2020 Primaries

There is a center left candidate. A damn good one too..
Bernie will lose in a landslide if he is the nominee.

The DNC may have to step in again for Pete to get his shot.

For me there's no D candidate I can vote for. Can't vote Trump either. It will be another year of 3rd party for me.

I think Bernie needs the breaks beat off of him in an election so we can put this whole socialist revolution bs to bed .

Pete is way left of center.

I think you're so far right you can't even see center anymore.

 

[luthervol]

You honestly think pocketbook voters are going to split 50/50 for a socialist revolution in America ?

Sure, people who want their student loans forgiven, people who want more affordable health care, people who want a restructured progressive tax system..............we're talking millions of people who could see Bernie as being in the best interest of their pocket book.

 

[0nelilreb]

I think you're so far right you can't even see center anymore.

You do realize the what “ center “ means right ? It’s not on the left .

 

[luthervol]

If you had a moderate D candidate that may happen since Trump is so disliked.

But Bernie? That's going way beyond "what's best for the pockebook."

Just depends on who's pocket book.

I did say center left btw.

I'm the definition of center.

I'd rather him have a resounding defeat in the primaries. My only hope is that the traditional D vote is being spread out among several D candidates.

I haven't seen much about third party candidates yet. Guess it is still too far out.

 

[volfanjustin]

You would have hated FDR. You all call anyone including Hillary and Bloomberg a Commie. And those are practically center right politicians.

I love this though. If you don't believe it, you won't prepare.

I want Bernie to be the underdog, makes the election easy for us.

I hope you vote Bernie in the primary since you think it will be an easier election for Trump.

I wouldn’t call Hillary or Bloomberg a commie, Hillary would do anything to get elected and with Bloomberg outside of his anti gun stance he has to be thinking “how in the hell did I end up with this group”

Sure, people who want their student loans forgiven, people who want more affordable health care, people who want a restructured progressive tax system..............we're talking millions of people who could see Bernie as being in the best interest of their pocket book.

Then they are shortsighted.

When has a socialist ever been in anybody best interest ? That is certainly not rational or reasonable .

 

[hog88]

I did say center left btw.

Yes you did. I think your center is further left than mine.

 

[VolnJC]

It's starting to come back but for the last 15-20 years for the most part no.

Back in my hometown the county built a state of the art "industrial arts" facility at our HS in 84 or so. It had commercial grade wood working, welding and automotive facilities. They also offered cosmetology which lead to being licensed at graduation. When they built the new HS about 10 years ago they demolished the industrial arts facility and stopped offering any of those courses.

Wow what a waste..my school had lots of blue collar ready jobs...I ran the school store and learned how to ready the registers and order stock so I could do pretty much what our grocery managers were doing at 17..we also got to leave school at lunch if we had a job...times sure have changed

Let's start this Saturday and then on Tuesday.

Why should student loans be forgiven? Why not credit card debt, mortgages, or IRS debts?

 

[volfanjustin]

Pete is way left of center.

Exactly right, he just speaks better than the rest. Remember from the last debate he said he agrees with where bernies policies are going

 

[zeppelin128]

Yes you did. I think your center is further left than mine.

Probably true.

 

[VolnJC]

Do you? If the HS's don't, they should.

We home school because my son is autistic not because we have anything against the schools here

I don't think that the people understand that the banks are going to get paid. They aren't writing off trillions of dollars. That means the taxpayers will be paying the financial institutions. I don't think they get it.

We could leave HS as an ASE certified mechanic, two years into a welding apprenticeship (I think the same for electrician) or a licensed cosmetologist.

Do you have good community resources for your son?

They don’t and I don’t think they care because it won’t be them.

We need to model our high schools after Germany. If you want in Germany, the last two years of high school you can participate in an apprenticeship program for various trades. When you graduate you can get a good paying, stable job. I've always thought that is one European plan we should copy.
