    Why would you ever think Bernie was straightforward and sincere? He's made a career out of proposing Communism and sacrifice for the Greater Good and the Benefit of the People, and he has become a millionaire doing it.

    SMH...

    The game is rigged against her-thats what the DNC does to people who point out its corruption.

    What difference does it make if he's just replaced by some other corporate lackey?

    A presidential candidate is trying to get people's attention? Simply unheard of...

    Sort of like what Trump does to GOP candidates who question his Mentally-Unstable IMBECILITY?

    She has to follow the same rules as all the folks that have made it onto those stages. Not only that they had clear goals spelled early so they could work to achieve them. If she cannot achieve those modest goals how in the world is she going to run the most powerful country in the free world?

    I don't have a problem with anybody making money.

    And again I disagree with him I'm so many things but at least he was direct about it.

    Im amazed at how many don't know this.

    Im also amazed at how quickly dems "fall in line" behind who the DNC says-its lockstep.

    Someone once told me that leftists feel powerless and so they stick together in a "herd" mentality.

    I think its a shrewd move-calls attention to her after she's been out of the spot light for a few months.

    Of course.

    Needy Attention-Whoring from a Marginalized Candidate (with no real chance at the Nom)?

    The DNC can hold a grudge for a long time.

    She is a great communicator.

    Trump could appoint her as UN representative or something and I think it would go over well.

    You heard WRONG.

    That Perfectly Describes TRUMP Supporters.

    Glad to set you straight. You're Welcome. :salute:

    Look at the national debt and the steps the fed has taken and is about to take. We should be saving during a “rocket ship of an economy” but instead we are propping up a failed presidency. Not to mention the standing our county once had has fallen precipitously in the past several years, educational attainment is down, healthcare cost are up, healthcare quality is down.

    No, things are not “working just fine”.

    The country is finally starting to heal after 8 years of our worst president-Obama.

    This is why dems don't discuss the economy in their debates.

    Yep... and so many Leftists are so morally corrupt that they are alright with it. It's crazy land to me.

    But the Economy is such a insignificant topic. Why would Democrats bother with such ridiculousness when they can discuss trans-rights which was part of their debate! That's way more important.

    You have a real point on The Debt. But, every president since Reagan has failed the nation on that topic. To me, it's a huge deal and it pisses me off. Trump has sucked on it and it should be pointed out.

    (1) What's wrong with women surfing?

    (2) That is rarely what she does with her time away from her Congressional job. She couldn't fight to be in the last debate, because she was serving.

    They no longer seem to care about wedding cakes and transgender bathrooms. They've lost their soul.

    I like Tulsi.

    However, it's funny, reading the article you linked:

    "The Hawaii Democrat, who has hit the qualification thresholds for Tuesday’s debate in Ohio, said she’d decide in the coming days whether to participate."

    "Only eight candidates have qualified under those thresholds, and Gabbard is not among them."

    So, which one is it? Did she qualify or not? If she didn't qualify, it's easy to say "I boycott".

    However, let's not fool ourselves. If Gabbard was the nominee, you'd start three "Tulsi lies" threads against her every day and call her names. Too predictable... You really just like to sow discord among the Democrats, because you think it helps Trump win.

    Only in the states where the GOP has a caucus not a primary.

    SOP when the political party candidate is already in the White House.

    The Democrats did the same thing back in 2012 and 1996.
