We're at 12 percent! 15 to get into the debates with Hillary and Trump. I have a sense the rules will get changed between now and October.
22 percent with Independents, only 10 points from Trump and actually 2 points ahead of HRC.

On the other hand, trying to control them has already almost sparked conflicts with Iran and North Korea, and has with India and Pakistan.
we've never really been close to war with iran or north korea. and india/pakistan is a good example of nukes keeping peace.

Everything that Sanders wants to implicate will come from taxing large corporations and banks on the amount they're supposed be paying.

USA is a Liberal Democratic political system.

iamdanman
The government is right wing, look at the polling, we're a liberal country.
Looking at polling, with hillary being the strongest democrat, and trump being the only republican, yes, the US public is right wing.
cyno01
Regan would be too liberal to get the Democratic nomination nowadays.
Nccoffee
Sadly this is true
TheCaprican72
I'm curious why sadly?
The fact that we miss out on universal healthcare and education for one, those have a pretty positive impact on society.
catpr0m
I would say America is progressive overall, but we are still primarily Conservative. I hate to say it, but I think Trump will win 2016. :(
SpongebobReferences
Although trump is an asshole, I think he wouldn't screw up as badly as Hillary would
I don't really know enough, but I'm worried Trump will screw up international relations. Hil sucks but at least she kisses ass.
Lol, what international relations? Our allies don't trust us and we have more enemies than ever. I get your point though
To clarify, I don't want Hillary either. Fuck this election so hard.
cantseeyou
Bernie was not right for America. Only the people under age 25 want a socialist president. The rest of us don't want to pay their loans.
FDR is considered one of the greatest presidents, he got us out of the great depression and term limits were made because of him.
Squishyflap
As someone with 90k in student loans, those are my responsibility and not yours. I chose to get them, now I have to be responsible.
bamcockseverywhere
What if society gets more than $90k in utility above and beyond the utility that was paid for by your salary? Like a rural clinic doctor
Well everyone would benefit from the nationalized healthcare, and the student loans are an investment by the country, not a total loss.
We have the ACA but it is unsustainable because people under 25 don't sign up and help pay for it. Or they stay on their parents insurance
ACA is run by insurance companies, and is thus not at all Nationalized. It just makes more people have to pay for insurance.
Mimsey
But way to prove that Americans are uneducated idiots that deserve to face annihilation under a Trump presidency.
MrPink1
Eh, trump would just be a lame duck president who couldn't get anything done for four years. People overestimate the presidents power.
True and it would finally force congress to work together
He was also a democratic socialist. In fact many things about this country are socialist ideologies.
Due to too many progressive presidents
Almost any president you is going to be considered progressive. Times were changing rapidly and they had to do the same with the country.
G1ngerBoy
Under 25 here and my opinion is anyone willing to vote for him needs a free class on economics
Go read how he planned to pay for college tuitions with a 0.5% tax on Wall Street speculation. How he planned to end NAFTA, etc.
We're falling behind. And it's because of Reaganomics and similar backwards policies. And people like you fight to keep it that way.
aaront50
Reaganomics did what it was supposed to do in its time. It is now out dated, yes. SS needs to go, it is out dated as well.
Reaganomics destroyed the middle class and empowered the rich even more. That's the opposite of its explicit purpose.
Read how he had the best budget outcome of any candidate AND did it while driving massive job creation, by using MODERN economics.
And you need one on reading comprehension. Go read his platform. Go see that he proposed no new taxes on the bottom 80% of Americans.
Well technically single payer is a tax but we'd eliminate health insurance payments in all corporate and family budgets so even trade IMO
Yeah, costs go up, but savings go up more for everyone but the top 1-2% iirc. The cutoff was like $248k/year income.
CodeWarrior
Well over 25 here, and I have had a not-free class on economics. I will still vote for Bernie if he goes independant.
Because American Republicans and Libertarians are still clinging on to 100 year old models that don't function today.
Bullshit.
He was a Social Democrat, not a Socialist. And the loan payment was from a 0.5% tax on Wall Street speculation. Not you.
WayneSLuther
Plot twist, previous comment was from a person working on Wall Street. But honestly, we had to pay our own loans any do they get the way out
HellaDonkeys
I'm just guessing here but your loans were probably significantly less than theirs, and you probably got a well paying job right away.
If you have a 401(k) or a mortgage or an auto loan that fee would trickle down to you. The whole country would pay for your loan
Yes, because we all know costs trickle down, but profits only trickle up. The wealthy have proven that over and over in recent decades.
A 0.5% tax would be tiny. Meanwhile $6k of the average yearly income is paid towards subsidies for banks, oil, and farmers.
JustTheMostLiberal
So when it's repaying a loan the tax can cover everyone's tuition but it's too tiny for Wall Street to notice? I'm not buying it.
I've never wanted him as president, and I'm under 25. The idiots only need to learn the history of communism to see its flaws, and failure.
That's hilarious because you clearly don't know what communism is.
Then I guess Russia, China, North Korea, Vietnam, etc. aren't communist, or have ever been.
Well of course they are but how in the world is Sanders considered a communist?
Communism isn't even related to him man. That's a system of government, not an economic system. Sounds like you need the class
There is political communism and economic communism. Sounds like you need "the class"
Neither of which are what Bernie advocates, as economic communism still puts /most/ of business in the hands of the government
Also Marxism is a proposal for a state economic system the same way A Modest Proposal was a treatise on improving Irish food infrastructure
*slow clap*
He ran as a communist. Communism controls everything. Political, cultural, and economic.
He ran as a democratic socialist.
