You know one thing that none of the candidates seemed to do this election? Try to use the internet as a primary channel for marketing. Maybe the Russians wouldn't let them.
Or they could be Trump, greatest twitter troll ever.Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return.

It is odd that praising Castro eviscerated Sanders' campaign whereas Trump largely got a free pass for saying he "fell in love" with Kim Jong Un. It's really a crapshoot what will stick and what won't."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

There was nothing clearly "joking" about the context when he described Kim Jong Un as a "great" leader who "loves his people".

Either it is wrong to praise a dictator, or it is more complicated. Note that the context I have provided was not specifically to his face. Sanders' comments were wrong on their face, but they were even qualified in a manner that Trump's comments were not."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion.

Originally posted by seer View PostNo, take my word for it, Bernie is done. Biden will get the required delegates by the convention. More Democrat voters will swing towards Biden now to prevent a brokered convention. And the under 30 crowd did not turn out for Bernie - only one in eight. The delicious news of the night: Warren couldn't even win her state! Couldn't happen to a nicer person!
Anywho... she did her job in siphoning off enough votes from Sanders to keep him from winning states like Massachusetts and Maine and thereby earn her reward from the DNC. Of course she'll have to get in line behind Buttigieg, Klobuchar and "Beto."
