  1. Holy shit, the whole point is to move the Overton Window, I don't personally think anything close to a real M4A passes during a two-term Bernie presidency. I want someone to push as literally as hard as possible to make it happen to get people to start understand that this should be the norm and is something that all politicians will eventually have to truly support at a minimum. It's my dream that my daughter doesn't have to deal with the healthcare industry in the way I did at some point in her life, it starts now.
  2. Good lord, the same could be said for any candidate's big platform. What is Nina supposed to say to make you feel better? This is literally her going on TV to drive enthusiasm, not turn into a wonk.
  3. Bernie has already said that we'd fund M4A by a tax everyone pays if that's what you're referring to.
  4. @bad_teammate I'm all in for Nina Turner to be the VP. I know it could be awful given Bernie's age and her inexperience in national politics (I think she only served on the Ohio House of Reps) but I don't want a situation where Bernie's old ass gets sick and immobilized and a center-left VP does absolutely nothing to carry on his message of a revolution.
  5. No one can win then. Have you taken a look at any polls and who all the other non-Bernie candidates poll well with? None of them have the base that Bernie does. It was one caucus in a state that's turning more red, you're being hyperbolic by comparing it to 12 years ago.
  6. Strong grandpa and grandma energy.
  7. It sounds like the Pete bump is real from scrolling through Twitter but there is a small army of Bernie volunteers that are hyper-motivated and are knocking on insane numbers of doors. If Bernie can get the nomination it will be crazy to see the numbers of people that will come out to canvas.
  8. That was unfuckingreal. UNC probably going to get blown out in OT now
  9. I bet that will work really well in the mid-west states as well. They all hate each other.
  10. Thanks for the info, just going to be pissed if Pete somehow pulls NH off without a clear path in the rest of the US. Even if Bernie wins by only a couple points I'll be nervous.
  11. @bad_teammate You're more in-tune with the volunteering base of Bernie. Pete doesn't have anywhere near the number of offices in New Hampshire as he did in Iowa right? Trying to get an answer on Twitter, but I'm wondering how many more volunteers are canvasing for Bernie in NH vs the other candidates as opposed to Iowa where Pete had a huge base by spending so much money.
  12. Well, we have to end apartheid for one. And slow down the nuclear arms race, stop terrorism and world hunger. We have to provide food and shelter for the homeless, and oppose racial discrimination and promote civil rights, while also promoting equal rights for women. We have to encourage a return to traditional moral values. Most importantly, we have to promote general social concern and less materialism in young people.
  13. Because they smartly require you to actually have a proper number of donors, he was trying to get the rules changed and I thought he was going to be on the stage tonight but lots of DNC members rightfully complained considering all the other candidates who've dropped out missed debates.
  14. lmao, dude he's running ads and that's it. He has like zero actual grassroots support and all he'll do is take votes from Biden, Pete, and Amy.
  15. It's a huge reason why Pete has almost zero black support, just because B_T posted it doesn't mean he doesn't deserve to answer for it.
  16. Biden is more senile than Trump, that should have been obvious a few years ago.
  17. The people voicing concerns in here, minus Bozo, are going to vote for Trump or Gary Johnson again regardless.
  18. Lol at the peanut gallery showing up itt. Go beat your meat to Trump locking up brown children at the border and smelling your own farts.
  19. Bernie is going to take away your bidets and throw you into a re-education camp if you don't submit before the election.
  20. Something like 80% of people polled in the Iowa caucus said they didn't use Twitter, Kamala's image problem was her own fault. Tulsi also kamikazied her.
  21. lmao, remember how Hillary encouraged Trump to run? Be careful for what you wish for. I seriously want to hear which candidate besides Bernie has the best chance to beat Trump.
  22. You've basically ignored the video I post earlier and this one. Bernie's base is no longer super-white, he's well positioned to smash everyone but Biden (who is cratering) in super non-white states. No one else comes close to being able to get the support to beat Trump.
  23. Bernie isn't strapped for cash dingus. He raised more in the month of January than any other candidate did in any QUARTER. Pete had more than double the number of offices in Iowa than any other candidate, including Bernie. Pete also has almost no non-white support, New Hampshire is the last state for many weeks where the overwhelming number of people are white.
  24. * DSA candidate doesn't win in Suburban San Antonio * This is why Bernie can't win!!! Better run Biden who may be more senile than Trump at this point!
  25. If your whole argument is about what Our Revolution did and literally based on no other polling numbers then that is one of the weakest arguments you could make about Bernie's chances in November. AOC, Tlaib, and Omar are all women of color who did not shy away from socialist-esque talking points and who all won. Some lady running in suburban Texas not winning as a self-proclaimed DSA doesn't mean shit about Biden, Pete, or anyone else and would be the most dumb thing to point at when we have actual polling data. There's been, what, 60 years of McCarthyism-style propaganda against the word "socialism," I am not surprised the first time since then that people who embraced Bernie didn't get swept into office, it's going to take years and years of olds dying off before we get anywhere near the kind of electorate I'd like regardless of whether Bernie wins the presidency. Are you just completely ignorant of how hard it is to win any kind of election without big money support? It's why AOC is basically trying to fund a separate PAC right now because the DCCC is refusing to fund real progressive challengers where they face an up-hill battle.
