Actually we don’t.

I’ve become convinced that something close to a working majority of our population agrees with Bernie.

Once enough of them start voting regularly it’s lights-out.

AMERICANS deserve better.

America, on the other hand, I’m not so sure.

I thin you mean non-working majority, LOL! They sure do love other people's money.

I am thinking now that if Trump or Cruz are denied the nomination, that I am going to vote demorat in every single national election presented to me. I won’t vote for hitlery or the bern, but I won’t vote for the GOP nominee either. I will vote straight conservative on all state level and lower races I can, but if GOPee does this, they need to be destroyed.

My three little dogs were deeply offended by her barking and will not be voting for her.

Equating the candidates is just meme-building and spin.

Partisan Media Shills Alert!

So maybe we get exactly what we deserve.

Yup.

It's God who deserves better than
what Americans has been offering.

Sadly over the past fifty years America has entered an era of post Christian, neo pagan epicurean decadence. Widespread drug use, fornication, sodomy, pornography, earth and celebrity worship, chronic dependency has become the norm. The vile Obama was not elected and reelected in a political or cultural vacuum. Historically most great civilizations have experienced such a decline. America has always seemed to parallel the Roman experience. What has happened in America once happened in Rome. When Rome entered its terminal decadence, the leaders it spawned were of very low quality. They reflected the values of the population that spawned them. No student od history should be astonished, perhaps wistful and upset, that Hillary Clinton, an inherently dishonest and corrupt woman, very well may become President of the United States.

K Street and the Chamber of Commerce DESERVE to live a few years under a Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren administration.

Then they can come groveling back to us, begging forgiveness.

You had better read what you wrote as you make no sense whatsoever.

That is an outstanding point — you want to feed the creature when it seems to come in handy, perhaps a lesson in what it does when it gets too big to control is in order.

I disagree. The republican state & local committees are just as corrupt as the national RNC. If you really want to change things run for state committee

Was it you who put up the Daniel “even the basest of individuals” bible quote about those God might elevate over a nation? Daniel 4, iirc.

Between abortion, and electing LBJ, Clinton and Obama, we probably deserve God’s wrath.

We need political, religious and business leaders at all levels who are unafraid to tell America that we have been using up our seed corn for decades, and that it will take decades of what a great man called "blood, toil, tears, and sweat" - in a word, austerity - to get back to our former greatness.

Instead we get the likes of Trump and Sanders, who tell their followers that the solutions are easy, quick and cheap, and that someone else (who is absolutely Not Them) will be forced to pay for it all.

I am reasonably confident that no one who tells Americans the truth that they need to hear will ever be elected.
