Current Events > man, remember when we had the chance to nominate bernie

(+) Yeah! (+)

you know, that politician who isn't like the other politicians

that person who's been on the right side of things since before it was in vogue to do so

that visionary who actually wanted to bring about positive change

that dude who actually cares about the people

that guy, remember?

there never was a chance. Can't fight the DNC propaganda machine

---

Bernie is unfortunately ahead of his time. Maybe in a couple of decades will his ideals be ready for center stage.

We never had the chance when the DNC did everything they could to derail his campaign.

He was never going to win

---

I remember that, he failed to get people to vote for him twice so the DNC nominated the candidate who did get people to vote for him.

except in this case it's obama saying the bottom track is the best, bernie saying look the top track is the best, but let's compromise for the middle and at least help most people. then Pelosi whispers to comcast "tell them only biden can beat trump, they'll believe it"

Bernie is the only one who ran in this election that actually cares about you.

And a lot of you rejected him.

You reap what you sow. You sowed a Trump victory by nominating the worst possible choice.

Stop this disingenuous bullshit. All the other candidates dropping out and endorsing Biden except the one that directly eats into Bernie's base is pure fuckery.

Unless of course, you're willing to defend Trump's impending victory as "legitimate" too. (Well, that's the sad part. Trump beating Biden really won't have anything to do with his cheating. It was always going to happen.)

Bernie would handily defeat Trump in a general election.

---

Yeah and he didnt convince the majority of people to vote for him

I like Bernie but I hate how the fanbase is fixated on him so hard

This is why Bernie or bust is right

Democrats need to change
if not then they'll keep winning

You need to wait until the Democrats hold the Executive and Congress for 4 years and still no implementation of a public option.

As a Bernie bro, Bernie is a meme at this point. He wouldnt have won

Guess we will never know

We've entered an age of "celebrity" politicians that is pretty cancerous, tbh.

---

have you seen all the "socialist!!!" propaganda the republicans vomit at center-right democrats? it'll be orders of magnitude worse against Bernie or AOC, non-stop, for months on end. there is no way they can win a national race right now. none. win the fights you can win today, to make the ones you can't possible tomorrow.

that's what the commercials say, but the branding doesn't stick. but with bernie, you'd have seen hundreds of commercials with the USSR national anthem playing with blurbs of him calling for food lines...

biden is going to win with trump acting like biden is bernie. Anyone is fall suspect to fear mongering socialism is already not voting for Biden. Who exactly do you think is going to not vote for bernie that is voting for biden? Bernie on his own motivated voters by having an actual engerized base. Combined with covid further motivating people to get trump out, there is no path for a trump victory. With trump fucking up covid the DNC could have won with anyone. Without Covid, Biden would be in the same position as Hillary. Poll well, look like he should win, but risk losing due to voter apathy of people not really wanting yet another establishment canidate who wants coporations over people.

"Oh no Bernie actually wants to make sure if my family gets covid that we don't end up in crushing medical debt, how could i support that!" is apparently a thought you think is going through the mind of people who are voting for biden. To date, you don't run across anyone who goes, man i sure am glad to vote for biden he really represents my belief. It's always...uggg...guess i have to vote biden since i really don't want trump, but i wish i could vote for someone else.

Is anyone excited for expanded ACA when ACA has been a failure that's only raised health cost? Is anyone excited for someone who responds to black lives matter protest with, the police isn't bad. If we give them more money surely they can train themselves to stop murdering innocent civilians right? What is Biden's trademark policy you can look at and say, I can't wait for Biden do that in the next year or two? it's just, "well he won't do want trump would do, and that's something"
