Bernie is ‘running interference’ for Hillary, in that by being so FAR LEFT, the she looks centrist by comparison..................
Don’t know why Sanders has to do this. When Hillary was in the Senate she was just as far to the left as Sanders, just without the title of Socialist.
The only reason I can thunk of why Sanders is running is to make Hillary look like a moderate while holding the base together.
So we do heve Mooks, I thought we only had the Moors. Maybe George was right after all?
I’m starting to think Sanders is a bigger threat than we think. He has the rhetoric nailed, appealing big time to the gibmedat bloc - which, remember, is half the population. He just cuts right past the caution & naysaying and declares the way things should be, deftly side-stepping how it will be achieved.
Between the skeletons falling out of her closet, the fact that she’s at least pragmatic enough to recognize unicorns don’t fart rainbows on demand (and that money for “debt-free tuition” has nowhere to come from), and by all appearances she views Inauguration as a finish line, her sure-thing chances seem dwindling fast.
Beware Sanders as a “dark horse”: far-Left extremist spewing exactly what a very large potential voting bloc wants to hear. Free $#!^ draws more support than “what’s mine isn’t yours” and “he who will not work, neither shall he eat”. The Obama won - twice - via a voting bloc that won’t likely support the Tea Party candidate; Sanders can re-inspire the “gibmedat” and inspire the Left base to come out in force where Hillary! will inspire them to stay home.
Bernie is nothing but Killary’s stalking horse!
The DNC is setting it up so that Killary can point at Bernie and say, “See, I’m not all that left wing, I’m NOT a communist pycho...look over there!”
That is ALL Bernie is doing! He is giving Killary cover so the LIV (low information voters) can have an excuse for pulling the lever for a douche bag like Killary! At night they can rest each knowing that at least she isn’t as crazy and stupid as Bernie.
That is Bernie’s entire purpose for running; nothing more, nothing less!
His job is to make the former Twelfth Lady look moderate to swing voters.If she wins next year he’ll be handsomely rewarded...perhaps as CEO of the Clinton Foundation Shakedown Scam.
From the article: “Under Sanders plan, college would be free for all, everywhere, paid for by the government in a program Sanders estimates would cost taxpayers more than $70 billion a year, or somewhere around $750 billion over the next decade.”
Would someone on the left please explain to me how this would be “free for all” if it would “cost the taxpayers more than $70 billion a year”?????????
Bernie and Ms Warren have the assignments to make Billary APPEAR more “moderate”.
He is a Brooklyn socialist who unfortunately happens to live in Vermont!
