  1. Jesus did Fury control that.
  2. We've discussed this in the Bernie thread, but I really don't see him picking someone who, unfortunately because of his age, wouldn't pick up his leftist movement and push damn near as hard as he will. Tammy Baldwin has been floated as the person who is progressive, from the mid-west (Wisconsin), and has been on record supporting M4A.
  3. I'm 100% behind Warren as VP and my plan all along was to vote for her or Bernie depending on who had the lead coming into Georgia. Also, Ilhan Omar would be a good VP and for the record she has never identified as a DSA, she is a progressive who isn't trying to label herself. In fact here is a picture of me and my daughter taken by wife at a Warren rally in Lawrenceville, GA near where we live in the Atlanta suburbs not long after she announced before Bernie did, she smartly was trying to target the suburbs in Georgia where we could be a possible swing state. I know you don't know me, but to paint me as a stereotypical whatever Bro in one post where I'm am chastising the worst of the racist bigots that support Trump is strange to me coming from you.
  4. To be clear, Ilhan Omar is a Muslim woman of color and you think that it's stupid to pick her as VP because she's too alienating? She is the only one who had the damn guts to stand up to Elliot Abrams for the massacres he helped orchestrate (e.g. El Mozote massacre) after he was freaking revived from the dead to deal with Venezuela. She, at least in my opinion, would be one of the best Vice Presidents we've ever had as a country to truly represent what the US's population really is. Like I'm not sure of how familiar you are with her as a progressive representative, but anyone who is that Islamophobic isn't going to vote Democrat. If we want to argue about what she's done in terms of actual work then that's fine but it doesn't seem to me that you're suggesting this is dumb because she's inexperienced. I'm not trying to be insensitive to who you are either, I know you live a much more difficult life than my white male cis-het ass. I'm just genuinely surprised as to what your reaction is here and I'm wondering if it has to deal with other posters on this site and less to do with Bernie's actual supporters.
  5. I'm sorry, are you seriously suggesting that we need to be nice to MAGA people? That was what my post was clearly about. Bernie literally was shit on because he suggested that Trump voters didn't vote exclusively on racism.
  6. Am I taking crazy pills? Isn't this what "Bernie Bros' were constantly lectured about since Trump won because they didn't show up to vote for Hillary?
  7. Also keep forgetting to post this regularly now, MAGA shithead gets knocked out by Kevin Lee a while back.
  8. I see your new avatar lol!
  9. I like Beto, but I really don't see him not picking someone who has a track record as being very very progressive and on the books for supporting M4A and probably a GND.
  10. Yes, I was 100% serious in that Ilhan Omar, a first term US rep, should be the VP for no other reason than spite and that no other person, even if more qualified and important, should be considered.
  11. Bernie currently has 54.2% of the CCD (whatever the fuck kind of delegate metric that is) and you were the guy who kept saying he can't win because he isn't getting enough people coalescing behind him. Now you've just straight up moved onto whatever numbers he gets he'll just lose to Trump?
  12. She wasn't born a US Citizen so she's ineligible. I'd kill to see her though because probably a good 10% of MAGA shitheads would die anger induced heart attacks.
  13. Pete is actually warning against Sanders after they've already called it for Smooth Bernie because of socialism blah blah. This is the results thus far, perhaps your message isn't a winning one in states that aren't 90% white.
  14. The most diverse state thus far in the primary, a state that I believe isn't even majority white, and Bernie is just destroying the competition if these results hold.
  15. Chuck Rocha is quite possibly the most important person on Sanders' team, I've posted that before but I think we're really going to see it validated here in a few hours.
  16. You could say the same for literally all the other candidates though. I've posted this thought several times but this is about a movement to push the party back to it being closer to FDR and to give hopefully my daughter's generation hope that someday she won't have to worry about being bankrupted by medical bill, taking out tens of thousands of dollars in student loans or hoping we can afford to save up that kind of money, as well as taking extreme steps to address climate change. If he fails it every single thing at the very least you will see that the appetite is there among the voters.
  17. Almost like this whole narrative doesn't pan out in real life.
  18. Bernie bro harassment must have really worked on these members I bet.
  19. Also this person works for the Nevada Democratic party and saying there's definitely not a problem with a volunteer shortage.
  20. Just straight up not even trying to hide their bias, yet it's a conspiracy to say he doesn't get fair media coverage.
  21. Bernie beats Trump (hotel)
  22. I think since Reagan the Dems have done a very poor job of actually helping material interests of working people minus a few key pieces of legislation. For as much credit as we can give Nancy pelosi she literally will not even bring a Medicare for all bill to have even a floor vote, not try to pass it in the house even.
  23. and I'm speaking to the idea that Bernie is somehow going to undo all the work the Democratic party has done just because he used the phrase "Democratic establishment." It's foolish and grasping at straws.
  24. I mean, how is this even possible even in an exit poll? I was told Bernie alienates all the moderates and conservatives in the party. Yes major grain of salt still
  25. I was told on Surly thar Bernie has to get 70 plus percent of all votes in order to have even a snowball's chance in hell of beating Trump.
