98. I was a Kucinich supporter before....

Dec 2015

I could not understand the support for Obama from Liberals. He was a moderate policy wonk with the longest withdrawal date from Iraq of anyone running. Now we have Hillary again and it doesn't MATTER how hooked in she is with Wall Street or what kind of dirty tricks get pulled on her behalf because her supporters don't CARE about actual issues because love is blind.

As a former issue driven Liberal and former Kucinich supporter I am delighted to see Sanders supporters make up about 90% of the online community. All the "cool kids" are "feeling the Bern" but are STILL being portrayed as a tiny insignificant fringe of weirdos by the Beltway and they're thought of as EVIL by many Hillary supporters.

Lately, Bernie wants to get some of the angry working class types to recognize who the real enemy is out there. Trump has been telling these people who haven't had a raise in 30 years to blame the immigrants when it's the whole system sending the nation's wealth to Wall Street instead of payroll that's to blame.

You claim that's "wooing the Tea Party" and expect that to fly.
