Bernie seems to love south America

I've noticed he speaks about SA and needing to engage them more. Also he seems to really support their structure and government, which is borderline communism. I believe this is also what hurt him, praising Fidel Castro, honeymooning in the USSR, saying south America has the right idea....These things do not sit well with Democrats. I'm wondering if Bernie believes Venezuela has the right idea? After all did he not support Huge Chavez?

South America has over a dozen nations. And Cuba is not one of them. Geez.

Ecuador here. Your OP is swill.

Maybe a trip out of your basement once in a while might provide some education.

against South America and Communism .... you should check them out, it seems to be a natural fit.

Can't have leaders willing to talk to other leaders with a bit of respect ... that would be so unAmerican -- USA, USA, USA. lapel flag pin, war, war, USA USA.
