RKMBs Forums .::Important::. Politics and Current Events Bernie Sanders in 2016?

Washington Post: Hillary Clinton’s national lead is slipping faster in 2016 than it did in 2008

lol, I wouldn't mind Sanders becoming President. Either one is good.

I would vote for Bernie over Hilltard any day.

I think I will be enjoying this election season.

The record will reflect that MEM just admitted that he supports socialism.

Yeah so what? One of our greatest Presidents FDR was one. Considering how far the GOP has moved to the extreme right Reagan probably would be found to be to "socialist" these days. BTW both Clinton and Sanders understand freedom of religion and how that is a constitutional right.

No wonder democratic candidates have had so much trouble trying to explain the difference between a democrat and a socialist lately

Lol, which GOP candidates are on record of wanting to get rid of Social Security, Medicare and all those other socialist programs btw?

Moderate voters were never as key a demographic as establishment cunts would have us believe. Ann Coulter did a yeoman job of demonstrating the uselessness of "moderate" voters.

But regardless, with each passing week, I hear more and more about people leaving behind the old "moderate" saw and simply going against the Democrats.

Chicago, Detroit, LA, Flint--they have built up a mountain of ill will and the media is failing to conceal it as well as it used to.

I'm sure many like always will vote for the R but I doubt places like Flint are much of a talking point for conservatives. People can get a good look at Republicans in charge and judge their performance while their citizens are drinking poison.

Wow. It's like MSNBC's coverage of Detroit all over again.

"It's the Republicans' fault!! ......even though it's run by Democrats...."

Sorry but your talking to somebody who knows very well that republican Governor Snyder appointed an emergency manager to make financial decisions regarding Flint. If you don't understand how that works please do some reading up on it

I didn't realize that Rick Snyder was also the democratic mayor(s) of Flint.

You learn something new every day.

He also directed that godawful Suckerpunch film.

Meaning that you probably blamed Katrina on George Bush.

If democrats are in the immediate vicinity of responsibility, you just have to keep climbing the ladder until you find a republican to shift blame upon. That's the Whomod way.....and the DEM way.

Yeah, funny how Katrina was Bush's fault and Flint isn't Obama's.

No one is defending his crappy directing.

....Hell, MEM was the one who brought him up out of desperation in the first place.

Lol, I can keep posting this Pariah. Snyder is responsible for installing the emergency manager that trumped the mayor's decisions. When the mayor wanted to switch back to the unleaded water for example, Snyder's guy nixed it. That doesn't even get into Snyder's foot dragging and other decisions made and not made while his people drank poison.

You can imitate Prometheus all you like. But it's not going to render a higher political echelon--far removed from the mayoral seat of Flint--ultimately responsible for the crisis. The same one that ran the city so far into the ground culturally and financially that they had to switch to a less expensive water supply in the first place. Unless, of course, you're going to argue that Snyder reached down from his Governor's cloud like the hand of Odin and told the city to switch their water-source regardless of solvency.

But to add insult to injury, your ilk are the types who appreciate an extremely centralized power making decisions for every level from an upper tier. And now that you've seen the result of that level of bureaucracy actually being implemented, you try to blame the actors involved rather than your pet system. That kind of backpedaling identifies a halfway point between hypocrisy and charlatanry.

Yeah, look I'm fine with you and the republican party defending Snyder and his administration. Read the emails he didn't redact and ponder why he waited so long to act as children drank poison water. Keep ignoring that he appointed an emergency manager that over ruled the democratically elected mayor. I think it's good for people to see the GOP in "action".
