(20,453 posts)... I get the REAL news on how Bernie Sanders comes across to every voter exposed to what he stands for.
The young people say it best.... They aren't worried about the way the root word, "social" has been changed by the political establishment. They understand English.
Not only is the established "press" suppressing what it means to be an American and be entitled to clean air and water, but they are turning a deaf ear to how all education has been privatized. Not only is "Public" education less "public", but upper division education at college and universities are way out of the reach of those who have less and less public support in K-12 school districts.
How silly is it to think that young adults havent' seen this coming?
Thanks to RT for reporting this way. They are one of the few.

(6,419 posts)why do you post vids from RT (Putin TV)? Don't you know what that represents? Don't you care gay rights and human rights? If you do, pls delete this vid and find an alternative--there are dozens of alternatives that don't represent an oppressive gov't.

(9,688 posts)All posts the same - 2 minute of hate posts anti Russia from the get-go.
Except a very few posts, which spread the hate out a bit.
Otherwise empty of content.
At first I was appalled, now I pay it no mind - it's right out of the '50s, irrelevant.

(6,419 posts)Here's the reverse-McCarthyism you try to BS us with. Your BS goes like this: Criticizing the fascist regime of Putin = criticizing all of Russia = hate.
Here's how I see it. You pulling this BS above = running interference for the fascist Russian gov = hatred of gays, of freedom of the press, of people's right to live in freedom. The hatred is yours. Tell me I'm wrong, but I expect crickets.

Your posts on DU are off the rails.
Get some help.

It does go generational with those blips inbetween.

(88,117 posts)They may not realize their category is under-represented.
But the all at once huge swing questioned even by a Hillary spokeswoman ....could easily discourage new voters coming to the party. IMO it is meant to do so.

(84,711 posts)but, the Young will go where they will go to support their interests. I have hope that Bernie gave them Hope and they will continue to hope for change!
As WE DID...
ish of the hammer
(444 posts)to change the status quo. Climate change is limiting both our options and the time needed to affect positive change.
Greenland is melting, with a real possibility of shutting down the ocean's currents. The ice caps are melting, the shorelines are disappearing: IT IS HAPPENING NOW.
70 million people died during world war 2 - that total was without the use of WMD's. When Pakistan and India start arguing about
water rights, I don't think the U.S. will avoid the fallout. (pun intended)
Do I need to add that Clinton's corporatism not allow the change needed?
There is an awful urgency about THIS election, if you don't see that, you are not paying attention.

(841 posts)Yes, "just" his stump speech, which I've already heard probably a dozen times, but this one was so dramatic and emotional - his best one so far. The students - in over 300 universities - just loved him!

(6,419 posts)just like a postive video about Sanders from the KKK or Stormfront would. Shame on you for posting RT

(4,879 posts)I watched it on Bernietv until the feed died and then picked it up on MSNBC a little later.
It was grand and inspiring. Fuck the asshole that pushes hate on anything RT reports.
Go Bernie.

(1,268 posts)Not getting much sleep lately. Getting up early in the morning (6AM) to get to high school to register students turning 18. Only got 2 today. But that is two more people who say they want to vote for Bernie--without me mentioning a specific candidate--which I'm not allowed to do. But hey! I'm inspired to do this. Just bring me a 3 shot mocha and I'm fine. And let me just say I don't give a rats rear-end what names people call Bernie. I just shake my head and wonder when are they going to realize what their future means going against the grain. There is a shortsightedness that exists in this place and time. Truly sad.
