[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bernie Sanders won, hands down. Clintons attacks were lame (eg, trying to paint sanders as pro NRA) or, essentially, accusing him of being too idealistic. She likes universal health care, "but it's too idealistic, so lets improve a little on what we've got." She likes controlling Wall Street, "but breaking up the banks is too big a step." She likes campaign finance reform, "but nit yet, nit until I win this election." The war on drugs has made a travesty of prisons and breaking up families, "but decriminalizing marijuana is too bold."

Here's the problem with hearkening back to the good old policies of B Clinton and B Obama: Ultimately, they made things WORSE. Banks are even bigger than they were when they were too big to fail. Wall street controls our politicians. Corporations exploit every tax dodging strategy in their toolbox. Insurance companies are drooling cash and blood.

The reality is, the Republicans can't mount a decent argument, much less a campaign. Now is the time for Dems to think and act big. If they don't, we know why: They've sold out. I'm looking at you, Hillary Clinton.[/quote]

This is what ultimately persuaded me to go with Bernie. He's right and he's got the guts to fight for it. Obviously there are many who don't think he can get the nomination but that remains to be seen. If Hillary gets it, I will vote for her. She is not my first choice. [/quote]
