A divided nation

[skypilot]

Sanders is a foolish socialist with and idea of one. He wants to trade economic growth for wholesale redistribution of wealth to an exact equality by breaking up banks, getting rid of 23 kinds of deodorant, etc.

Actually considering the 1st sentence, one really doesn't need to even read the second.

Ummm - no. Sanders has made expensive promises that have to be paid for by the working man.

Sanders is more the champion of the welfare state.
What the people are looking for is someone to champion the working man.
And I don't mean the union or public service working man, I mean the working man that has to look after himself.

I like how some ppl still cling to the foolish notion that somehow we're not more socialist than capitalist already.

We share the cost of pretty much everything, yet someone who openly addresses the socialist nature of our society is to be vilified? Weird.

There are very few men looking after themselves. And even fewer actually want to. It's not just the unionized or public servants that are looking for others to look after them, everyone who holds a job working for someone else, is looking for a caretaker. They're too afraid to take the risks to forge out on their own.

And there's nothing wrong with that. It's human nature. And when you have a group of people you care about... like, say... a nation... it's also human nature to want to help those around you, and hope they're there to help you if/when you need it also.

I don't think he's allowed to carpet-bomb the Chicago hippies.

Sure you can, grateful dead and Neil Young are touring again they could do some songs about it after

Way to go punks, yell, scream, be heard.

This stuff going on is paralleling Europe of the 1920-30s way too closely, it is time to stand up and be heard all over the world, this idiot needs to be recognized for what he is and what he is trying to do.

Pretty unbelievable in this week's debate. Trump says the solution is to "eliminate the families of terrorists too". The chairman of the debate said, " That is against the law Mr Trump." Trump says , "Well, we will just have to change the law."

Interesting times for sure. Funny thing though , if Trump is such a racist Nazi why did the only black candidate drop out and put his support behind Trump.??

Not surprised at all. His grandfather started the family business by trafficking women in the Klondike. His father was KKK. What could possibly go wrong with someone raised by people like that?

No doubt that Americans are sick of the establishment and are flocking to the outsider who says what they want to hear....in that sense I'd have to agree with Fox.

they do need an outsider but one who has a head on his shoulders and who will unite people not divide them

i think Cruz has sounded a bit wacky in the past also

[duckduckgoose]

I find it odd that everyone is convinced Trump is an outsider. He was born rich; he's been supporting candidates for years - he's likely more on the inside than most presidents. I remember people used to refer to the Koch brothers as sort of political puppet-masters because they could buy candidates; has Trump been this deep on the inside too with his past support? He obviously owned Romney last time around...

The old boys club in the white house has been kicked to the curb. Trump is going g to shake things up.and I am all for it.the bulls in the white house have run into a real road block with trump and the people have had enough of the same old boy running the country the same way for the last 30 years. Time for a very big change. Dutch

[Fox]

I chuckle when JoePA comes on here and says on one hand that there needs to be free speech and that you should not get in trouble for being in the media and being racist and homophobic (Duck Dynasty) but when it comes to the definition of free speech in the US he wants them silenced and remove their voting rights.

This is what scares me, history is destined to repeat itself unless measures are taken to stop it. When the Nazi party setup rallies in areas with heavy communist and or jewish populations then knew what they were doing. Trump goes into a city like Chicago and essentially does the same thing trying to stir up people.

Remember, you speak against him he will sue you and put up charges against you, not quashing the public at all, ha ha.
