I say let's push it about sixty times, even though it's almost certainly not going to go through. See how the repubs like it, except we're fighting to implement something good, instead of repeal something good.

Not a bad idea at all. While that's being done Bernie and other dems should go on tv and explain the facts.

But it's not like we know what happens when you have a free market system with little-to-no regulation...WHOOPS we had that before the ACA but what if you regulate a free market system? I'll be darned that's exactly what the ACA was.

Bernie couldn't beat Hillary.

Shit, I really hope he doesn't fall victim to an EXTREMELY CONVENIENT BUT MOST UNFORTUNATE HEART ATTACK HOW TERRIBLY SAD any time soon. We (and by that I mean you Yanks) need that guy more than ever right now.

True but he polled really well against Trump. Trump's personal attacks wouldn't have landed. Bernie's true populism would beat Trump's fake populism

Also the DNC did a huge screw job on Bernie with Donna Brazille handing Hillary debate questions beforehand and superdelegates declaring for Hillary before anything even started.

Back into religion we go...

"Would've won.."

Oh jump off a cliff already. The "Lost Cause" bullshit is tiring. Thankfully, Senator Sanders is doing something unlike some of his continuously mourning fans.

Good work Senator. Doing things is why I have voted and will continue to vote for you.

Imagine what he would have managed to get done by now as president.

Thinking about this actually brings a tear to my eye.

As has rightly been pointed out, though, it doesn't fix a thing. 
Still, I'm glad Bernie didn't give up on America.  He just keeps fighting!

They had an opponent file on Sanders that was two feet thick.  They would have raked him over the coals with the same bullshit lies they pulled on Clinton.  And it all would have come down to this.



Which would have been enough for most of the assholes who voted for the WLB to begin with.

Trump didn't either, at least not in the popular vote.
Putey might have helped Bernie overcome that but I don't think Bernie is a corrupt Russian-hugger.

If only that mattered!

He's going to need a bigger flame thrower to burn that trash heap they tried pushing through, I've always been in favor the single payer system, as well the parliament system most countries use. Is just me or are we just stuck in the past as a country? Other countries have made strides in many areas, while our population is kept under educated and were becoming the laughing stock of the world. I'm starting to feel like I need a shirt that says "I'm not connected to you in the least" with arrows pointing every way. Present company excluded of course.
