist in the campaign. They tried to appeal to moderates with hillary, it didn't work. Need to appeal to progressives cause people are sick of the same old same old politicians
