Yes I’m aware. He’s effectively a third party candidate because he’s unelectable on the dem ticket and is serving as a lateral voice in the primary and self-labels as a socialist and is basically like a libertarian running in the republican primary. He says what I want to hear too but I’m realistic and know that if a…

I forgot to mention the 50 grand I raised on gofundme for my dead grandma’s Jazzy scooter.

Once I lied about my grandma being sick to get out of work for a day. She was already dead. I see her wagging a finger at me from heaven every time I lie.

Yeah, thanks for clarifying. I guess I see Sanders as a third party candidate because he really doesn't stand a chance in the two party system, and after the primary I could imagine someone like him running third party. Not saying he will. Just saying he's playing a similar role in the discourse.

It's a metaphorical punch

Yes yes yes. Totally aligned with you here. I guess there are several parts: what you say to get nominated; what you say to get elected; what you attempt to accomplish taking into consideration the likelihood of republican houses. With each step, you move closer to the center on account of pragmatism. The value of…

I wish Obama was stronger too. I like to get grassroots info. But listen it appears that lefty characters are not dedicated.

I hope all your dreams come true.

Again, I totally agree with your points. My input is that Dems do appear to be giving a lot in relation to what media-reflected barometers are registering. In other words, our sense of social and policy progress is informed by media outlets that don’t necessarily reflect the small-town, but vocal and politically…

Yep like the reaction to feminism is oh you want to take this thing all the way?? Then how bout I stay at home and eat tacos and get drunk with the baby while you work and win bread. Then if you criticize me I’ll just invoke feminism. Cuz it’s civil rights.

Yuuuussss all I want is a vaginal presidenttttt. All you want is an unelectable discourse-redirector who gives you warm fuzzies. I want that too but now I know chocolate milk is bad for me so I have to drink water cuz I’m not five. Ok sorry that was bitchy but you started it lol we’re on the same side.

Sounds like a viable ticket. Can I be your VP?

Well I mean you can’t really compare Hilary’s resume to Bachman or Palin, because, facts. If you think anyone gets the presidency without pledging some allegiance to donors, then you are either 22 or younger, or very idealistic and in for a rude awakening. No matter how much of a hippie Sanders appears to you, he’s…

Yes! Exactly. Voter turnout is a challenge for the left when the right has really religious and visceral issues like FETUS BRAIN HARVESTING and HOMO SEX and TAKIN AWAY OUR GUNZ and such activating the reptilian brains and driving votes. I’m glad not to be a party of zealots but we could use some more zeal!!! Until…

Yeah, her only qualification. First Lady, senator and Secretary of State = TOTALLY UNQUALIFIED.

Yeah totally, and if people vote consistently with their feet/ iTunes dollars/ love-hatred of Lena Dunham, we get our first woman president. But you probably have some obscure art house candidate that no one’s ever heard of in mind?

I hear that. My friend mick the other night was all You can't always get what you want...

I completely agree with you. It’s just an unfortunate reality that Hilary, in that scenario, will have to shift back to center to win the presidency. And if a left wing third party candidate pulls votes from her, we get President Thirsty Rubio or President Hand Lotion Commercial Carson. Trust me, I’d MUCH RATHER have…

I mean it's obviously Buckle Bunny

Ugh please don't try to make that a thing. I'm a punch both of them in the face democrat.
