He stands no real chance. Bernie is basically running away with the national polling. Yay Communism...That's what

Originally posted by JimL View PostIt's called democratic socialism, Bill. As Sanders pointed out last night, we already have socialism, it's just that much of it is targeted to the wealthy in the form of subsidies and a favorable tax system."The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe. I did try to found a heresy of my own; and when I had put the last touches to it, I discovered that it was orthodoxy."

Originally posted by JimL View PostThe fact that he's rising in the polls is due to the fact that he isn't well known, hasn't actively campaigned, and his entire campaign has been nothing but a half a billion dollars worth of self promoting tv ads. Bloombergs biggest mistake was in becoming eligible for the debate."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

Originally posted by KingsGambit View PostThis has to be accurate. There's no way that Bloomberg's campaign will actually withstand scrutiny. He seems calculated to alienate nearly everybody in one way or another - anti-gun, pro-nanny state, pro-Iraq war, elitist, pro-racial profiling... who is actually going to be his base?Last edited by JimL; 02-20-2020, 08:45 AM.

Well, I guess he won't Tweet nearly as much.

I don't know if anything exemplifies our modern age of sound bite politics more than Trump tweeting about how Bloomberg was racist for his stop and frisk policies; despite the fact that he himself campaigned in 2016 to expand stop and frisk beyond New York City. His tweet still remains effective because the factual basis is beside the point."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right!
