I consider myself more of a progressive than you do, in that I actually want to get things done. nt Chichiri Mar 2016 #5
How do you know how much of a progressive I consider myself? JonLeibowitz Mar 2016 #8

No, that's a Rove-shaped crater. Look behind you. nt Chichiri Mar 2016 #43

Clinton and Sanders agree on 90% of the issues brush Mar 2016 #39
False. Prove it. Hint: Voting 90% of the time the same way doesn't work, JonLeibowitz Mar 2016 #47
You prove that they don't. It's in the congressional record brush Mar 2016 #71
... JonLeibowitz Mar 2016 #72
Guns is a major issue. brush Mar 2016 #75
So do they agree on guns? Or are you using guns to argue against your own claim about 90%? JonLeibowitz Mar 2016 #77

Yes, Hillary wants companies which legally sell firearms to be held responsible. JonLeibowitz Mar 2016 #81
I didn't agree that they differ much more than 10% on issues brush Mar 2016 #82

If you introduce an amendment to the constitution I will support it. JonLeibowitz Mar 2016 #63

This is the crux if the matter. Ghost Dog Mar 2016 #24
