That’s a pretty dumb argument. Obviously Bernie thinks he could do more good on climate change by being president than he can by not traveling.

A great way to build authenticity is to basically set out a personal platform at a young age and then stick to it for decades. Just repeat the same things over and over. You can play a video of a Bernie Sanders speech from 30 years ago and he says a lot of same things he says today. US voters will overlook a LOT if they think they have found authenticity. By the way, Donald Trump also enjoys his same advantage, as a lot of the things Trump was saying in the 1980s he stuck with even as president. This would make Bernie Sanders a strong opponent to Trump. He's actually the ONLY democrat that could have beaten Trump in 2016. The problem is that he would be 79 when he takes the oath. I just can't see voters picking someone that old. I have always said that the most important thing to me in a candidate is knowing what they believe in, even if it isn't the same as me (like RLLD said). Candidates have to say all kinds of crazy shiot to get thru primaries (reference Romney, Mitt). I like the word "authenticity," I think that captures it well. Sanders is about as authentic as it gets. But he is 180 degrees from me in beliefs. That would be a test for me; could I vote for him? Hmm... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are probably security reasons for it. Odd to see you blasting Bernie for hypocrisy though. Trump hires illegals and visa workers and you’re all over his nuts every day.

The only people who fall for this sh1t are idiot college kids and loony liberal men. The loony liberal women will only vote for women and the loony liberal blacks will only vote for blacks.

RaiderHaters Revenge 3,594 Posted February 21, 2019 Bernie is already underfire, for making the only statement that I wholeheartedly agree with BERNIE SANDERS: We have got to look at candidates, you know, not by the color of their skin, not by - not by their sexual orientation or their gender and not by their age. I mean, I think we have got to try to move us toward a non-discriminatory society which looks at people based on their abilities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
