Yeah, that makes the republicans look sorta bad, yes?

The simple fact is that the political pendulum has simply run out of momentum to keep swinging rightward. It's taken my entire lifetime and the reappearance of fascism practiced against the populace- this time as much a socio-economic war as a racial one- but Bernie might just be the guy to be the lightning rod, the standard bearer around whom he'll rally enough Americans who demand change for the better to make it inevitable... which really is the same as unstoppable.

We look back at the credit crisis and stock crash of the early 2000s and wonder what as a nation were we thinking? The same will certainly be said of today's situation.

I just hope that everyday Americans on that day will be MORE secure and prosperous, rather than LESS, as has been the case for the last half century.

I don't know if he'd be a good president or not. His economic plan is extremely ambitious. At least IMO.

But my thought process is this:

1. It doesn't look like any republican can realistically win (IMO).

2. Please, not Hillary.

3. Hello Bernie (and maybe Elizabeth too).

As 'minor' details go, that's a deusie! Love it! Meanwhile, isn't Donald Chump STILL leading the republican field? BWAHAHAHA!

The republicans have no chance at winning next year. Trump leading tells you the other candidates don't have much worth selling and the American people definitely aren't buying it.. Walker has an atrocious record in Wisconsin, Rubio's abortion stance is enough to be unelectable alone, Bush and Cruz don't know their asshole from their elbow and everybody else is giant steps behind.. Some of them should forfeit now and save some dignity..

I can respect that. I fear that years as SecState has left Mrs Clinton wooden, careful not to say anything that might be negatively construed... and out of touch with just how bad the plight of the middle class has become in this country.

She has fabulous credentials for the job, some of the best in living memory- but if she can't connect with what her would-be constituents need most, she's not going to succeed.

Here's the knock against Hillary, from (even) liberal political pundits...she doesn't campaign well. She doesn't broadly connect with people like she needs to. She has the resume, the experience, the family name, and she's smart as hell. But she just doesn't "move" people.

She'll probably win, but it will be kinda "by default" if she does. IMO.

OK, yeah. Good point. But I believe that attaining all his goals would not be possible in 25 years, much less 8. But that's just my opinion.

I do love his disdain of big banks though. And Warren's as well.

Getting us to where we are today didn't happen overnight either. A small group of people beginning in the early 1970's concocted the economic policy that has led to the income disparity we see today. The momentum is with us, people are tired of seeing their fellow Americans poor, downtrodden and without relief while the elite bask in unprecedented levels of wealth not seen since the great depression. We have the numbers, all we need is someone to take the lead, Sanders represents that.
