    Sanders is the only guy who actually makes sense. He doesn't speak in political double talk and doesn't play to nation's basest fears or prejudices. Everybody else, just a rehash.

    I do understand that in America left-right spectrum is totally different, but in the rest of the world, Sanders is your normal, moderate, everyday, run-of-the-mill, center left guy.

    If Sanders gets elected, he will tax away the money I need to pay for my extremely expensive health care, and for the EZ-Pass I use for the extremely expensive toll roads, and for the extremely expensive rent that my slumlord keeps raising and for the extremely expensive student debt I pay 9% interest on. This socialist will rob me of my wealth!

    Don't care.

    There is no one running for this office I would trust not to eat a sack lunch I have left with them but someone thinks they should run a country?

    Yeah, but he's not running for president of "the rest of the world", so to hell with him. He's just another left wing pinko demagogue who is very focused on stripping the wealth of the top 1 percent instead of focusing on increasing the wealth of the remaining 99.

    Given that wealth is relative, how can you do one without the other?
    By increasing the size of the planet and its resources?

    Well I suppose if you buy into the idea that the president of the US is the leader of the free world, then I guess he is kinda running for the president of "the rest of the world."

    And your comment reminds me of someone who only hears the "tax the wealthy more" part of his plan and ignores the rest of his plan to help the middle and lower classes.

    That dirty Socialist is going to tax these righteous citizens that make more money each minute than I and mine will see in our life times. Dirty hippy is then going to give out free college edumatcations like ma chilluns need that. I and mine are going to McDonalds to use our god given food stamps. BYE

    On a side note: Same people who believe "Trickle down economics" actually works. Who the hell builds a house from the roof down. No one. You put money into the lower and middle class to build the economy. Not hoard it in the upper classes.

    I think trickle down economics is equivalent to feeding scraps to the dog underneath the dinner table.

    Lincoln Chaffee was so embarrassing, they should just exile him from the party on principle. I will vote for Jim Webb because I would rather have the NSA wasting its time tracking down the man who threw a grenade at President Webb 30 years ago then looking at my porn habits.

    So Webb, continuing his theme of complaining about how he didnt get enough time, decided to drop out of the Democratic race but Im not entirely sure if hes dropping out of the race altogether.

    And Biden says hes not going to run which basically seals the nomination for Hillary.

    Meanwhile Carson said that he has the power of God behind his campaign. I wonder what thats like.

    So if he fails does that mean he isn't a good disciple or that there isn't a god?

    Is he shouting out "Oh Gawd! Take me now from behind! Oh Gawd!"

    Since he is black, the chance of that happening is high though, no?

    What I do know though is that a rather large percentage of the African Americans Ive talked to about Carson regard him as an Uncle Tom.

    But my original comment about him in prison was a reference to his earlier comment about how going to prison turns you gay.

    I'd vote for him.

    The whole "unelectable" and "can't do anything anyway" is just propaganda to perpetuate the status quo. Even if the latter is true, voting for the status quo will only cement that fact. Therefore, either dare to vote for a change or succumb to your puppet masters.

    So in tonights CNBC Republican debate, the moderator asked Ted Cruz a very valid question about how Cruz really doesnt like compromising. Instead of answering the question, Cruz went on a rant about how the media is all liberal and biased and all of that. While I do agree that the debate was mishandled, the questions posed just highlighted how stupid the positions the candidates are taking on policy.

    Rubio, Cruz and Christie looked strong. Jeb may just drop out of embarrassment. Trump had his moments and it is telling that the media wants to claim he was "silent" throughout most of the debate when he still was 4th out of 10 in total speaking time.

    Cruz might have looked strong, but it was just a smokescreen. Instead of actually answering valid questions, he just attacked the moderators and the media as a whole, thus avoiding the hard questions. Literally the definition of "pop smoke and run." And the rest of the candidates followed suit. What a show.

    Cruz was strong because he said the right things. Audit the fed, remove the IRS, gold standard, blame the media. Just hand him the tea party votes.
