    Absolutely! Outside of the US, Bernie would be considered a Centrist.

    Ugh, how horrible!

    Can you imagine a society of healthy, smart, employed people who live on a clean planet!?

    Sounds terrible.

    I saw a demographic breakdown of people's reactions to Bloomberg's debate. They had 9 groups and only 1 had Bloomberg go up. It was conservatives. That gives you a clue that they do not see or hear what the rest of the world hears.

    But he for sure has been rising in the Dims polls. So a large number of you Dims must have no principles.
    Trump doesn't wear glasses because he already has 2020.

    It's saying that one thing will definitely lead to another. Give everyone healthcare and then what? Will we have to give everyone a car? That's the slippery slope fallacy. The Right used to use it with gay marriage all the time. Let people of the same gender get married and then what? What about people who want to marry animals?!

    Not sure how much he'll be rising after what happened to him on Wednesday.

    I'm not sure he's going to crack 10% in any Super Tuesday state.

    I say, let's start with giving everyone health care, see how it goes, and then we can go from there.

    Yes, people should have life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Life, it's literally the first one.

    You can't pursue happiness if you're chronically sick or bankrupt from medical bills.
