Why so many young people following Bernie?
They don't know or value what Freedom is.
Common Core . . .the dumbing down of America. We are seeing the results of implementation.
American History WILLIAM FEDERER should be one of DONALD TRUMPS advisors.
RE “..Why so many young people following Bernie?...”
Free sh*t versus actually having to WORK for a living.
Thats it in a nutshell.
He’s Santa Claus!
Second generation of entitlements coming on line now. They know nothing else, so why shouldn’t they vote to line their own pockets with others hard work.
Isn’t that the way the world has always been for them?
Communism has been subtly taught in most publlc schools since the ‘70’s, but especially in the last 20 years.......
Why do you think the Dems and Bernie get so much support?
Until there is a solution for the brainwashing done by our education system, there is no hope for our nation.......and it’s already too late to turn the tide.......
Public schools are Satan’s American masterpiece.
Common core? Read on!

If there still remains a Department of Education in the Trump administration, William Federer needs to be the Secretary of Education. What a knowledgeable and common sense guy! A rare commodity these days!
Lenin’s useful idiots!
Young people are following Bernie because the United States is on its 3rd or 4th generation now where bread and circuses have been funded by a fiat unbacked currency, manipulated interest rates, and massive debt, courtesy of the Federal Reserve.
Such a system naturally benefits insiders who can gain massive wealth, so they see that - but above all, massive debt ($20 Trillion an counting) also promotes the nanny state, progressive government and its ideologues as the answer to all of life’s problems
The teachers and curricula are overwhelmingly left and Marxist and teach a Marxist anti_American worldview.
It predates Common Core.
Communism was the curriculum when I was in school. And I graduated high school in 1994.
Every young adult thinks that the world’s problems can be solved if we all cooperate and get along. It’s a good lesson to teach your kids.
It’s usually in their late 20s that that gets beaten out of them with a baseball bat.
Your comment goes right along with your screen name and was nearly the first thought in my mind when I saw the title question. I’d only add in that the lack of knowledge and lack of value arises from a lack of experience in the world making them easily led/misled.
I won’t say communism is in it outright.
The regular denunciations of capitalism, though, are part of the curriculum with a repeated refrain that it can only be tolerated if the state monitors and supervises capitalism or else the evil greedy people will hurt the average person.
So the more appropriate answer is - they’ve been conditioned to love socialism.
It isn’t helped that most of their history glosses over the founding, barely touches on the Civil War except to say whites are evil for black slavery but doesn’t discuss anyone else’s involvement like blacks owning blacks in Africa or Arabs owning blacks. Only goes into detail with the Great Depression and depicts socialism under FDR as saving the country and then the world by taking out evil nationalist Hitler.
Why are so many young people following Bernie?.
I believe it is because they have been taught that the Government owes them a living.
Although there are exceptions, many would say they are a bunch of spoiled no good for nothing brats.
I don`t think i want to hold my breath until it gets better as no one is going to volunteer to work if they can get by with out working.
I have been there and know that work used to be the only alternative to going hungry so i worked and after a few weeks of pick and shovel would you believe i actually started feeling like a Man.
A very good feeling to realize i could take care of my self.
Socialism will work for awhile but then what? due to socialism America is trillions of dollars in debt and so are the other socialist nations which are most of them.
A child should never go to bed hungry??? i know of several fat kids who need to go to bed hungry. but they won`t as long as they are pleased with the store bought prepared meals you give them.
[Communism was the curriculum when I was in school.]
Karl Marx was quoted more than the Founding Father’s in my children’s high school textbooks.
The answer is to ask what the fundamental components of communism are.
Ultimately, the goal of communism is to control humans so they will serve the interests of the(ir) elites.
The ultimate goal of Common Core is to produce compliant workers who do not possess critical thinking skills and who do not know their history and do not possess any national pride. This enables the elites to control them better.
Looking at it that way the goals of Communism and Common Core are very closely aligned. Both are very bad for a free people.
When I went to school in Florida it was still mandatory to teach “Americanism vs Communism”.
How things have changed.
