    Bernie Sanders is going to kill this country, given a chance

    Not sure how anyone could vote for this guy. I think our country is severely lacking in understanding socialism and it's failure to raise the standard of living where/when tried.

      Empty promises to get elected.Most of what he proposes and how to pay for it will never pass through Congress Dem or Rep.Our legislators are too far into the hip pocket of corperate America.Oh to be sure,they'll bluster like they're "trying to do something" but in the end nothing will change.

        I believe the same thing was said about Obama, but here we are.

          I actually like Bernie. When a candidate is honest, say unlike Hillary, I think it is actually good to understand their positions and arguments. It seems to me that there are a lot of positions that people on the right and left get locked into that are not as reasoned as they think. But they are liberal or conservative and that is enough.

          Does Medicare for everyone really mean the government controls your healthcare? No more than it is controlled by greedy insurance companies today. On free public college, I get the rationale and am not sure it is a bad thing. As for minimum wage, if it had kept with inflation, it would be $11 at the low end. There are issues as well where I think we dig into conservative positions that may not be reasonable.

          As for Wall Street and big business, I actually think Bernie nails it. Which is exactly why the same thing that is going on over here in the GOP with the "establishment" is going on over there with their "establishment". The Democratic party is bought and paid for and will do anything to make sure Bernie doesn't get elected. They want someone they can control.
          Put the pipe down.

          College indoctrination worked on you didn't it.

              Free higher education will only mean that a college education is worth less than it is now
              Free health care most certainly does mean that the gov. will control what procedures you qualify for,like you better quit smoking if you want your broken leg fixed.http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...s-smoking.html
              Nothing Bernie or Hillary want for this country is going to be good for this country.

              And CORPORATIONS ARE GOOD! SOCIALIST ARE BAD!

                Free college for everyone will solve nothing. Now is the price of tuition an issue or the ability to receive financial aid? Yes, but Bernie won't solve it. The problem is there is a generation of kids coming out of school who have learned nothing. They do not want to work for anything, criticism is looked at as a direct insult and they believe they should come out of college with an executive position making 100k a year. This is not even a political issue, its a parenting and societal issue. You want to know why immigration is an issue, it's not because they come over and take jobs. They accept work that my generation refuses to do because they believe they are above it. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Giving things to people for free who do not deserve them is just enabling the fundamental issue with this country. If you want something, work for it. Great things are born from struggle not from floating through and taking hand-outs.

                  I'm for free college after mandatory military service. In a 1 for 1 return. You want a 4 year degree, you owe us 4 years of service.

                    I tend to agree with Bernie on certain things, certainly not fiscal issues however, mainly foreign policy issues.

                      yeah, but don't that mean you actually have to DO SOMETHING for it?

                      the libs will never go for it.

                        You really want all of these kids to serve? Have you been on a college campus lately?

                          You're going backwards. I'm going forward


                          If someone wants to go to college on our dime, they serve. Mommy and daddy can still pay for their brats.

                          It would weed out a lot of folks who ride the system

                            One thing I agree with Bernie on is releasing the transcripts of Hilary's $500,000 speeches. It must have been a heck of a pep talk.
