Bernie is basically a one trick pony, in a good way. Blue_true Jun 2019 #67
I wonder why no one mentioned last night that in 1974 he was against school busing. George II Jun 2019 #124
George. One of the sad realities is forced busing was more of an issue in the north. Blue_true Jun 2019 #127
I wish I could remember the question, but he was asked something totally unrelated.... George II Jun 2019 #110
When he was asked what he would do if Roe v. Wade was gone, he talked about Medicare for All. betsuni Jun 2019 #120
That was it. It was an irrelevant answer to the question, zooming right back to his talking points. George II Jun 2019 #122
As always. betsuni Jun 2019 #123

I very much agree with your take! GreenPartyVoter Jun 2019 #103

It's so funny how you're calling out "Biden Supporters" Cha Jun 2019 #80
IDK, I'm watching Biden get buried on CNN BeyondGeography Jun 2019 #33
Nor will the exchange with Michael Bennet, or his defense of the NRA Perseus Jun 2019 #46
Among those who "count", yes indeed. OilemFirchen Jun 2019 #34
Not at all. He was supportive of others' ideas and stayed true to doing the greatest good for ancianita Jun 2019 #35
NO ... it was Gillibrand nt Raine Jun 2019 #36

I said tye same thing on another thread--about Bernie deserving credit for moving the tblue37 Jun 2019 #54
Yes, let's give credit where it's due. He also got young voters energized, no small feat. JudyM Jun 2019 #134
I don't agree, I think Biden was the biggest looser Perseus Jun 2019 #43
Gun manufactuters call the tune the NRA dances to...he is correct. Demsrule86 Jun 2019 #55

Honestly, as I said in another thread, I think Senator Harris effectively ended Joe Biden tonight. Still In Wisconsin Jun 2019 #53
She didnt. She is going nowhere. She wont win a general and Demsrule86 Jun 2019 #58
Wishful thinking? I'm FOR Biden. Still In Wisconsin Jun 2019 #62
Warren emerged from the other debate. I think she likely is the one to watch. Blue_true Jun 2019 #75
Time to switch candidates. Biden held his own. He was on a leash, so a bit strained. Her emmaverybo Jun 2019 #106

I really think it will come down to Warren going nose to nose with someone else. Blue_true Jun 2019 #65
Why would a Bernie supporter Eric J in MN Jun 2019 #86
Bernie was largely irrelevant and easily attacked by the others in the debate. Blue_true Jun 2019 #117
If Elizabeth Warren is sincere about Eric J in MN Jun 2019 #130
I'm honestly surprised he has surged recently on DU. Quackers Jun 2019 #69
