Bernie and Goliath. Bernie Sanders is David. Hillary Clinton is Goliath. Sanders: I'm here to take back our democracy from millionaires and billionaires! Clinton: How cute!
When Dem cartoonists start to make fun of their candidates it’s because doubts about winning the elections start to creep in.Interestingly enough we all know the story and David did slay Goliath; is this prophetic or not.The would be queen of the US has shown clearly she has clay/greedy feet and it’s making Dems in general very afraid. No need for the Con to even lift a finger, she will bring herself down.
I gave $50 to the Bernie Sanders campaign. I don’t have any expectation that he will win the presidency and don’t agree with all his ideas, but his vision for our country needs to be seen by all Americans. Hillary has the big donors and Bernie depends on small donors. I hope that many citizens will support Bernie in creating a contest for the Dem nomination, not a coronation.
I am glad Bernie Sanders is running. He will be doing the United States of America a great service simply by doing so. He will focus voters on what needs to happen to make America prosperous again: creating jobs, building the middle class, ending wage stagnation, fighting poverty, supporting appropriate regulation, rebuilding infrastructure, supporting education and research. He will provide a sharp contrast to the Republican candidates, whose message to the voters, so far, seems to be that they are not Obama or Clinton. The United States of America needs a champion of the working poor and the middle class. Hooray for Bernie!
Sanders will always be 20 points behind Hillary, but Warren could pull another Obama on her. If Democrats listened to Warren, Hillary would have a fight on her hands, Hillary preempted all of the left wing ideas when she announced her candidacy. She presented a platform that supports all of the things that the left wing wants, which was a really smart move. She announced them early so that she could refer to them in running for the Democratic primary, but they would be ancient history by the time she was running for president. You may not agree with her politically, but there is no one else in the race on either side smart enough to make a move like that.
Are you saying the Mr. Sanders pro choice stance is bad, but the Republican pro life stance is good, even though it is pro death penalty and pro war. Mr Bush’s pro life stance has killed and maimed thousands of young Americans and untold millions of civilians in his phony wars. How is that pro life? The real problem is most Americans are so stupid they don’t know they are stupid.
So, are you suggesting imperial occupation of the Middle East? That has sometimes kept them relatively peaceful for centuries, while they mostly fight the occupiers. Then the empires withdraw & they go back to grudges, some older than the written word, others left over from frevious empires.Just get out.
^Deregulation led to the Savings and Loan Debacle and the bank failures that caused the 2008 recession. That deregulation was due to Replublican legislation. So Obama and Clinton voted to help get us out of the mess Republicans created? Good for them!
If our neighbor from Vermont wins the nomination, I will not waste my vote on anyone else. If the American worker/former middle-class does not get out and vote for Bernie, then we will get what we deserve.

When Republican/Fox “news” viewers cartoonists start to make fun of their candidates, it’s because Hell has frozen over.

You don’t have to have a political orientation to hate and abhor Killary Klingon. All you need is a brain and a conscience.

I don’t understand why we have a cartoon with a Biblical reference starring Bernie Sanders. Truly a mixed metaphor.
