Brian Jones said:
Maybe I misinterpreted him. I thought by saying he would not be a spoiler he meant he would not run independent. My reasoning is that any independent Presidential candidate who gets any real number of votes does act as a spoiler. But I see your point and he may well be selling snake oil.


He obviously doesn't understand politics very well. I find it hilarious, just how myopic people are, that they can't see beyond their own circumstance. In his case it may be the fact that nobody around him ever checks his bullshit, because he's a billionaire. He sees the tax policies that have been adopted by the democratic party as being ridiculous, but he doesn't even try to understand why these proposals have been gaining steam. He just expects people to agree that they are bad, because they hurt guys like him.

I have not. Sounds like they are going to push the idea that Sanders and Gabbard are ruski commies lol

I'll have to find that video.

No, I haven't seen it until you mentioned it.  Looks like he got along with the Soviets, which today is considered treasonous.




Here is some commentary on it saying the video actually might help Bernie, just like the video of AOC dancing probably helped her.

No shit - Bernie should get a medal for laying the groundwork to help convert the Soviets to capitalism.  :smirk:

Just saw this video, about Clinton going after Bernie Sanders this election. I really think they have a pretty serious game plan for sabotaging Bernie this election. Depending on how things shake out, I'm going to be seriously considering voting for Gabbard. It depends how she is doing, when they get to Washington.

I just can't see the DNC being able to get away with fucking Gabbard out of the nomination as easily as they could do Bernie. I can see her absolutely obliterating Donald Trump in the general.

Nice video.  Fuck Hillary and the establishment.  It blows my mind that so many people still respect establishment politicians.

Way to soon to know if Gabbard will be a major player. At this stage she may be "running for Vice President".

Interesting video.  I don't know enough about the new DNC rules to comment, but if the guy is right, it sounds very messed up.

From what I understand, a deal was struck, whereby the DNC will not allow superdelegates to vote in the first round of the nomination process (though they will vote in subsequent rounds. I don't know what that all means tbh. I don't know if the totals are tallied between all voting rounds), but also, the leader of the DNC can dismiss a candidate (after the entire nomination process, the money has been spent, the campaign has been won), if they decide that person does not represent the values of the Democratic party, and is 'not a democrat'.

I've read/heard this from several sources, not just this video. It does not bode well for Bernie, as a lifelong independent. I can see him being dismissed, particularly if he wins by a close margin, though the Democratic candidate would be severely handicapped going into the general, if the people find the nomination process to be a failure of democracy.

If he wins by a wide margin, it would be a tough sell for the Democratic party (How can you suggest that someone doesn't represent the party, when the vast majority of the party voted for that person?). I honestly think the Democratic leadership would be willing to throw the general, if only to stop a Bernie Sanders style Democrat from taking the presidency.

If 2.1 million people donate $27, that's $56.7 million. If they donate twice, that's that's over $113 million. He already has like $15 million from the last campaign. He's going to start out miles ahead of the game! lol

Sanders is a bit too concerned with his radical 'socialist' agenda.  I think a lot of people buy into that without understanding anymore than they are poor and want everyone to have a chance.

We really require multifaceted politics in America to remain free and defended.
