All that said, I agree w/John and the rest of you, I'd prefer someone younger. Atm, only Tulsi Gabbard is running, who has the experience (6 years in Congress now) and has a similarly progressive platform. Unless you wanna go the Mike Gravel route, but he's older than Bernie!

He’s for all that as he knows it’ll never happen it’s political lies and as long as his money isn’t taken to pay for it. He’s just another democrat who needs to put his money where his mouth is or shut up.

Taxation, to social democrats is a means to a specific end. What would Bernie giving money to the Trump administration accomplish?

I'm an anarchist. I don't officially endorse any candidates as a matter of principle. But I will point out bad argumentation. This is a silly argument.

I stopped having any respect for Sanders well over two years ago. He he gets the Democratic nomination, he will not be receiving my vote.


Yet you still respect Twitter?

I haven't bothered to look much at Bernie's policies, but I'm tired of super old people in the white house. I want somebody younger and more in touch with my generation, which, apparently, is the largest age demographic in the US at present. I want a candidate who knows how to use a computer, not one who was alive when both Pearl Harbor and D-Day happened.


I'm tired of the age restriction on the presidency; there have been numerous empires run by minors in the past.

Sanders is a war monger and economically illiterate. A corporate shill.

Among the candidates, Bernie and Tulsi have been the most critical of our foreign policy.

Sanders is a war monger and Tulsi is anti war. Sanders is a corporate shill, Tulsi isn't. They are night and day.

As for the lesser evil, Yeah, Sanders is the worst of all worlds.
