This. I don’t understand why any serious candidate would waste time on this guy. It wouldn’t surprise me if he was forgotten about in a couple of weeks.

To that point, Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren—the two candidates in the race who have a fundamental critique of contemporary capitalism—should immediately and aggressively use Steyer’s candidacy to make a point.

She’s going to really start to shine once the field starts to whittle down.

But, we also know that even if she won, many of these ideas could never be implemented until at least January of 2023.

It’s definitely a lack of awareness combined with a lack of understanding for how easily a car could kill someone.  I’m not sure if even better training can fix that. 

Wait...its the cyclist community’s fault that the drivers on multiple occasions almost hit me because they either weren’t paying attention or did something extremely reckless? The community’s fault? Really?

The left turn thing was the freakiest because as I’m turning left I’m also getting to the right side of the street I’m turning onto as the asshole shot by me.

People blame the biker because most of the time it is the bikers fault.

I was riding into work the morning a woman got right hooked by a box truck on Addison and Damen. Drivers just flat out don’t have any awareness of bicycles unless they have a close call. The habit of doing something like looking over you left shoulder before you get out of your car just isn’t taught.

Bikers get grumpy with them because they (drivers) only follow the laws of traffic when it suits them. Run a red light or stop sign, no problem i’m in a car i can do it. Cross multiple lanes of traffic at once, “it’s ok i’m in a car”. Switch lanes without signaling, park in a bike lane, open the door with out looking,…

Funny...if cars weren’t allowed on the road no one would die from texting, drunk driving, speeding, we’d greatly reduce air pollution, traffic congestion, and road maintenance would be much cheaper.

I bike commute in Chicago, and its like bake lanes don’t even exist sometimes.  There will be Ubers parked in the bike lane when there’s open parking spots 20 feet further down the street, and on two lane streets cars will driving half in the bike lane.

Republics die. Democracies fail. It’s our turn.

I think you should find a better history book because whatever you’re reading that suggests that a very flawed Dem nominee isn’t substantially better than Trump isn’t a very well thought out book.

I think even with a single topic debate ten people at a time is still to many. You almost have to have 4 nights of 5 candidates. Pair them up based on their poll numbers in kind of a snaking draft. Then establish a polling minimum that steadily rises until its whittled down to just 5 total. That way each night has a…

The DNC actually changed the rules for superdelegates. They no longer have a vote on the first ballot, which should give the outcomes of the primaries and the caucuses more weight.

Ah, the old I’m going to make the same arguments over and over again and when people get tired of posting the same rebuttals over again and stop-I’ll declare victory.

I can’t remember who tweeted it, but my favorite last night was when someone said, “Marianne Williamson is as if Goop was a person.”

Ah...the old I can’t actually provide a substantial argument against the points you made, so I’ll just respond with essentially “no...you’re stupid.”
