    Vast right wing conspiracy against her for emails and Benghazi.

    Bernie Sanders is totally unelectable in 2016. Weird accent, too old and nerdy, conscientious objector, says we need to look to Denmark as a model for our country.

      He cracks me up. I'd never vote for him but he's almost as fun to watch as trump. Hillary is so dirty it freaks me out. Webb is a closet republican. O'malley seems reasonable but doesn't stand a chance. The other guy (can't remember his name) just seems happy to be alive.

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

        That debate was so much fun to watch. I am in love with Bernie Sanders, but O'Malley killed it with his closing statement. Unfortunately for him it was a great summation for the party and not so much for him, but who wants to nitpick.

          I can see Bernie's appeal. His style seems more direct and honest than your typical politician (big contrast with Hillary tonight).

            Yep he's authentic I guess -- you can say that for him.

                I may have missed it, but is there anyone on the board who would vote for this guy for President.

                I am not looking to mock anyone. Heck, there are wonderful people in England, France, Germany and I am sure many other countries that are socialist.

                I just think Bernie's ideas for so many free things is lala land thinking.
                I love his message...too much wealth belongs to too few people. I would have no problem voting for a socialist candidate if I thought socialism was economically viable.

                  I agree he is most likely unelectable. But he is interesting.

                    Can anyone tell me where Bernie is going to get all the money he needs for all his government will provide for free agenda?

                    I too appreciate his genuineness and being straightforward. I would rather have a robber call me up and let me know he is going to rob me during the day than one who just sneaks up behind me without warning.

                        That is an answer I would expect from people who are clueless but not someone as brilliant as yourself.

                        Perhaps you are saying that is Bernie's answer and not yours. If so my regard for your intellect is not lessened by your answer.

                          Huh? I answered your question. Yes that is what he is saying. Which you could verify in five seconds with Google.

                            OK, sorry. Good smart ass answer on your part.

                            Anyone have anything of more substance as to where he is going to get the money?
