While we're watching Hillary I thought we could use some snacks. Help yourself to some popcorn.
Here's a little something to wash it down. With all these choices surely there's a brand you'll like.
Now put down the and

or do 100% of what he wants. I see him as oblivious to some of the issues regarding women and black people, which leads him to miss issues that are important to those groups.
I'm kind of tone deaf to racial stuff myself, I grew up in a really white area and I just haven't been around black people that much. I like going to the African American group and one thing I've come to believe lately is that if it's ambiguous whether something is or isn't racist,
it's better for me to them make those calls and listen and try to respect that.
The reason I don't want to take that tone myself is that I think it can leave people feeling like outrage over racism isn't about racism but about votes.
That's why I'm not comfortable talking about it that way myself. I feel like it would make me be acting like one of these bros and I don't want to act like them.
(No. Not all Sanders supporters are bros. But the bros sure suck...)

(5,624 posts)been saying about her. He's helping rethugs with talking points this fall. He's not interested in bringing the democratic party together as he seems to be with building a new party or changing it into what he envisions. Where are the funds to help other dems get elected? He says he's bringing in new folks. I believe many are only interested in stopping Hillary and not really there down the road for him. Like some dems supporting Kasich to stop trump.........etc

(24,149 posts)He's diagnosing over and over and over -- the same five points -- and criticizing everything she ever said, did or voted for to malign her for being AGAINST those causes.
You'd have to be a complete IDIOT not to see through that!!
She's ready to work the system to make progress, and she's shown CLEARLY, over decades, that her heart's with the cause of the people.
He's preaching slogans that won't get him ANYWHERE if he were to win the nomination.

because the GOP would make mincemeat out of his five points, his weak record, etc.
I hope they will not get the chance.

(92,397 posts)tactics of some of his supporters, which included spamming websites of organizations and people who endorsed Hillary
and I concur, he has turned into a real asshole. That is why primaries are not just on the same day, but drawn out. We get to see the real people we are dealing with.
This debate, or any subsequent ones will not change anyone's view at this stage

(34,477 posts)I don't think he's turned into an asshole. I think he has revealed himself to be an asshole to a larger group of people. It is no surprise that he is nearly as unpopular among his colleagues as is Cruz.
I also liked him at one time.

(24,149 posts)I can't believe there was a time when I didn't get her.
She is amazing, not only on facts and at heart, but she's learned the art of a debate, too.
No way anybody could think he won anything over her, unless they REALLY want to spin a story.
I am so proud of her I could -- oh I dunno -- give more money to her campaign!

(145,558 posts)On the MSNBC post debate show, Fineman stated that Sanders was so anti-Israel because he knows that he is going to lose New York. This make sense. Sanders just fired an aide who was making some anti-Israel comments on facebook http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/2016/04/14/sanders_campaign_suspends_jewish_outreach_coordinator_for_facebook_rant.html Sanders is going to lose the Jewish vote by a Yuuge margin and can point to his position on this debate as the reason shy

(90,796 posts)....the thread is cheering me up and giving me hope for the outcome.
Sadly, my husband did watch it all the way thru, and he is now really pissed at Hillary. Says she interrupted, ran overtime, and generally got down and dirty. Says for the sake of our marriage we are not going to discuss HRC vs BS any more, lol.
It's okay. We are Democrats and will unite for the General Election.
