Only a little over a month to go to Iowa for the Dems. I think Bloomberg is going to regret skipping the early primaries.

I think unionistas will turn out for Bernie, those that aren’t voting for Trump. I’ve never understood the claim that Biden had the unionista crowd. Every hard core unionista leftist I ever met was a Bernie bot!

Bernie’s real problem is the 700+ superdelegates.

The democrats don’t really have much use for democracy, do they?

Literally means “red-head” in Mandarin. Derogatory name for gweilos in Sing.Good catch.

Actually, it means "red hair" on the body in Hokkien.

Curious as to why you would choose a semi-pejorative as a screen name. It's like calling yourself "gringo."

In Mandarin, they use "waiguoren" for "foreigner." That's much nicer than "gwailo," which is pretty bad in Cantonese.

Good to see someone with Southeast Asian connections on FR.

Simple disinformation for when they cheat Bernie out of the nomination again it will have the appearance of legitimacy.

It’s Joe Malarkey. That’s who the establishment has selected.

The Scandinavian countries are capitalist in structure with very high rates of taxation. They are nanny states but not socialist by definition. The Scandinavian states are large, overbearing, over-taxing, and overbearing but do not own the means of production.

Sanders will say he’s for choice but once he is in power, he will be his old subversive self, looking for ways to consolidate the left into permanent power by undermining the Constitution.

First, he will work overtime to get rid of the Electoral College and to destabilize the Senate as it is currently structured by rules as a bulwark against radical change and easy leftist tyranny.

He also thinks Trumps’s wall is not such a bad idea after all. Why? He will take a page out of Nikita Khrushchev’s book. Khrushchev ordered the Berlin Wall, and the barrier separating East from West Germany, built to keep East Germans from migrating to freedom. The wall at the Mexican border will be useful to Sanders to keep Americans from fleeing his coming socialist tyranny.

Study Sanders. He is an old fashioned Trotskyite. He despises the Chi-Comms because they adopted the capitalist economic model. They are right wingers to him. His deception is that low information voters think he is anti-communist because he opposes the Red Chinese. They couldn’t be more wrong.

There is going to be only one way to defeat this guy after he wins the Dem nomination, and I believe he might very well win it. President Trump must get VERY personal about this guy’s background and his history. He is a Communist of the old variety. Very few people know anything at all about him. He is the original red diaper baby. President Trump must get very negative and very personal to beat him.

Above all, do not underestimate Bernie Sanders.

The hardcore leftists will be out there registering dogs, illegal aliens, dead folks, and anyone else they can register to vote to win this race. But I believe the president can out-register them.

Our men and women in uniform must never have to salute this absolute despot posing as a democratic (small d) American political figure. Sanders is in love with old fashioned socialism of the authoritarian kind, not capitalism of any kind, including the Scandinavian kind. He must never be allowed anywhere near the presidency.

The Electoral College can only be gotten rid of by a Constitutional Amendment, not by legislation or Executive Order. The POTUS has no say-so in the matter..............

I didn’t say how exactly he would go about it, but believe me, they are going to try to do it no matter what it takes.

Don’t think they can’t get it done. They can.

> IMHO the nominee is still a “player to be named later”, by the party bosses, the super delegates. <

I agree. According to the new DNC rules, the superdelegates can vote starting with the second ballot. And there probably will be a second ballot.

So my early money is on Hillary or Biden or Michelle (in that order).

Sorry, but unless someone takes everyone else out, Bernie will not be the nominee.. he has a solid low to mid teen support, and that’s where he’s been and hasn’t moved an inch since this all began... His supporters will vote for him until they have no choice, but he hasn’t expanded his base 1 iota...

This is wishful thinking by those who support him.

It’s really easy. All he has to do is get 3/4 of the State legislatures (38 of 50) to pass it...............

“It may have been inevitable that eventually you would have two candidates representing each side of the ideological divide in the party. A lot of smart people I’ve talked to lately think there’s a very good chance those two end up being Biden and Sanders,” said David Brock, a longtime Hillary Clinton ally who founded a pro-Clinton super PAC in the 2016 campaign. “They’ve both proven to be very resilient.” ... “I believe people should take him very seriously. He has a very good shot of winning Iowa, a very good shot of winning New Hampshire, and other than Joe Biden, the best shot of winning Nevada,” said Dan Pfeiffer, who served as a adviser to former President Barack Obama.
Thanks Red Badger, I needed a good laugh. Brock? Pfeiffer who? Bernie won't even live long enough to watch Biden accept the nomination.
