This. To be fair Sanders and other Single Payer only types seem to be either ignorant or intentionally obtuse to what systems are actually used around the world— Single Payer is in reality extremely rare compared to a Bismarck approach with highly regulated private plans and a public option backstop

Both Canada and the UK have private supplemental insurance, most other major peer states don't do a single payer or single provider approach and instead use a hybrid "Bismark" system with a public option and a multitude of private plans

I mean... If we’re not going to allow supplemental insurance (something that’s huge in Canada and the UK)... how the hell do we expect to:

Right I mean I get that this a joke but it’s something you can work into the joke and shows that it isn’t just a random Buzzfeed listicle grafted onto candidates.

Eh.. change the Booker one.. I get the reference but the fact that he’s a vegan is actually an interesting bit of trivia (also at times a pain in the ass when you do advance work and he wants say vegan soul food). 

Biden had an opening and a really interesting point about being a public defender first but no one else even hit at it

This is how a lot of people described Ron Paul- sane, maybe even a bit refreshing for 30 seconds then a sharp right off a cliff and free fall to Crazy Town

Unless "Love" is a 5-iron from a club member he cheated love is not going beat Trump. 

That’s fair... honestly it’s not a great loom for the parry my only counter is seriously try to remember the first Republican debate from back in 2015 the fringe camdidates— evem the ones with gaffes are hard to remember as more than names amdaybe a bullet point or two. 

I mean throwing Irish in there seems a bit racist... If we're being honest

Oh come on- sure Marianne was largely another boring also ran for the for first 90 minites but that last 30 of kook was hilarious, if it was 2020 I'd freaknout but most people won't remember this shit in 6 months let along 16.

That they put Sanders into tier 2 says everything really, he was as off as Biden but without most of the high points. 

I think it definitely scored her some points. 

Yeah... Che had great hair but other than that kind of a murderous authoritarian fuckhead

Bennet should have responded with the line someone had last night about many Doctors and Hospitals not being sustainable under Medicare only rates.

They literally had a non-aggression pact and divided a sovereign nation between them, they weren’t exactly allies but they were by no means adversaries prior to Hitler’s invasion of the Soviet Union.

Do you actually not know the History of WW2?

No, I mean it’s pretty clear that of the frontrunners Biden and Sanders both seriously struggled, whereas Harris, Warren and Buttigieg all showed strong as did Booker and Castro.

Pelosi’s alternative was what, hope the Republicans cave because they feel bad ablut the deaths of children?

Yes. And it was definitely a moral blight again- I’m not saying the US was morally pure in WW2, rather I’m noting that literally every other major player in the War was substantially worse.
