Elections 2020 Democratic Primary Thread v4

[Gunny]

My sense is that this is coming down to a Biden/Bernie race. Bernie has an enormous headwind in the form of the DNC establishment. This shouldn’t be discounted as they will still pull every trigger they have against him. Wildcard is that Biden’s mind appears to be rapidly slipping away from him (did anyone see the mashup of his incoherent mumblings at the last debate) and Democrats, including the establishment, may panic and decide he can be trusted for the generals.

Our friend @VivaRevolution will have to find a new doormat to vote for soon. I think we should all gather round’ and help this man get over it in 2020. Maybe if doormat bern agrees to be bidens personal blonde hair rubber (in any body of water)...he could have a White House pass

Anyone who gets double yellows is a child and thinks like a child and can be dismissed as a child.

Ive never undestood you guys walking around with double yellows but not being ashamed to assert yourselves.

You literaly need parenting to be on a public forum....

I think Biden has a double whammy going against him.

For serious people those mental lapses are a real concern.

For low info people, that attack is death.

Lmao you on mobile huh

Yeah how did you know?

Man, Alex there is like a WR OT poster. His whole deal is rustling jimmies, and branding.

We can deny him the first atleast.

No context necessary to realize you’re Jack’s pet.
If there is a deeper context as you are alluding to now then you should have respected that context and sent your concerns via pm (but then Jack wouldn’t pat you on your head for being such a good boy).

This goes to the conflict vs. mistake point I made earlier. You seem unable to conceive of people just being interested in getting things right according to objective reality. It's just about "who's side are you on?" which is probably also why you tend to be so dishonest. Fawlty's arguments aren't being addressed on their merit because you can't see past "he's agreeing with the evil Jack."

On that same point, I linked this earlier:

That's probably a better framework for thinking of the difference than liberal vs. progressive.

He got rusted by a "like" that dared to go against the Fuhrer. I'm pretty sure @Fawlty is in love with you, dude.

That’s funny, I always found the goof troop to be the children here, very emotional and very gullible

I believe I got dubs without posting for weeks so I don’t even know why. The “flaming” excuse seems to be used very liberally by our astute mods. It is what it is. If someone could get dubs in real life it would be a so called preacher that supports a doormat communist...that I think is more shameful and downright sad

Eh you goofs don’t really like the truth to be told to your face....not even as words on a screen

As long as those at the bottom have UHC and a basic livable minimum wage and strong unions then I can accept this.

I haven't been to the doctor, ER, or any kind of place where I needed my health checked in 7yrs. The individuals that should earn free-ish healthcare are ones born with serious health issues out the womb and individuals after 60. If not then everyone should have to work for the ability to get checked out on a basic level. Tons of people go to the hospital "just in case" sheerly out the fact they have no intentions of paying anything out of pocket(especially the homeless). Free healthcare isn't the answer the answer should be more affordable bills so the common man could walk in and pay a reasonable rate whether they have to wait a few days for "pay day" or get a slight cash advance to handle their needs. A system where you work off your medical bills would be decent as well(community service). I'm not into the "handouts-system" that everyone is clamoring for. How are you going to wipe out student loans when someone signed their name next to the dotted line. Do those who busted their butts and paid their own way get to receive a check to offset their classes, books, and rent? I would have loved to have free living arrangements for 5-6 years. Minimum wage is pointless, you're only worth what you get paid if not do something about it . Paying McDonald's or Checkers workers $15hourly when they aren't skilled or worth much to the workforce is outrageous.

Does that mean Bernie is President Trump's political rival now??

Go check the OT sir, and find out that you are talking to a living Sherdog legend.

I got rustled by somebody who is allegedly a bud taking up for a bud calling another bud mentally ill, and actually meaning it beyond the whole e-shit-flinging thing. It was very not cool.

 

[Aegon Spengler]

The important part here is that because Bernie’s campaign has gone full grassroots, guerrilla-style, meet the voters where they are- it means as long as Bernie is polling within a couple points from the leader in a given state he’s still likely in position to win that state because he is garnering votes no media poll will ever show.

The campaign acknowledges its a risky strategy, as pointed out by huge friend of the campaign(/s) Rahm Emmanuel among many other criticisms, but Bernie’s only real surefire path to victory in the primaries(as well as the general to ensure passage of his plans) is to crush the competition.

We’re going to win as long as we stay on message, continue donating at high rates, continue phone banking, text banking, and actually going to the polls to vote.

The Ontario Liberal Party used that exact strategy and it lead to a long political dynasty. 15 years in power. Eventually people got sick of them but it can be very effective if people like your message.

If you have an unhealthy obsession with a random user on a forum, then sure. It's funny how take no issue with JVS's personal attacks towards your "friends", which by my take, have been far more ugly and frequent. One "like" against Jackie though, and you're all bent out of shape. LOL.
