Seriously, we have bigger politicians to fry than Bernie Sanders.
I'd agree with you that the guy is probably tone deaf to other folks. The dude continues on preaching on the same message of narrowing the gap between rich and poor since the very beginning of his career. The problem is probably gazillion times worse now... and he's still at it.
Most non-tone deaf folks probably would've given up by now... by either the sound of money or of hopelessness...
The dude has integrity. That's why the Bernie-or-busters love him.
Conservative politicians hide their BS behind Jesus Christ. As if pretending to be a Godly Christian man make you well suited for the job.
Liberal politicians hide their BS behind political correctness. As if pretending to supporting gay, minority, illegal immigrant rights or whatever cool at the moment make you well suited for the job.
Don't get me wrong, Liberals are still by far way better than Conservatives. Obama is way better than W and probably most other republican presidents! However, even Obama has integrity issues. From the beginning as a Jr Senator who claimed that he's not going to run for president... to the eventual record holder of withholding FOIA requests and surveillance crap. So I don't fully trust what Obama would do behind closed doors... and I trust Hillary even less... naturally I trust Trump the least. That's why I voted for neither.
You can settle for the lesser of 2 evil to try to avoid Trump. That's fine. It's your vote.
I'd continue my tone deaf kinda vote.
Seriously, 800,000 people whose status is in limbo is a more important issue than the health of hundreds of million of Americans? Must we fight so hard for dreamers to the extent of shutting down government? I'm glad the democratic senators blinked 1st rather than continue to hold the nation hostage like that.
I'm sick of these ideological fights.
Bernie Sanders don't play that. He's more focused on actually solving fucking problems for average Americans.
I do hope dreamers can eventually become Americans too rather than be deported. However, I also have no problems putting Americans 1st. We have to set our priorities straight.
I gotta feed my family 1st before I feed the poor.
