He thinks criticizing Bernie will get a rise out of his supporters on here, but he cant manage to land a valid blow. 
Most honest politician in a generation, you really gotta grasp at straws. People on here dont even waste their time on Trump anymore, hes too easy.
You never accuse the other 99 memebers of being "pure as the driven snow"... if you did, I would call you out on that BS too
Now Bernie is supposed to be "exempt" because he's not as good as getting rich off taxpayers as the other members are?
Like stated before, Bernice is rich, the poorest guy at the country club is still effing rich, sorry your hero is a just another douchebag just like the rest of congress.

That's the one thing I appreciate about Bernie. He seems to earnestly believe in his message. He is authentic and it's refreshing to see a politician like that. Unfortunately, myself and lots of others don't believe in his message, regardless of how much he honestly believes in it himself.

Check out how slick he is, though. Totally culturally appropriated this hand shake on the fly like that. So down with the brothers. Shit's tight.

1. Yeah because they arent pure. So why would I call them that?
2. I didnt say he was exempt. But its disingenuous to single him out for "getting rich off the backs of taxpayers" when he might be the only US senator actually helping the taxpayer.

Weird, because it seems to me he moved presidential politics farther to the left than anyone since maybe Kennedy, or even FDR.

What I find baffling is the extent that Bernie Bros will follow this delusion even after Bernie had the primary rigged against him by Hillary. Some of them will actually vote for Hillary now based on this insane belief that Bernie's campaign is going to somehow shape her policies as POTUS. They refuse to admit that they're being lied to and hoodwinked. And they refuse to acknowledge that Hillary has only adapted Bernie's platform insofar as her campaign platitudes go. But really, none of this will manifest itself in the real world if Hillary gets in.

Actually, a shitload of Bernie supporters see it like that. But we also see that you dont change things from the outside because things are rigged against third parties, so you have to change from within. Bernie is being smart. He's using his newfound influence to adopt a nationally recognized agenda, but he's also funding and supporting congressional and senatorial races.
He'll have his coalition of Berniecrats to raise hell when Hillary wants to backtrack on something.
Trust, none of us went through all this, Bernie included, to just throw up our hands and let Hillary take the wheel. This is simply the best move remaining.

Depends how close it is in FL the first week of November. We're a prettt important swing state. But if shes up by more than the margin of error, I wont vote at all.
I intended on voting Stein, but theres just no way that will accomplish anything. If a third party cant rise in this race, then it never will. So i'll likely abstain.
But trust me, Bernie nor his supporters forgot why his campaign existed in the first place. The plan is now to push the Dems to the left, and that starts by making sure we have one to push.
Because a conservative Supreme Court would basically block any and all of Bernie's agenda for the next 20 years. We cant afford to let Trump get elected because we're irritated.

So you're basically voting for Hillary unless you think there will be enough Floridians to do your dirty work for you?

Basically. She hasnt earned my vote, but I much prefer she win my state than Trump. If I can accomplish that without having to vote for her, win win.

Congress will probably immediately move to impeach when/if she gets in.

This is to all of you guys: please do go vote. I find it difficult to believe that a person can sink many hours pointlessly discussing politics online but then can't be bothered to mosey on down to the poll.
Vote for yourself, vote for mickey mouse, vote STAL, vote for Sanders, vote for Johnson (another honest, if geopolitically challenged candidate) or Stein, or if the race is close go ahead and vote against either Trump or Hillary with a clean conscious.
If you have serious concerns about the validity of the poll and wish to stay home in protest, fine. But know that your vote makes a bigger and bigger impact the further downballot you go, and that the politicians will take your abstain as laziness and apathy as opposed to protest.
It is A-OK to prefer Sanders to Stein to Johnson to Hillary to Trump, but vote Hillary b/c the Trump/Hillary race is close. Its not your fault we are stuck with this retarded "first-past-the-post" electoral college.

Fine, stop paying taxes. Also please stop making use of the roads, telecommunications, emergency services, utilities, national defense, education system, garbage pickup, etc. that the rest of us have gotten together and agreed to pay for.
