56. He did really well

The last time he was on Faux. Cool, calm and collected. And, of course, super, duper smart. I think a town hall is a great move, if for no other reason, to get in more practice addressing questions from the right.

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

If Bernie was complicit in having 70% of the audience stacked with his supporters Skya Rhen Apr 2019 #64
How about; let's not engage in conspiracy theories without any basis? brooklynite Apr 2019 #67
