Just to be clear: despite all my criticisms of Bernie, if he wins I will volunteer for his campaign without hesitation.
Dirt.... so your only going to work for him if he wins.... what about right now?
My son, as we speak, is calling folks on behalf of Bernie.... on my dime!!!!!!!!!! he wants Bernie to win primaries and not just jump on a bandwagon.
Locker.... If we didn't have a MF law breaking president and att gen running protection...Hillery would be indicted for Breaking the security laws of our Nation. If anybody else (except for well connected elite insiders, both dem and Rep) she would be wearing a orange jumpsuit... with stripes.

Guy, put in a pay phone and have him read my link above. He can read, can't he?
SKC, it is easiest just going to their website.

He's my second choice. I think Hillary has the best chance of prevailing in the general, so I am supporting her, although as I said earlier, I realize her victory would be far from certain. My priority is to select the most electable democratic candidate. If Bernie gets the nod, I would then support him.

Reilly. Obviously, you find the article mentioned pretty close to 100% spot on. I will give it as close to an unbiased read as I can, but just because it's printed doesn't make it true.

LOL couchmaster
Anyone in their right mind should be outraged by the F-35 boondoggle. Unfortunately it appears that Bernie did not oppose it even though he recognized the F-35 program was "wasteful." It was a "done deal" and provides jobs for Burlington residents.
That might have made the F-35 a prime target for Sanders in his speeches railing against wasteful defense spending and mismanagement as it has been for critics like Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. But the F-35 will be based in Vermont’s Air National Guard Base -- which could help maintain jobs in his home state. And so while he has not received campaign cash from F-35 maker Lockheed Martin, Sanders has backed the project.
The F-35 “ has been incredibly wasteful,” Sanders told a New Hampshire audience. “But for better or worse, that is the plane of record right now, and it is not gonna be discarded. That’s the reality.”

$75 Billion for Bernie's health care program? If you believe that then
you'll want to buy a time share at my secret surf spot in Nebraska. As
I noted earlier The Economist says Bernie's largesse comes up
$3 TRILLION short of reality.
Reilly, you're mixing metaphors. The $75B was quoted as the cost of his health-care plan, not the complete package of what he's proposing.
True, the Economist article you posted does say $3T, but lo, not for his health-care plan. That's for what they see as where he intends to get the revenue for all his plans. Here, take a look:
... the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, an advocacy group, reckons Mr Sanders has highballed his revenue estimates by $3 trillion over a decade.
So, either you are not reading very closely or you are being disingenuous with your quotes.

She didn't break any laws
it's pure Right Wing hysterical LIES
They just say bad sh#t about her constantly and if you put it all together it seems like she should be in jail already for something, I forgot what it was??
She did not have any truly classified material on her secure e-mail server
All classified material stays on a classified server and can't be moved around.
It's just a witch hunt
search long enough and they might find something to ding her on
it's despicable
being disingenuous with your quotes. yes, all Repubs do it
they try and lead you astray with mis or incomplete information

Gary, you know I am loathe to extrapolate. Of course it will cost at least
50% more than that, but what's $120 Billion as long as it provides jobs,
right, Bernie? And for the record, studies done long ago have shown that
dollars spent on 'defense' don't generate anywhere near the jobs that dollars
spent in more meaningful ways do.
K-man, I never said the $3 Trillion was all due to just the health care.
What does it matter how it breaks down if we're all in a soup line? But
the important thing for Bernie is that we'll all be in the soup line together.

That is the hypocrisy of all these stupid anti gun nuts on this forum.
They are so disgustingly pathetic hypocrites.
All while keep the world war machine going full bore.
Yes it creates jobs but you stupid people it also creates horrific karmic reactions of epic proportions that you stupid people are experiencing in all your daily lives.
Too blind even see it is the American stupid fool way ......
