bernie is always criticizing other people who have loads of money lol msongs Apr 2020 #21

Besides Mayor Pete and possibly Tulsi, everyone running had more than him Polybius Apr 2020 #22

Sure, that's awful but what is Bernie supposed to do? Polybius Apr 2020 #26

He won't be president because he lost the primary. And his policies would only help if he won the Demsrule86 Apr 2020 #34

Obviously Polybius Apr 2020 #39

He has never attracted AA voters...he had four years to remedy this...and yet apparently a plan was Demsrule86 Apr 2020 #47

Geezus. No Bernie should not sell his house. LakeArenal Apr 2020 #37

In the real world the primary is over Gothmog Apr 2020 #14

The race is over. Sanders has literally a 0% chance of winning the nomination. TwilightZone Apr 2020 #17
