Explain to me what you think 'raising the debt ceiling' means and why you think it's a bad idea
Does the fact that politicians like Cruz and Rubio support things like a balanced budget amendment and oppose increasing the debt ceiling give you pause at all? Do you think those guys have sound economic policies?

I think you know what the raising the debt ceiling means. I think you also know that Bernie constantly complains how big banks and corporations are screwing this country. Why can't he be the one vote that says Enough is enough. Nope he votes to raise the debt ceiling to once again place the load or you and me. Why not force the hand and see what happens, but hey I'm one of those who actually want to see the Federal reserve get audit.

What happens to the programs we can't pay for if we don't raise the debt ceiling?
Raising the amount of debt we're legally allowed to tack on isn't the issue, the issue is pork barrel spending, corporate welfare and a virtually unregulated financial industry. Sanders voted in favor of raising the debt ceiling so poor people didn't get kicked off food stamps

The media won't cover Ron Paul. How come the media won't report how popular he is?
Ron Paul is the only sensible candidate.
If Ron Paul doesn't win the primary, I'm writing in Ron Paul in the general election.

Paul never had this many supporters. London you said months ago " Sanders will win one state, Vermont". Then it became " one or two". ... He's won many and he should have taken Iowa.. He will do good in the rust belt. Ron Paul could never pull that off, he couldn't pull half of that off. Bad analogy

I'm not talking about Bernie Sanders. I am talking about some of his supporters.
Bernie Sanders has 0 chance of winning the general election. I like Bernie Sanders. But he will never shake off his self anointed Socialist title. And we have spent the last 8 years hearing about how socialism is bad. His tax and spend plan doesn't add up and he doesn't do well in debates when he gets flustered.
I'm not a Clinton supporter either but it is not because of her policys, smear campaigns by the right or any of the fake ass scandals.
I just don't like her. If Kasich had a chance I would vote for him.

sanders never gets the same time as clinton and never gets to finish what he's saying..clinton also interrupts.

He beats republicans by more than Clinton does. He would absolutely win the general election if he won the democratic nomination, I have no doubt about that. I don't think you're considering a couple things; 1. there are about 12-13 million more registered democrats than republicans in the US, 2. on the issues, Americans are largely progressive, about 60-65%
While Trump, the most likely GOP nominee, is universally hated among most people

Yup I did say that. I would not take the bet that he would win more. fact still remains he does not have the delegate count to get the Dem nod. Michigan will show ya.

Could we please start sounding more like Hillary and Bernie than trump and Rubio. I get it I'm a newbie here- but I was really active on similar sight si,Iliad thread and it got locked because of the vitriol. Which was a real disappointment - there was some great discussion hashing real issues over, but it came to an end becaus the discourse was not civil.
