Let's play "Fantasy Politics", Dave. Can you name a ticket that you'd gladly vote for and also an opposing ticket that would tempt you?

The Right would insist that pointing out racism is itself racist, that decrying the excesses of capitalists and oligarchs is class warfare and that objecting to the ridiculing of the disabled is pandering for sympathy and "special treatment".

Or as I was once told, "Whining about racism is just hating on rednecks.". LOL!

As far as the primary goes, I have never felt better about voting than I do this time because of Bernie Sanders. Bernie has shown me what a Democrat is supposed to stand for. However, if he does not get the nomination then I will have a problem voting in the general election. I'll vote, but I can't say which way.

But no health insurance to pay for. There are puts and takes, devil is in the details, and do you really trust the guys who told you 12%? It's no more than a guess, that's for sure.

Shit, where do I get in line to sign up!?
I'd gladly pay 12% more in income tax to do away with the 20% plus that I am paying out to Health Insurance Companies.

I don't believe he can pull that one off. To many in congress against him. Hell even Obama couldn't do it so what makes you think Bernie can ?
