Clinton is corrupt

or how Stein and Johnson are also people that exist and want to be president.

You can also talk about other US elections like the senate and congress, but it's not like those actually matter, right?

sanders himself moved to declare hillary the nominee by unanimous consent, as clinton did for obama in 2008imagine it depends at what point he does that..

Sorry, I thought we had a democracy, so this is a shock knowing the American people officially don't have a voice. Excuse my naivete or ignorance. I'll continue the revolution through Brand New Congress and Bernie Sanders' new organization Our Revolution.
anyone else remember the Howard Dean movement?Kasparius on Jul 27 2016, 12:26:16 PM wrote:I don't understand why you don't listen to Bernie. You talk about helping him with Our Revolution (I am part of that, by the way) yet you refuse to understand what the reality of letting Trump win the election will do. With potentially 3 Supreme court justices if Clinton wins, plus all the progressives that Bernie will help get elected through his movement, we could actually get some amazing bills passed. Especially given the clout Bernie currently has within the democratic party.allisoncm on Jul 27 2016, 10:06:42 AM wrote:You could say the same thing about Hillary.

However none of that will be possible with a Trump presidency and things will be set back for years.
I don't understand how you, and others out there, do not understand that.
There will never be a "Revolution" in this country the way you want it. This country needs to be changed one law at a time, one bill at a time. This is something Sanders understands and has had to deal with his entire life. The fact that you and others are too thick to understand the realities of politics, even when your hero explains it to you, is truly baffling.
I guess the generation of "I want it now, or never" is truly as disgusting as they say.
are you talking Glorious Revolution? Velvet Revolution? or something more along the lines of the French and Russian Revolutions - we know what those were like.Kasparius on Jul 27 2016, 12:32:00 PM wrote:You clearly need to spend more time in this country.

Going back and moving old posts would have been a lot of work and there's no 'right' cutoff point, so I just decided everything from before I made the thread stayed there. I moved yours because they were posted after I made the thread, I'll move any others in the future, no singling out intended.xianjiro on Jul 28 2016, 02:39:10 AM wrote:thanks for moving my posts?

And also ruin everything Bernie worked for. He's getting progressives elected in various states through the democratic platform. That's going to be his real legacy.albajos on Jul 28 2016, 12:30:54 AM wrote:Jill Steinn actually invited Sanders to run with her, but that would of course divide the democratic votes and get Trump elected.
They should. If more Americans want Obama to stay rather than having either Clinton or Trump as their new president it's only fair if he stays on for another term (if he makes himself electable)xianjiro on Jul 28 2016, 01:39:32 AM wrote:repeal the twenty-second amendment!
Donald Trump claimed he was just being sarcastic when he said, “I will nuke China so hard if they don’t agree to this trade deal. You have no idea. Like huge mushroom clouds over Bejing. It will be the worst thing to hit them since Godzilla destroyed Tokyo.”
I agree, especially since it's an amendment that only came about in reaction to Roosevelt. It kind of makes sense in countries that have a history of democratic coups or other abuses of presidential power, but there's very little rational reason for term limits in the US.Noirville on Jul 28 2016, 08:45:04 AM wrote:They should.

Same goes for any other president or elected leader in any other democratic country. It's ridiculous that the 22nd amendment even exists
In that case perhaps Trump is a lesser risk for American people and the world, but really they would be better off with another candidateRich on Jul 28 2016, 10:25:02 PM wrote:Sanders really got to her. She has promised most of what he wanted except for universal health care.
yeah, but unfortunately it's his base that really likes to hear about building walls and keeping Muslims out, etc.Cippenham on Jul 28 2016, 11:49:01 PM wrote:Trump should talk more about his economic and tax policies, no one to,pay tax under 25000$ and with bands after that and low tax for businesses, this could create economic boom, certainly his tariffs on China are controversial, but good news for us in Britain and other countries as China would be keen for trade deals elsewhere if that happens. He needs to talk about more his economic policies and less about building a wall or other seemingly odd ideas, but would his ideas create more jobs?
Now let's see if she does an Obama on all those promises. Hopefully the pressure is great enough to force her to go against her donors about 10 % of the time. #IncrumentalChangeTrainRich on Jul 28 2016, 10:25:02 PM wrote:Sanders really got to her.
