If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:

what happened to the 15 dollars minimum JI7 Jul 2019 #2
I think this is a dodge to get the heat off the $15 minimum he isn't paying his workers. George II Jul 2019 #19
people should respond back by asking about the 15 JI7 Jul 2019 #21
Yep Gothmog Jul 2019 #75
Bit of a cheap shot if you ask me ... most people prefer a salary ... mr_lebowski Jul 2019 #89

This is a blatant attack: George II Jul 2019 #5

It's the way it was said. Here we go again with that Sinatra/Davis Jr. song again.... George II Jul 2019 #45
This is obviously Sanders last chance SCantiGOP Jul 2019 #54
The thing, though, is that if he remains below 15% in many of those states, he gets zero delegates.. George II Jul 2019 #59
That's a common strategy with him. Someone disagrees with him, then he claims that ehrnst Jul 2019 #98
When someone attacks someone's character, that's above and beyond ehrnst Jul 2019 #97

Won't want? melman Jul 2019 #102

Yep. We should know better than pulling this "Harry and Louise" add nonsense. Hassin Bin Sober Jul 2019 #12
Totally irrelevant to the OP. "The Pledge" didn't exist way back then. Oh well..... George II Jul 2019 #17
Spot on as usual HBS!! InAbLuEsTaTe Jul 2019 #22
What do his or your post have to do with the OP? I'll wait. George II Jul 2019 #46

True. It was very similar Autumn Jul 2019 #24
Two completely different statements. Anyway, where is that second one from? I'll wait.... George II Jul 2019 #34
Both are very similar. Autumn Jul 2019 #35
No they're not, not even close. George II Jul 2019 #47
Lets see. When something dies it's gone. When none of our citizens get Medicare, it's gone. YMMV Autumn Jul 2019 #49
If you rewrite it I'm sure you can make them the same, but they're not. George II Jul 2019 #50
I didn't re write them. Those are quotes from both Trump and Biden. Autumn Jul 2019 #53
What you wrote in post #49 is different from what you wrote in #24. To many that's a rewrite. George II Jul 2019 #57
I separated the quotes. They are exact snippets from each one's quote. They are similar in Autumn Jul 2019 #64

They aren't similar to me Autumn because they aren't similar. George II Jul 2019 #95
They are not similar at all -- a 5th grader can see that nt Vegas Roller Jul 2019 #84

This Nina Turner attack was DISHONEST Vegas Roller Jul 2019 #83
Just another reason why Sanders won't be the nominee. This is the true face of Sanders. A divisive, still_one Jul 2019 #8
disruptive? I would say using GOP talking points is disruptive. Bernie is just telling it like it is yaesu Jul 2019 #39
And no one, not even BS, can show how what Biden said is "right wing talking points". Amazing.... George II Jul 2019 #48
