Party line stuff?

Tuition free public Universities?

$15 an hour minimum wage?

Medicare for all?

Return to the 90% top tax bracket?

No, Bernie is way beyond the corporate Democratic Party line.

He's advocating real Western European type Democratic So************************m.

Something no other candidate has the balls to push.

Ye ghods man, we are awash in right wing BS, from 'Benghazi is Treason' to 'Bernie Sanders is a Nazi' to 'Planned Parenthood is a eugenic plot against people of color' (but you didn't say racist, and it's wrong to say you did).

But the left is 'just as bad?' They are not. It would not make your guys OK if they were, but they are not, not even close. Show the examples if you disagree.

It's very unbecoming.

Your side believes that poor people are for the most part poor because they are worthless loser slackers who voted for Obama because he gives them free stuff.
You know it's true.

And don't give me that "don't put me in a box" crap.

You jumped in that box every time you carry water for the right, which is what you have done in this thread.

There is the rub - objectivity is non existent - thread after thread of quoted media, candidates devolves into "your lies are worse than our lies."

All that aside, this country is too large and too diverse to be managed effectively with a Euro style system - advocates of such a system would be better served to make their case State by State. Those efforts have already met with some success.

You want to live in a world where all is left or right - all good.

I'm not joining any clubs today.

We are, eh? How's about you speak for yourself.

I want to live in a USA that is more like Western Europe.

And I don't think that is too much to ask at all.
