    This is the immediate danger she poses to US power centers. Mainstreaming anti imperial sentiment the way Bernie did with Medicare-For-All. She just says it straightforward. Not caring who clutches their pearls over it.

    I like Tulsi but it seems the democrats are looking for a "clean and articulate African American" to run.

    That Tulsi is one hot looking lady. Are your sure she is a democrat? An exception to the rule for sure. She will look like a flower among weeds during any debates. Imagine that visual with Pocahantas and sour puss Harris on each side of Tulsi, no sir, they will never let that happen.

    She's great. Too bad most democrats are too bloodthirsty to support her and will smear her if she gets any traction. Good VP for Sanders.

    I just received a very interesting email from Tulsi's campaign. It suggests Tulsi is about to attack Bernie from Left. It reads:
    Probably been doing her homework on Bernie's long history of tacitly supporting US imperialism. He only opposes the strategy. Not the goal.

    Such a great reference had to include the clip (20 sec. in). U forgot the mainstream, bright, good looking parts, lol.



    As w/ Trump, Biden is one of the few politicians that can walk away unscathed from what conventionally would be considered a political suicide... Re. Gabbard she is "shiny & new" & that largely encompasses the breadth & depth of their constituency... :)

    I agree with tucker carlson most of the time as do most conservatives

    Notice that he says he disgrees with gabbert on most issues

    Which tells me she is not the answer for what ails this county

    Tulsi needs to get out there and be aggressive with her fellow Democrats. She might want to think about attacking the Senators and about how much they don't get done.

    That is her in.....going after those Demos Senators. Otherwise they will dump on her and it will be over before you know it.

    This is kind of the point of voting "anti Establishment" - regardless of whether they are Red or Blue. What I like about Tulsi is that it is through her that we see who the real demons are - and there are too many to count on both sides.

    She is aggressive with her fellow Dems - that is what separates her from the pack. No idea what you are talking about with respect to "how much they get done" or why she would take this tact - this is pointless.

    What she does do is attack the policy positions of Dems - such as on arming and supporting Terrorist groups like Al Qaeda and ISIS and involving ourselves in illegal wars and huge war spending on military actions that do not benefit US security or US citizens.

    If she was so aggressive. She would show up in a poll at least in the top 5. But then that aint happening. But hey, at least you can say you tried to talk a good game.

    She must have done something right - she has a whole lot of Dems going out of their way to demonize her.

    Not sure how you figure antagonizing fellow Dem's should necessarily result in higher poll numbers ? Sounds like non sequitur fallacy to me (It does not follow).

    They are attacking her and she isn't even in the real running. Going for a quick knockout. Going after them.....gets her camera time. More camera time, more people noticing her. Gins up support. Both Social and Money support. Its a win win for her.

    Sure but I do not think attacking other Dems on what they get done would be more effective in relation to getting camera time that attacking them on policy - like she is doing.

    The only real chance I gave her was if Bernie did not run and backed her. How that Bernie is running I doubt she has any chance. The other problem is that most the Electorate are too brainwashed (or just ignorant of what is going on in this nation) to recognize a good thing when they see it.

    If they leave her off the list you can't tell the pollsters you want her. Why do they include people who aren't running? Obviously they're trying every trick to keep Bernie out of first place. I suspect half the 10 announced candidates aren't in most polls. Don't look at polls. They're rigged more than the convention.

    I didn't say attacking them on what they get done. I said on what they didn't get done. Oh and as to policy most of the Demos voted in step with each other. That isn't to say she can't find some differences.

    She can make the play on a good majority of the Clowns due to being Senators and flip flopping before the cameras.

    That still leaves her to deal with those who have been Governors and some other no names. There is no mistaken that she will get more camera time. The More free press the better her chances.

    The more camera time the better in my books. As is stated in the Tucker interview - no one (Politicians) on either side is willing to debate Tulsi on the substance of her argument (with respect to interventionalism). All these clowns do is name call and engage in fallacious ad hom and strawman from the peanut gallery.

    Well maybe Hirono will get tired of the pile on and say something. But for now.....she/Gabbard knows the attacks are coming from Demos and their pundits.

    The attacks will come from the Neocon Right as well - should Tulsi get any traction. Unfortunately we will not get to see this movie I don't think.

    I know a bit about Hawaii Politics and she has been a shooting star there. She is a Major in the Army national Guard too. She got promoted quickly and that is difficult unless in combat.
    She outdistances here closest competition in Hawaii by a factor of around 5. She clearly is very ambitious and intelligent and is currently in the mob running for the DP president slot.

    She is somewhat a younger version of Bernie Sanders.

    Which is why I think she has a good chance of winning if she would get the nomination.
