In any case I wish someone would tie it. Hey, Bernie, it's not polite to point! A pointed retort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Bulman Posted February 27, 2020 Author Share Posted February 27, 2020 Where can one express their opinion that it might be heard? I looked tonight using "democratic presidential candidate internet conversations I can participate in", among other combinations. This is what I got. The DNC is useless. https://www.bing.com/search?q=democratic presidental candidate internet conversations I can participate in &qs=n&form=QBRE&sp=-1&pq=democratic presidental candidate internet conversations i can particip &sc=0-71&sk=&cvid=46B0F0E82E1D4DE7AB17FD87D26834B5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost all of their "Trending" threads for the past month have been anti-Bernie-- including a thread today about how Russian trolls have infiltrated the forum to promote Bernie. ( If true, I sure haven't seen their pro-Bernie threads in recent weeks on DU.) 🙄 I've been a nominal DU member for the past decade, but they abruptly suspended my account last week after I disagreed with an anti-Bernie post by a Biden supporter.

W. Niederhut Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 (edited) With apologies to the JFKA research scholars here, I can't help mentioning Jeremy Scahill's outstanding Intercepter podcast yesterday (including an interview with Jesse Jackson) about the smearing of Bernie Sanders by the "Establishment." Excellent summary of the state of play, by the author of Dirty Wars. Bernie Sanders’ Fight Against Trump, the GOP, the Democratic Establishment, and Corporate Media https://theintercept.com/2020/02/26/bernies-fight-against-trump-the-gop-the-democratic-establishment-and-corporate-media/ February 26, 2020 Edited February 27, 2020 by W.

Andrew Prutsok Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I'm a Bernie guy, but it's interesting that both Bernie and Trump supporters are threatening violence if their candidate is removed/defeated/denied nomination. Nice country we're living in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More like a "shining city on a hill" that endlessly sends bombers and drones to blow other civilizations back to the Stone Age. First, it was about fighting the Red Menace, then it was about fighting the Green Menace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFK tried to make peace with the red one and got killed in part for it. I don't think peace is possible in this case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
