how much does it take to make a stupid person, to become not stupid, that is the big question?

prollly right, but not sure. Medicare for all would have been a good deal now anyway.
Leftist policies are always a good deal. But most of America doesn't seem to realize that yet. Too bad.

I think we're slightly overestimating the political intelligence of the American people. You are absolutely right when you say that the American system is ridiculous, because it absolutely is. But Americans have been brainwashed much more than I even considered possible. Many of them simply do not understand what some political ideals actually represent. When you say medicare for all, they just cannot see that that is a desirable thing. I feel sorry for them.

It sucks, does it not. You got played off, and through you where covered by your employers. suck really hard. hmm, now you got laid off. How are you going to provide for your health care: testing, or if anyone get really sick. Is there something there, there, that prohibits you from getting the cover that you thought you would receive? I mean, in a system like you have, you can never be sure, and you are always out to put the other down, that ones that keep your premiums up? Sucker, all of you

Many people dont seem to understand how Bernie could possibly lose, which is why you see so many people baselessly saying its rigged and the other side is cheating, because they can't wrap their minds around how someone wouldn't vote for him. Similar mental gymnastics that they somehow think Biden winning is handing Trump the election, as if millions of people who didn't vote for Sanders in the primary will magically appear to vote for him in the general election.

I'm completely understanding why Bernie lost. The reason I thought Bernie would win essentially boils down to me underestimating the illogical aversion towards social policies that the average American has. By saying that, I do not show that I do not understand why Bernie lost. I simply state that I misjudged the American political climate.

hmm. nice thoughts, but I do not think Biden has any enthusiasm among the Ameican ppl. Correct me if I am wrong.
These past few weeks should explain to everyone, that medicare for all, it is essential. It will cover you if you get laid off. Its safe buddy.

A lot of people are enthusiastic about beating Trump. Also enthusiasm doesn't vote

Yes. I don't understand how you've been reading all my posts and yet think that I would think otherwise.

How were the polls going in to vote, so strangely off from the exit ones?

Are you suggesting that all polls are totally accurate? Ah, well then Biden beats Trump in head to head polling more than Bernie does, so you have to support Biden.

I was thinking about this the other day. I actually think the chance of Sanders beating Trump in a hypothetical election (so ignoring the fact that he won't win the primary) is much bigger now than it was a little while ago. Fast forward to november and I think Sanders is the candidate that has the best shot with a large margin.

That being said, I see the irony in some of these libertarians that voted for Biden losing their jobs.
