Let's talk about the Clintons

Well, if you're calling me a Bernie supporter at least you've gotten over the delusion that I'm a Trump supporter. That's some progress.

Yea, that begs the question of who do you support? For years I've heard that you hate Clinton, Obama, Carter and every other democrat. But I've never seen a thread on someone that you support?

You've also seen me bash Republicans, but that tends to not stand out as everyone else here bashes them as well.

For the record, I've actually praised Carter on this forum. Not even backhanded praise, but straight out praise. I've said some very good things about him. Now let us examine ... I've praised Carter ... I've stated very clearly and often that I am anti-war ... can you think of why I might have said something good about Carter?

I'm not calling you a Bernie supporter, just pointing out that you SHOULD have been if you were opposed to candidates who are beholden to special interests.
Before you object, let me note that I already know that had he gotten the nomination, Bernie had already agreed in advance that he would have become beholden to Party donors...
There seems to be little chance that the powers that be will displaced any time soon.

Bernie at least would have been progress.

But the even better candidate to change this was Lawrence Lessig. And the DNC screwed him over even more than they did Bernie.

Yes, nothing promotes progress more than losing an election.

Oh but didn't you hear? Bernie was robbed. Robbed, I tell you!

He carpet-bagged his way into the Democratic party and they didn't fully embrace him for trying to take down their preeminent candidate and so he was robbed of his deserved victory!

Or something...
