    She's actually pretty damn intelligent. Her mechanism to address her concerns wasn't well thought out though..

    I actually agree with her. None of the politicians or systems are geared to confront the serious racial and social issues we are currently facing. Not 1

    You missed the Bernie rally at the Rose Garden (fuck Moda). He will address it. He has my vote because of that.

    Its not the opinion of black people as so much as much as an issue with him not being able to even control his own rally. Basically got cuckold'ed.

    Just seems like a pussy leader. Maybe he's good at complaining and shit, but big fucking deal. When it comes time to negotiate with people he'd get owned.

    Holy crap! A politician saying things you want to hear because it might get him votes?

    It's like man bites dog.

    I always find it fascinating to see what makes people vote for who.

    I find it fascinating that so many people vote at all. To me it is like choosing between Wife Swap and Dancing With The Stars for your television viewing.

    I choose neither.

    I vote for Bernie because he's the only one committed to breaking up the banks and reinstating Glass-Stegall. He is not paid by them.

    It's what the sacrifice of men and women who died for your freedom to vote gave you. IMO it's an honor to vote

    This is why I vote and will never sit out an election. Neither I nor my child has to fight this struggle. It was fought for us. My ballot comes to my home and I can vote in privacy there. If I do not vote, I spit on their struggle.

    Ok.... If it werent for the Gramm-Leach-Bliley act (part of which repealed Glass-Stegall) we wouldn't be having this problem with banks gambling with our money.

    I think there are pros and cons both ways.

    Well, the con without Glass-Stegall is Commercial banks gambling with our money like Investment banks. What are the cons of preventing them from doing that?
