They don't see their own hypocrisy. As far as they are concerned, we have a Kenyan President who should be living in Chicago where he needs to implement gun control over black people only. The rest of us should be free to own as many guns as we can afford. In fact, we should issue a gun to every newborn in America so they grow up to be real patriots.

they don't like the guy, why would that make them morons? would your argument here lose relevance if you took the insulting terminology out? Why indirectly insult the mentally disabled just to throw your insult at the republicans?

Good point.
Are the others going to have endure your endless dissing of a sitting Democratic president after I leave in 2018?

If he gets elected the democrats will help with the dissing once he screws everything up.

Bernie? He turned around Burlington (VT) as mayor and then the state as both a congressman and senator.
Free college, universal healthcare and a total reform of the tax system are just three of the issues that I would love to see come to fruition.

Yea everyone loves free until their tax rate goes through the roof. Voters need to do their homework on Greece before they follow the pied piper

Or the tax rates in Denmark they like to point out as an example of a socialist paradise. Greece is only worse because there are few people working to pay those taxes.

The key is to find a balance, as Hillary Clinton said in Tuesday’s debate. “Our job is to rein in the excesses of capitalism so it doesn’t run amok,” she said. In that sentiment, you could hear the historical echo of two great progressive presidents, Teddy Roosevelt and his cousin Franklin, both of whom sought to save capitalism from itself.
She also said, “We are not Denmark.” Nope. Not by any stretch. Denmark has a slightly higher tax load on its citizens than the United States. But it also has budget surpluses, universal health care, shorter working hours, and was recently rated by Forbes magazine as the best country in the world for business.

As I said, a socialist paradise. Even though the facts say otherwise.

that is an outcome. Bernie's answer is to tax the rich to pay for it. The rich can be sneaky elusive and find ways to avoid paying a 90 percent tax rate. In many cases as in Greece they basically boycotted capitalism and stopped investing to avoid paying the 90 percent tax rate.
the other problem with free college tuition is the fact I knew too many kids that seemed to linger in college forever before they figured out what they wanted to do. There would have to be strict guidelines to ensure this does not turn into a excess drain of tax dollars. the government has never demonstrated the ability to tightly manage something like this.
third its only a matter of time before the liberals will have us financing college for the illegal immigrants. open up the Bernie (Pandora) box and evil will surely come out..
