I don’t hate Sanders, Longsnake. I hate the fact that your side of the aisle presents him as Christ incarnate without acknowledging his flaws, or even worse, defending the indefensible hill.

Don’t be silly, Bernie voted to fund the war over and over like a good patriot representing a (mainly) rural state. He could have voted his conscience, the funding always passed by a HUGE majority, but he didn’t......or did he?

Even though I’m firmly in one camp, I’m actually ok with nearly anyone who approaches their decision with this frame of mind, even if they disagree with me ultimately. I can’t deal with those who think their candidate is not a politician first and foremost. Anyone running for president after __ years as a politician…

But the way it is used is frequently as a purity test. Human beings make mistakes. Sometimes terrible ones with tragic consequences. The question is what they do after those mistakes. Are we suggesting that Clinton was a bad Senator subsequently, or a bad Secretary of State? Are we suggesting that her own statements…

I’d add that these fanatics are only setting themselves up for disappointment when their candidate wins and they find out that their champion isn’t the revolutionary they expected. I remember a lot of people hoping Obama would be some transcendent figure once he got into office; these people spent the next few years…

That’s not how tort law works in any other industry. A company can manufacture a device that works exactly as intended but is still deemed too dangerous by the courts, permitting recovery of damages, particularly where there is available technology that could increase the product’s safety.

It’s not even like he’s being asked to recite the relevant sections of law from memory. He doesn’t know whether he has any legal authority to accomplish his main objective or who would undertake it.

No. These are his main taking points. If a continued refrain of his is that it’s outrageous that kids are in jail for pit but financial ceo’s have faced no jail time for the crisis, he should be able to point to the statue under which they’d be penalized by the justice system.

They asked him first if he had used the subway recently, he said yes. He could have just said no. That was an option.

First off, I’ve seen it. It was pretty good. So was the book. But they are no substitute for reading hundreds of Pooling & Servicing Agreements, which are the governing documents for those toxic mortgage bonds they described in that movie and pouring over gigabytes of raw performance data on the trillion plus dollars…

It’s pretty obvious that you’re the angry one here, Kat. Your purity tests are not reality. The woman voted to the left of 85% of Congress. She’s a liberal.

The man never expected to be this close. You can practically feel his panic in, “Oh SHIT, I actually have to explain how I’ll do it? I can’t just use my stump speech again?”

Sanders is also 5 years older, so you are comparing a college student to a high school student and also it’s fucking dumb and I don’t care because it was 50 fucking years ago.

Bernie participated in a march, Clinton actively organized the desegregation of her college. That’s a difference right there. Quite fitting to what they stand for right now as well.

Jesus, give it a rest. She was 17 at the time. When you were 17 were you politically active? Oh, and you were exactly, totally the same as you were then. Plus, this was the 60's, kids didn’t have the freedom they have today.

Considering Goldwater later became a vocal supporter of gay rights, views can definitely evolve over time.

It doesn’t have anything to do with the comment. It’s just how half of the “for Bernie” arguments are really just attacks on Hillary. There are plenty of valid reasons to vote for Bernie. A rage-boner for Hillary really isn’t necessary.

VT does have very lax gun laws and is an above average exporter of guns that are used in crimes in states where gun control is more strict. I think Trump is more pro gun control than Bernie.

Hillary would be smart to just step back and let Sanders give terrible answers to policy questions like he did yesterday. This interview was stunningly bad.

Nothing to go off of. I guess we just expect some apologies for when Hillary having mothers of gun shot victims campaign with her and was accused of pandering. Obv each of these people can support whatever candidate they want, but I remember Hillary being called a shrillary when she surrounded herself with black women…
