It’s weird because Dawson was the ultimate berniebro last go around, saying some of the worst things about Clinton during her schilling for sanders and essentially saying she’d never vote for her.

Our man bernie has always been for good things. I like good things better than the bad things. Why can’t other poiticans be bernie and like more good things than bad things. I think the bad things are still bad and bernie was against the bad things already. Good for bernie.

I’ve always envisioned that Iowans (I think that’s their preferred nom) are both irritated and elated about the caucus being first. The whole country is seemingly tired of their shit and if they have to suffer from candidate after candidate greeting them at the local Jack in the Box, then to hell with ‘em. 

Oh I agree. In terms of putting him next to O’Rouke, I think they cancel each other. That was my point.

Reading is hard, I gather that much. I threw in Castro amongst the other candidates mostly because of his comments on reparations. That stood him out amongst potential progressive candidates. I’m not really on board with him as a major candidate either. 

Who is he and why is he a good option? Id like to hear because I honestly know nothing about him. 

Cool, another negative piece about a candidate.

Alexander, the guy who arranged this whole bowl of fruits and nuts to do this, said he wasn’t mad that Wohl lied...

Goddamn it feels like we’re trying to push a rock up a hill continuously just to get some old white fart into prison for doing truly henious things while a 17 year-old who shoplifted sneakers is given a 5 year clip without batting an eye.

You know how they say the human head weighs 9lbs or so? I imagine this guy is an outlier to that. Christ, look at the size of his heeeeeeeed. 

Well this is negated by the whole “the police are in with the fascists” that was found in Portland, for instance. It wouldn’t surprise me if other police departments are implicated where these troglodytes like to meet up.

I grew up a white suburban kid in a fairly middle class, probably more on the working class end of the spectrum. I never took for granted how hard it was to work for myself in college. There was a level of appreciation getting there and now I strive to help others get there on their own merit or to even look elsewhere…

Standardized testing in this country is a big problem at the moment. It isn’t the leading cause of students struggling in schools or doing anything post-grad, but it is definitely a factor.

You’re right.

I always thought Feingold would have been a good VP. 

I only had to look at the camo hat. Honestly, that was all. 

I’m an Obama fan and can still criticize his policies. That seems to be what she was doing, as is her every right to. I’m not sure why people seem to be coming for her for having an opinion.

Look, I don’t like him that much, but don’t put that evil on him. 

I was there in 2008 as well. It was a different time and I did overlook some things at that point, but I was never on board with him. I thought he was a serviceable VP though. At least compared to his predecessor.

I wish he wouldn’t either. I like Biden as a person, but he is not a good candidate and we’ve seen what he has to offer. It’s nothing fresh and new. Plus his constant defense of his old friends within the GOP - as if the GOP is a normal party that isn’t insane like it was in his day (and it wasn’t much better back…
