Right?!? The Democratic base is disengaged as is.
Two old whites on the same ticket= a disaster.
They need someone who can push minority turnout (either black or Hispanic) not a mumbling socialist/commie

Do you mind elaborating how Bernie is a communist?
"Bernie is insensitive to black people and Hillary has been nothing but honest"
I didn't agree with this statement either and I'm supporting Hillary.
I think both are sensitive and care for the African American community. But I do agree with him that Hillary seems a lot more electable even with all the scandals.
Hillary is still winning without superdelegates... By almost 200 pledged delegates, so....
Okay? That wasn't even Pelosi's point, it wasn't Marvin's point, it wasn't Adonis' point.
The Democratic-based superdelagate system is clearly inequitable and the party's leader in the House agrees. It was designed to shift in favor of grassroots campaigning and that's exactly what it isn't doing; the structure is backfiring, it's a flop.
Why wouldn't he lead the revolution as the most powerful man on earth? What a terrible argument.
But seriously? You don't know what he wants to revolutionize? You don't know or you don't think anything needs to change in our political system today?
Because a "political revolution" doesn't start from the top down, it starts from the bottom up. Your HOUSE REPS and SENATORS is where the revolution should start. Fill those vacancies with the Progressives that fit the ideology of the movement. Congress is where the legislation starts and they can by-pass the POTUS and his/her veto with 2/3 support. Change at the top isn't gonna fix the problems at the bottom, who really have the most power. Sure a President has an Executive Action power, but a President can also be impeached with congress, so there is that. The bottom has power, you just need to have the people there.

But there has to be someone leading. Bernie (or any presidential candidate in general) is the only person that can reach all areas of the country. Most people only worry about their state's Congress members. There has to be someone with a big enough audience, and Bernie has the platform. A potential member of Congress won't.
My school has lots of Bernie support and today this Bernie Stan was talking to a trump Stan saying "man im gonna spend lots of money on college next year" and the Trump Stan angerily replied by saying "well isn't BERNIE SANDERS going to pay for your college" and they awkwardly separated
Later in the day the Trump Stan slammed into the Bernie Stan in the hallway out of nowhere pushing him into a wall and yelled "Would BERNIE SANDERS clear the hallway for you"
I screamed it was such a mess. Trump stans are so extra

A lot of people can get elected off of a president's coattails. Sanders didn't really start the "revolution" anti-wall street sentiment was strong before his candidacy. He's tapping into anger that is already there. Yea, he's fanning the flames more, but it was there before him. Do you remember the occupy Wall Street movement?
