Bernie Sanders had a pretty good weekend, crushing Hillary Clinton in all three states. Minority voters also felt the bern.

. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcKrqqhyxxU .

"Meanwhile, Bernie Sanders won his three contests in ultra-diverse states — Alaska, Hawaii, and Washington — with 81.6%, 69.8%, and 72.7% shares of the vote, respectively.

In all three states, Sanders exceeded expectations dramatically. Polling website FiveThirtyEight.com had predicted 8-point wins for Sanders in Hawaii and Alaska, and a more generous 17-point win in Washington.

Instead, Sanders won Alaska by 61.5 points, Hawaii by 39.8, and Washington — the largest of the three Western Saturday states — by a jaw-dropping 45.6 points.

(As a side note, Sanders also just won the Democrats Abroad primary — which awards as many delegates as do Alaska, Vermont, or Wyoming — 69% to 30%.”

Let's see. If I were an honest Democrat and really (I mean "really") interested in the betterment of the nation, which would I pick? Should I pick Hillary, a female with tons of political experience (and we all know that much of it would not be considered "good-for-the-nation" experience); or, should I pick Bernie, a real old guy who admits that he is a socialist and has a bunch more free stuff to offer than does Hillary?

At least Bernie appears to be an honest socialist. I mean, at least he admits what he is without much fuzzy façade. Hillary is pretty much all façade. The majority of Lefties know she's mostly façade but that doesn't matter to them. She has the "people of color" vote in her pocket as her husband was "the first black president," and we all know of the tremendous advancements people of color made under their administration (not to mention Obama's administration). The one's who like Bernie are obviously those who want free stuff (free-to-them stuff). What can you not like about free stuff for all?

Still, it would be a dilemma. Since I'm 80, I could probably identify with Bernie more so than Hillary. At 80, I'm probably more ready for free stuff than middle age people are. The young are like me..... free sounds good. Okay, someone has to pay for it, I know. Old people know the nothing is really free. The young are snowed over that idea. They actually believe in money trees. The middle aged people will actually pay for all free stuff.... the middle age folks who are actually working. The really rich and political leaders will still have their above socialism money trees, for their efforts to provide equality to the rest. At least that seems to be the way it works in real socialistic countries.

The choice isn't easy. Maybe I'll just stay home on election day. What difference does one vote make.... except maybe in Congress and the Supreme Court? I'm not either in Congress or on the Supreme Court.

Maybe I'll wait and see what the mess on the GOP side offers when no body reaches the 1237 delegates. I mean, Kasich could really have a shot at it.

How much do you think all these wars half a world away are costing the US? How much are we paying into the pockets of corperations who have the president in their back pocket? Trump is part of that crowd and freely admits to it. Do you really think that oh, just because he is now touting off about having this newfound concern for making America great again that he will change his spots? Trump has made a history out of stiffing people to get ahead, unpaid contractors, bankrupcies.

Bernie has a record of practice what he preach that is comparable to Ron Paul. No one in the running has anything close to that, they all are well proven liers.

There are good republicans and democrats but for whatever reason they don't get over. Ron Paul, Rand Paul, and for the moment, the best choice still in the running is in fact Sanders. Would he be my first choice, probibly not, I like Jesse Ventura, or Adam Kokesh, Gary Johnson, but I'm not seeing anything out of these guys right now.

Hillary's experance would only serve the establishment. I still think Trump is a shill for Hillary, he don't act like a serious canadate

No, no! Trump wants to put a stop to all that help to the "ungratefuls." You heard what he said about NATO, what he said about letting Russia bomb ISIS, about putting a stop to giving military aid and support to nations like rich Saudi Arabia, and Japan without "payment;" and, he is paying for his own campaigning with no help from the big money people ... like the rest on both sides.

A billionaire pays for his own campaign or a billionaire pays for someone else's campaign, Their economic interests are the same. History did not begin for Trump last year. Go back and see what politicians got his money and for what.


Then come back with this "straight shooter" crap.

Ron Paul - Donald Trump Is Part of the Problem- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0r_SWuI53uo

I think you are reading alot of wishful thinking into what he is saying. Assuming he is even being honest. He isn't talking about putting an end to these unconstitutional wars, in fact he has mentioned building up our military even more, upgrading calling it outdated. Sounds like a war monger to me. He claims to believe the 9/11 attacks were staged, an inside job. Now I agree with him on that, but he says nothing about the ones who staged them, doing an investigation or holding the CIA and Bush administration accountable.

'Make America Great Again' by Abolishing Liberty- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dhJ1eMJyLg

It's likely no surprise that I don't agree with him about the police, who are a big part of the problem with what is wrong with the US decline. Why should anyone want to work, or try to better themselves when cops take it all away and we all are treated as criminals. The police Trump loves so much are destructive to this country second only to smoking.

Is Donald Trump the 'Wizard of Ooze?- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9BI3oCtqUQ

Lastly, the wall and this ban on Muslims. Just nonsensical BS. These are the kinds of things I might come up with if I was tryin to throw the election and not become president.

You Lefties always act like it's only the Right that gets money from big business. Hillary is the Queen (King) of contributions:

Hillary leads the pack for present campaigns
1. She leads in total received and total spent!

2. For Super PACs and Pac money received, she beats Trump. Hillary $57.5 million to Trumps $1.8 million!
(She leads in total received from Super PACs and other PACs except for Bush, and we see where he is)

3. For Total received, Hillary $188 million to Trump's $27.3 million ($25.5 million of that came from himself)


Then Look at Hillary's history of monies received:


Top Contributors

Top Industries and Sectors


Clinton tops 2016 field in drug industry donations



Now, if you guys would provide your totals with reputable links concerning Trump's contribution receivables and expenditures, to give support to your position and straightness of shot.

Yes, and it's like I said, Trump is a shill for Hillary Clinton. They put him in there to break things up on the other (republican) side and give Clinton more credibility. Only it's not working, that's how bad Hillary is, many people would still rather Trump, in spite of his BS.

Of course, I agree, but same can be said for Trump. Birds of a feather flock together, you think he don't have wealthy friends, or think he wouldn't do them favors? He has confessed to these crimes, admitted he in fact has paid those in government for political favors. Oh, but I suppose that was bad Trump, he is gone now we have good Trump. Now that's a sobering thought, think about how much Chaney handed over to Haliburtin under the guise of no bid contracts. This after staging attacks that killed so many to justify wars and restrictions on freedom and rights. Could this wall thing be a rouse as well, to line the pockets of Trump's friends in the construction business?

Makes sense now, as president he will need these corrupt and sadistic cops, so talk them up now. The only silver lining at least for me is that these cops, I have been the victim of for so many years will be victims of Trump, won over by flattery. Cops after all, as corrupt and sadistic as they are, do have that big shot complex. They won't see that Trump is a bigger threat to them than me telling the truth about them that few if any believe anyhow. Yet they buy into this wall and how Trump's way is gonna make America great for them.
