Originally posted by Darth Executor View Posthillary as president is far scarier than bernie as president. the neocons would stonewall sanders while hillary would have an easier time getting things done since they are basically the same thing. And I see no indication he is anywhere near as corrupt as she is. a bernie presidency would be 4 years of bernie shouting at the moon and nothing much happening

Practically speaking, I'm not sure what difference it makes if Sanders runs as a Democrat or Independent. You know how people sometimes complain about people who are "Republicans In Name Only"? Sanders is the opposite of that. Even if he's technically an Independent, he's really a Democrat in all but name: He almost always votes with the Democrats, caucuses with them, and I rather doubt the Democrats are actually going to run anyone against him in his re-election (they never did before).Last edited by Terraceth; 11-19-2017, 12:09 AM.

Originally posted by Cow Poke View PostIn the recent past, running for POTUS as an independent meant certain death, and only harmed the party you otherwise would likely have been representing. Given today's wacky politics, and Bernie's wacky appeal, I think all bets are off.

If for President, running as Dem only kills their chances more, so good!!!Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return.
