    This ain't Russia, pal. This kind of stuff doesn't fly here in the States.

    As for Bernie, if that moron gets the Dem nomination, that just means that a republican, any republican will be our next prez. Yes, even Trump.

    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.

    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.
