Bern and it is frightening at this point, but like the early humans, they will realize fire is good and in the end it will help us all advance as a species.

younger voters liked ron paul due to his ant-war views.

Bernie who is jewish and who fought for civil rights is called the racists.

About half of Sanders supporters are the best the party has to offer. For years they were referred to as Kucinich supporters. The other half are past supporters of Paul who see an opportunity to cripple the economy, the only way for their positions to get recognized. Paul isn't trying to desperately debate Sanders for no reason. Paul isn't sending volunteers to Sanders events, where they are receiving a warm welcome, for no reason. These things are real. Ignore them all you want. The whole Thatcher is more of a feminist role model than Clinton really sealed the deal for me. I was surprised how much right wing support that received here. Things people have been telling me here for months about Sanders are becoming more obvious by the day. I originally bout the bullshit Sanders was selling. Not anymore.

your views on the Sanders/Paul conspiracy you speak of. I heard Alex Jones will be next one to introduce Bernie to the masses who come to hear him speak..............

The other two are facts. You don't know what a conspiracy theory even is.

" I heard Alex Jones will be next one to introduce Bernie to the masses who come to hear him speak"

No need, West is already in attendance.

reply you feel Rand/Ron Paul supporters have planned and/or conspired to infiltrate Bernie rallies and Bernie supporters are welcoming them with open arms.... it's your theory not mine. BTW IMO adding Thatcher to this discussion is only a way to divert attention from your "theory" and is an attempt to slander a person because they don't support your candidate. Thanks for the replies.
