1.) He deflects (Castro had a great literacy initiative to save face for Castro) like there is no tomorrow. When Anderson Cooper stayed on Bernie about Castro, Bernie did the old commie routine of Whatabout as in whatabout Trump doing this or that? Tu Quo.
2.) He dodges questions. Questioned on CNN: will you take Bloomberg's money if you get the nomination, in a yes or no format. We don't need it was the answer from Bernie. Not a flat out, unequivocal no. Gives him wiggle room.
3.) Bernie is all about what he or his movement is going to do, but decades in the Senate and zilch to show for it, even with Obama having dominance in the House and Senate.
4.) Bernie will blame others for nothing happening in #3.
5.) AC asked him how he was going to pay for everything and he said "I don't know" then magically on the debate stage yesterday Bernie says it will be paid for but dodged again and says go to his website (because he doesn't know) and his website is vague and cannot predict the future (a creation of large volume trading he says he will tax, corporations fleeing, etc) so he gives the appearance of an answer without actually providing one.
6.) If all else fails and he can't dodge or whatnot, he will either get red-faced and talk louder or retreat to going after the 1% in fiery speech, how they are the cause of ever yone's troubles, and they somehow have enough money for every dream he's ever had in a rally the troops in a pièce de ré·sis·tance fashion.
Bernie is a scumbag on a mission. Hes got his idiot force behind him believing all the promises
Bernie Sanders is like a snake that tries to strike and evade simultaneously.
Learn the snakes’ moves, pin it, crush it.
Vaguery is a chief weapon of his, as he is always sure there’s plenty of money lying around...somewhere...but doesn’t want to prove it and gets testy if pressed on it.
Just my 2 cents.
What occurred last night was not a debate.
Want a debate?
Stick all the candidates in a small room and seat them at a round table.
Then let them go at it by themselves for two hours.
That I would pay to watch.
He’s a COMMIE! Not a socialist. Keep calling him a COMMIE. Communist. He’ll blow up and get nasty. The only person that can take him down is Trump.
Back in the day,1928 they wrote a song, which forms the basis of Bernie’s socialist /communist campaign. If you listen to that song, you would swear that’s where Bernie sourced his talking points::
You can hear it here:
“The Big Rock Candy Mountains”

Ok Bernie, whatever. Bernie will lose in the General and if he is not in the General (because his nomination was stolen—again) the Dem party will split and lose for at least a generation. All good.
Bloomberg is trying to buy the nomination with his own money.
Sanders is trying to buy the nomination with taxpayer money.
I was an old-time debater, and I know how the President can get under Bernie’s skin.
But, that is my secret until _after_ the primaries... ;-)
Sanders has spent a lifetime defending the indefensible. He’s gotten good at it. It can’t be defended, so the method is to dodge, change the subject, answer a different question, or talk even louder. He’s gotten so good at it that he usually even sounds rational- - - that is, until you actually look at what he says. Unfortunately, his supporters never get to the last stage.
“AC asked him how he was going to pay for everything and he said “I don’t know....”
Driving full speed straight into the communist sh!thole.
How do you debate Bernie?
Will the live equally with the poor?
Will the poor be given menial tasks according to each one’s ability to be doing something helpful and or productive?
Will you force everyone into small efficiency quarters to live?
Someone can defend the murder Castro; and not be instantly out of the contest. Scary how dumbed down the populace is.
At this point there is so much bad blood between Bernie and Bloomie that I’ve become convinced that the loser is going to stage a third-party run.
All good for our side.
Call Bernie a Commie.
When he denies it, ask him what’s wrong with Communism.
If he says bad things about it, ask him why he honeymooned in the USSR.
If he doesn’t say bad things about it, say, “So that’s why you honeymooned in the USSR!”
Go from there.
Sanders will lose in a landslide, I’m convinced once the onion is peeled back he falters hugely.
Whatever a socialist tries to tell you, “society” and “government” are two different things - near opposites in fact (Thomas Paine, Common Sense).My tagline:Thus, cynicism toward both society and government would be incoherent. What is coherent - and what explains socialism - is cynicism towards society and naiveté towards government.
The opposite position might be thought to be naiveté towards society and cynicism towards government, but that is a caricature of what we think of as capitalism - in fact, it is what the coiner of the term “capitalism” (Karl Marx) invented the word to function as a straw man for.
Conservatives eschew cynicism and naiveté. The conservative opposition of "cynicism towards society and naiveté towards government” is, rather, skepticism towards both society and government.
Bernie doesn’t debate. He just throws up straw men for thr useful idiots to buy into.
