Grassroots for Bernie Sanders 2016

Will you vote for him

  • Yes

  • No


Results are only viewable after voting.
I'm not worried at all.
Here I'll post this in hopes you may actually watch it and respond .. In the past you haven't impress ed me to sway shit.
I've watched/read everything you've posted. A few things:

1. Jeb is not going to be the GOP nominee. Therefore, comparing Bernie's odds against him does not paint an accurate picture of reality.
2. Based on the crooked system the Democratic Party has set up, Hillary is going to get the delegates regardless of how Bernie does with the individual voters.
3. I don't believe America is ready to go all in for an avowed socialist. That is to say, if he wins the nomination, he's not going to do well with the country as a whole.
 
Ooohhhh, you got me! Real sharp tack.

I missed that, what do you mean by the rest of you didn't notice.

my kids go to a private school, real new age feel goodery. Public schools are probably going to be looking a damn sight better with no child left behind falling to the wayside. I am not a fan of standardized tests. They are pretty good up here nothing like the shit I dealt with growing up in the south
Okay, so now we have full disclosure. Please feel free to sing the praises of socialism, while you justify sending your kids to a product of capitalism, ie. private school. Your hypocrisy makes any further arguments from you irrelevant. Do you think your kids are better than everybody else's? Are you trying to give them an unfair advantage over other kids in their age group? Why don't you explain to young Levi why you intentionally broke with the socialist mantra you claim to defend? Explain to Treefongu, Treetopflyer, and Frashdog why you only want to play along with the commune to the point where you don't.

Because that's where it gets real; doesn't it Mac? You're responsible for those little people who you love more than life itself. When you're honest with yourself, their future is worth more to you than to give them over to the mismanagement of the state. How would Bernie feel about you not cooperating by sending your kids to private school? You're dragging down the averages of all the other kids--right? Bernie will see to it that you no longer have the right to send your kids to private school. Oh, he may promise you that you can keep your private school. "You can keep your doctor. You can keep your plan." Sound familiar? But, in the end--those rights will have to go away under socialism. All of that individuality and free way of thinking will have to give way to the better good of the society. If that private school stays open under Bernie--every kid in your town should be allowed the privilege of attending (for free). And, those teachers should be unionized and paid the same as all the other teachers (probably more for those private school teachers). So, essentially, that school will be public under Bernie. Or, if he can't get it done; under his socialist successor. See, your kids really belong to the state, according to liberals. Hillary wrote a book, 'It Takes a Village'. Barrack grew up in that village. And Bernie is going to turn your nice little town into a communal village--complete with hunger, lice, and a life expectancy of 45.

The government has the single ability to ruin everything they touch. Bernie and Hillary's answer to every problem is: more government. Bernie, specifically, gauges his success on the equality of results; not the equality of opportunity. According to liberal doctrine, if your kids score higher on their SATs, they were unfairly advantaged. This will not be permitted. That might allow them to get into a better college. They might graduate earning a higher income. They might drive nicer cars and live in bigger houses. Sorry--that's all a "no-no". Liberals cannot have winners and losers. We all have to equally be losers.

We haven't even talked about the money you're spending to send them to this private school--you elitist. That could be taxed away from you and given to the homeless. Where's your heart Mac?
 
Socialist public schools, I would look forward to. Capitalist public schools, less so. When we spend more on education than we do on killing brown people they will be in good shape.

I just read this again... Thanks for setting me straight. Wouldn't want to hurt young Levi's feelings would I?

Like its fucking embarrassing to to not be excited about the state of the U.S. school system. It would be stupendous if every kid in town got to go to the school my kids attend. It's just elementary and gives a really great foundation. It should be state subsidized. All schools should be that good. But the way our country works they aren't.
 
Such insight. Chilling.

I would say that I don't believe in any of this government bullshit going on. I mearly try to choose the least offensive options.

I think the one true problem in the world is overpopulation. And until it is mitigated, everything else is just wasting time. I wait patiently for societal collapse and a reversion to a more primitive way of life. All of this money and power is farce, fiction, and blown smoke. And all of this debate truly means nothing. But I do love seeing you conservative types get all puffed up and defensive.

Honestly Trump presidency is my only worry. But who knows, maybe even his fake ass would be a catalyst for some true, lasting, positive change.

Europe sharia law? I think you are falling for the ant-arab bigotry of your corporate (you call it liberal) media.

Overpopulation? Did you believe that before or after you had kids?

Jim's right. Only 3 possibilities:
1. You're a hypocrite
2. You're a closet capitalist/elitist....wait, that would make your posts hypocritical
3. You have no idea what you believe
 
Based on the crooked system the Democratic Party has set up
This is my biggest point and reason for liking Bernie .. He seems sincere from what I've seen in wanting to get the crooked Ness out of politics. Showing people whom believe politics is a failed system that there can be hope for democracy not oligarchy. Super rich control politics which grips tightly to society and I don't like what I see. I don't believe Bernie is the end all be all.. Just a spark for a change.. Politics really sucks is my ultimate conclusion from this thread and how crazy it is I've only scratched the surface to realize that.
 
You are not swaying anybody here, just showing your ass.

Think about this Mac.
Maybe BRT's motive is not to sway ANYONE but expose the real
(socialist that lives like a capitalist) Mac Swan.

Just an observation, carry on.
 
The fear and division indoctrination has been so very effective. Bernie is speaking directly at those that have perpetrated that message.

Don't let the bastards bring you down boys. Focus on what is good. And what you got is good.
The insanity is only going to escalate. Expect it.

First one was unplanned. So before. And only children are weird, so...

Guys, it's a simple concept. Just because I believe in a system where quality education is free to all citizens, doesn't mean I believe quality education is being provided to all citizens. Present system broken. Not sure where the disconnect is here for you but I'm done try a communicate.

I am truly thankful for you two coming along and figuring out all this stuff about me without actually meeting me or knowing fuck all about my life. If only I had encountered you both in my teens. Maybe I would be a presumptuous dickbag as well. Alas.

See you dingbats in the funny pages
