Last week I came out as a 2016 supporter of Hillary Clinton - and a 2020 supporter of Bernie Sanders.
Four years ago, I was excited about electing a woman president. I admired Secretary Clintons experience, and I thought she was the unbeatable candidate in the race. While I loved what Bernie was saying, I found it hard to believe at the time that he could get elected. He seemed almost too good to be true.
But hindsight is 2020. Donald Trump won for a number of reasons we all can name - from the Russians to James Comey to the Clinton baggage to misogyny to a lack of a Democratic ground campaign in battleground states.
Four years later, the world looks very different, in part because of the damage and division Trump has wreaked on our country. But thats not all that has changed; what once seemed like Bernies pipe dream is now within grasp.
Bernie is speaking to the core issues that matter to the vast majority of Americans on the left, on the right and to people who have no use for politics.
We need to stop worrying about finding a centrist candidate who checks all the boxes or seems the most traditionally electable. Instead of voting based on what we think other Americans will like - something that Democrats are not very good at, given our history with electable nominees such as John Kerry and Clinton - we should vote for who we believe in.
We are all desperately worried about finding the candidate who can take out Trump, and some keep making the argument that we must compromise our values and needs to achieve that. Ive got good news: With Bernie Sanders, we dont have to.

Celebrity Net Worth says Cynthia Nixon is worth $25.
This ‘lady’ must be living in an alternate reality universe.
Everything she says and believes, is the complete opposite of the real world.
Why should I give a damn what an airhead from Sex and the City thinks?
The author makes the point that three wealthy families in the USA have as much in assets as the bottom half of the population. So, you shouldn’t vote along with rich people like Trump.
Who are the three families? Bezos, Gates, and Buffet.
All Democrat!
I don’t think lesbians should be allowed to vote, for the many reasons we can all easily name. They eat babies, have constant diarrhea, steal money from big banks, and spread the coronavirus. They have done tremendous damage to our country and clearly we need straights to come in and clean things up.
Amazing how matter-of-factly they can write such utter horse shit about President Trump.
She's admitting the democrat establishment is "panicked". Winning!!
Real hard convincing Bernie Believers that he’s a Communist, as they point to his Democratic Socialist rhetoric - not acknowledging that (A) he can’t ever say “I’m a communist” and get elected, and (B) his spending plan is so far beyond our already unsustainable rate that gov’t will quickly get to the end of “socialism only works until you run out of other people’s money” at which point, unwilling to relent, socialist leadership plows straight into communism (aka “f money, get to work slave”).

[This lady must be living in an alternate reality universe.]
Cynthia Nixon is just a typical Democrat. That part of a sentence made me laugh.
“Nixon has been an advocate for LGBT rights in the United States, particularly the right of same-sex marriage.[4][5] She met her wife at a 2002 gay rights rally, and announced her engagement at a rally for New York marriage equality in 2009.[6] She received the Yale University Artist for Equality award in 2013[7] and a Visibility Award from the Human Rights Campaign in 2018.[8]”

According to the UN, Cuba has achieved environmental perfection. If you ain't got it, you can't discard it. Even when it breaks beyond repair, it's used to hold up a porch, or as aggregate in concrete. 100% recycling...
Isn't desperation great?
Bernie is a lot of things, but a unity candidate???? No.
“I am going to enact socialism right now..every single celebrity, including Cher, Rosie ODonnell, Judd Apalow, etc etc etc, they all have to give up 100 percent of their yearly earnings to the federal govt...”
That would be right up there with Ronald Reagan’s “My fellow Americans, I am pleased to tell you today that I’ve signed legislation that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes.”
PDJT should announce it and advise citizens to watch out for exploding liberal heads.
The definition of insanity...
“From 1988 to 2003, Nixon was in a relationship with schoolteacher Danny Mozes.[74] They have two children together. In June 2018, Nixon revealed that the older child is transgender.[75][76]
In 2004, Nixon began dating education activist Christine Marinoni.[77] Nixon and Marinoni became engaged in April 2009,[78] and married in New York City on May 27, 2012, with Nixon wearing a custom-made, pale green dress by Carolina Herrera.[74][79] Marinoni gave birth to a son, Max Ellington, in 2011.[80]
Regarding her sexual orientation, Nixon remarked in 2007: “I don’t really feel I’ve changed. I’d been with men all my life, and I’d never fallen in love with a woman. But when I did, it didn’t seem so strange. I’m just a woman in love with another woman.”[77] She identified herself as bisexual in 2012.[81] Prior to the legalization of same-sex marriage in Washington state (Marinoni’s home), Nixon had taken a public stand supporting the issue, and hosted a fundraising event in support of Washington Referendum 74.[82]
Nixon and her family attend Congregation Beit Simchat Torah, an LGBT synagogue.[83][84][85]
In October 2006, Nixon was diagnosed with breast cancer during a routine mammography.[86] She initially decided not to go public with her illness because she feared it might hurt her career,[87] but in April 2008, she announced her battle with the disease in an interview with Good Morning America.[86] Since then, Nixon has become a breast cancer activist. She convinced the head of NBC to air her breast cancer special in a prime time program,[87] and became an Ambassador for Susan G. Komen for the Cure.”
Bernie, Bernie, Bernie!
Vote for Bernie in the primary!
Bern it Down!
Hahahahaha. Well at least Bernie is honest that hes a pinko and not like most Dems who are but try to pretend they arent
We need to stop worrying about finding a centrist candidate who checks all the boxes or seems the most traditionally electable.
Didn't she pretty much just describe Obama here?
Since Ford thinks Trump is a "son of a b*tch", we should confiscate Harrison's wealth and give him a "living wage" of maybe $75,000 a year.
The rest goes for Ford's socialist dream.
Give hte country a very clear choice, and let the chips fall where they may.
What a brainless bimbo. I could see not liking Donald Trump (not that I agree, of course), but to basically worship the ground upon which Bernie Sanders (of ALL people!) walks puts her solidly in the mindless and batshit crazy category...and that without even being hot. She’s not even on the hot-crazy matrix.
