Bernie Sanders calls for “21st Century Bill of Rights”

[Cinnabar]

Kudos to Bernie Sanders as he knocks it out of the park...AGAIN!!!

Sen. Bernie Sanders delivered a vigorous defense of democratic socialism in a lengthy speech at George Washington University on Wednesday. He called for a "21st Century Bill of Rights," invoking the legacy of Franklin D. Roosevelt and the New Deal while taking aim at President Trump.
Such brilliance it should have been televised by every network live.

If the (D)s want to win the WH in 2020, they need to seriously support this guy as a candidate. My kids (ages 32 - 44) support him, as do dozens of other ppl in their age cohort that I know personally. They're fairly meh about Biden and the others.

Warren is brilliant as well. They would make a great ticket.

I would give them a serious consideration. I'd still like to see some of our younger progressives get in the mix.

After the debates we will know who the actual Progressives are. I am not so sure that the younger ones have the most Progressive voting records and/or stances on the policies.

You need people with some experience. Knowing their way around Congress and how to work with others.

Not only does it appear feel the Bern is a washed up operative as another Russian puppet or a communist plant in Congress who preyed on and tricked Independents, and went after the youth with false promises of free this and free that but with the intent to give them all the shaft too. Feeling the Bern has been exposed as a communist operative who worked with other antiAmerican elements like Jill Stein to destroy the legitmacy of the 2016 election in a demagogue and tyrant tRump's favor, and in violation of U.S. Constitutional law, etc. As such, feeling the Bern should be tossed out like yesterday's garbage as a washed up old fart and another disgrace to U.S. governance.

From one of my friends, borrowed with permission:
~~~

Things I can guarantee you will not hear on either of the two nights of the first Democratic debate:

1) References to the size of one's penis, or to be bi-gender, bra size;

2) References to how ugly another candidate's face is, so ugly no one could imagine him or her being president;

3) Implications that another candidate has lost bladder control and is standing in a pool of urine;

4) Observations that a candidate is slow to return after the break because the candidate is still in the bathroom;

5) Slurs directed to a candidate's mother, or brother, or any other relative;

6) Any third-grade level name calling of any other candidate.

What you will hear:

1) People speaking in complete and grammatically correct sentences. You may not agree with what they have to say, but you will understand it.

Wow, that's fucked up, raising commies.

They now love the Russian way. They love everything in that manifesto. Putin is now their hero along with the old Comrad Bernie.

But but but Putin controls Trump, according to them. This is all so confusing...

You have to remember that these folks get confused about their own gender so politics really throws them for loop.
