Bernie Sanders is gaining on Hillary Clinton in Iowa and New Hampshire.
According to two polls, one taken in Iowa by West Des Moines-based Selzer & Co. and Washington-area Purple Strategies in New Hampshire, the latter done in cooperation with Saint Anselm College, show Sanders polling at 24%.
In Iowa, Clinton leads Sanders 50 percent to 24 percent, and in New Hampshire, 56 percent to 24 percent. That's a six- to eight-point increase in his support since those states were polled by Bloomberg Politics and partners in May.
It still doesn't appear that he will successfully challenge Hillary, but he is much more of a threat to the country than the hated Hillary. If he climbs further, it will only because a good part of the masses actually think his socialist views make sense.
Stop Bernie!

You are wrong Wenzel. It is better to vote for Sanders over someone like Ron Paul because it’s the best way to torpedo the state. Remember, Ron Paul was a constitutionalist who hindered the real cause.

ReplyDeleteMy anecdotal experiences seem to reflect this....I'm shocked that I run into people that are unashamed Socialists. It seems to me that there was at least a stigma to saying such a thing just 20 years ago...
A friend of mine's 21 year old son proudly wears a hammer and cycle necklace and my former assistant manager just posted on facebook this morning that she was a commie and didn't appreciate being force to work 40 hours a week.
DeleteThe USA is already a socialist military-police state. There are too many laws to list that infringe on the private ownership of people's bodies and their property.
ReplyDeleteAt least Sanders is honest about his thievery where as the other candidates will utter bromides to "freedom" and "private property."
Voting for Hillary rather than Sanders seems like political advice from the black-face actor in the movie Tropic Thunder. He advised a fellow actor "never go full retard." RW seems to be advising the same thing in a political context. Better not to be retarded at all. Improve your own mental health and stop voting.
ReplyDeleteOk. Sanders claims he is a socialist. I think it would be good to see him move up in the polls. Republicans would attack. Hillary would have adapt.
ReplyDeleteI don't think he wins and if he did congress wouldn't help him too much.
Besides we are living in a fascist state now, would it be that much diffrent if it were socialist? Maybe we would have fewer wars.
I want to see what a peace economy would look like because it seems like an awful lot of limited resources are wasted on blowing stuff up. Fire works are a much cheaper explosion porn.
