MaggieD (1,835 posts) My 22 year old son on Bernie versus HRCNow Bernie supporters don’t flip out. He would love to see a socialist as president. He would also love to see a woman as president. So he’s pretty damn happy that both are running. A short background on my kid. He is very politically savvy for his age. I started taking him to meetings with Democrats and other liberal policy advocacy gatherings from the time he was about 9 years old. He would sit and do his homework, but he also absorbed a lot, and on top of that politics was a regular conversation at our house. Once, he was at a meeting and someone asked if anyone else had anything to say. And he piped up. His comments were very well received. That led to him being asked, when he was 12, to give a short 5 minute speech at a Dem fundraiser attended by about 1000 people, including several senators, two governors, and a boatload of congress people. He got a standing ovation. He knows his politics. He’s also a musician, and with that comes lots of friends. I think he has something like 4000 on Facebook, most of whom he has actually met. He is one of those people you would call a “connector.†So he was visiting last night and I asked him what he thinks the vibe is on the candidates among young people he knows. He said no one cares about the attacks on HRC. That the attacks just makes her look more formidable. To him, they all blend in with the right wing attacks she has endured for decades. Whatever, is his view point. I asked him if he thought Bernie could win. He said, no. Maybe 10% chance, if that. I asked him why not and his answer was surprising. At least to me. He said Bernie’s voice is grating, and every time he speaks he sounds like he is grandpa lecturing at you, and people his age just tune him out. He said he “doesn’t inspire my crowd.†He was clearly kind of bummed about that. I think Bernie needs to work on the charisma thing a bit. Like me, he would vote for either of them. But that is his take on things as they stand now.
Like me, he would vote for either of them
I'm sure the DUmmy's imaginary child prodigy has already voted for Dem candidates, and have no doubt he'll do so again. Several times.
I think we know that prodigy.
What the hell is Wisconsin incident response? Is that like OSHA or something closer to the zombie response stickers I see on vehicles?
He made it up according to DU. Hey and Nadin would make a dynamic duo.
Two more DU superzeros, wearing their underwear outside their pants. Laser Hass will have some company!
Maybe he's promoting public safety by serving as a speedbump.
Having to fabricate idiot stories for a collection of lunatics...priceless.
Bernie is a stupid but well meaning socialist.Hillary is just an evil mean fascist.As I have said before, If it is Bernie, Hillary, or Jeb, I'd vote Bernie. He would do the least damage to the country and our freedoms.
Captain Safety doesn't have sense enough to get out of the roadway.Maybe he's promoting public safety by serving as a speedbump.
