Re: 2020 Democratic Primary
nice article @fightinfrenchman but the article got the fact about Bernie having a heart attack, wrong. Or do you know something that I do not? Otherwise, the article made it clear, to everybody who cares to listen, that there is no other candidate like Bernie - WE all need him

Re: 2020 Democratic Primary
@Goodspeed say:
So, the system is already in place, he will just expand it, EZ for Bernie
Just for the record, Bernie is not planning to implement M4A from one day to the next. He will use the present Medicare for all, who covers ppl over the age of 65, and gradually implement other age groups, over a period of 4 years.The reason I don't think free health care for everyone is necessary is that it works fine here without that. But again, more importantly the US health care system is currently so far from M4A that it seems likely to me that a transition overnight is unrealistic and/or will have severe negative effects on the industry. It's a good goal in the long term, but it's much more important to talk about how to get there right now. M4A who want it could be a good first step, though I won't pretend to be particularly informed on the matter.
For the record, here if you have a low income the government pays for your health insurance.
So, the system is already in place, he will just expand it, EZ for Bernie

Crystal Ball further breaks it down, on how rotten the main stream media in USA have become.
Well said Crystal, you nail it in this video.

Looks like Bernie had a mild heart attack? Glad hes ok, but this may not be good for him to take the stresses of a campaign.

Re: 2020 Democratic Primary
Andrew yang! he is young, vibrant, good speaker, intelligent and has brilliant ideas. Its no wonder why the mainstream gives him so little exposure... looks like dems making the same mistakes again.
It may be the algorithms but I have not seen one positive post for Biden, how is he the front runner? no one is talking about him. Its like Clinton all over again. And very little of warren is out there. I do not see how these polls are a reflection of reality of what people want at all.

I like Andrew Yang, he just seems to be an awkward debater which hurts him.

@howlingwolfpaw I was told Biden got all the positive attention because he's the DNC corrupt candidate!!11!

I only watched one debate, but they hardly gave him any questions or time to speak. it was all about Bernie, biden and warren. When he speaks he seems to havea good grasp of what hes talking about
