It’s increasingly clear that Sanders has no serious opposition and Democrats are going to need to start reconciling himself to the inevitability of his nomination.

The DNC will never allow that.
Just too much money at stake.
Imagine the hords of swamp crocodiles staffing the agencies supervising entire industries.
Imagine the healthcare industry after being nationalized.
Imagine all the basic enforcement they close their eyes upon.
Much worse disruptive than Trump.
He may be found dead from apparent heart attack with a pillow over his head before he gets the nomination.

The Winner. Trump.

Dejavu of 1968 Chicago convention incoming in 3...2...

@Patrick -

pretty impressive programming of our bot friend. Answer question with another question!

If that’s the debate, imagine what the convention will be like.

Gladiator combat and free shit. Isn't bread and circuses what the progressives are all about?

Bloomberg Said Young People Support Bernie Because They're Dumb

Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has a surprising theory about why young people love Sen. Bernie Sanders: They’re morons.

In a wide-ranging interview one month after President Donald Trump won the 2016 election, Bloomberg said Sanders would have won that race if he had gotten the Democratic nomination in large part because young people have no idea what they’re doing.

Bloomberg is right there.

Bloomberg is smart and competent, and he takes an utterly pragmatic approach to governing that actually seems to work! If he weren’t such a right wing dictator, I might even vote for him.
We already have a smart and pragmatic leader who isn’t a right wing dictator no matter what the pussified Left thinks.

Bloomberg is wrong about young people liking Bernie because they’re dumb; they hear him offer free shit and they want it.
Young people are generally broke compared to older people.
So, the like the guy who offers the most free shit is popular with them.
Student loan forgiveness is an example.
Bernie is a dangerous lunatic, he buys votes with free shit but pours liberal kool aid over it so he seems sincere.

If Bernie wins on Super Tuesday, I'm going to look into going to Med School.

Why? In all these socialized medicine plans that other countries have the doctors get screwed.

One of my main reasons opting of not going to med school 2as the extreme push for socialized healthcare. Doctors were already getting screwed by giant hospitals and insurance companies. That would be the death blow.

So I can default on an expensive loan - I was on the 7 year plan and paid cash, dammit!

Oakman, I thought the same thing as you, and heard from doctors that it was a pain in the ass.

But, my friend got MD and never practiced, rather did research, then pharmaceutical company work, now he’s a scientist at a bio pharmaceutical startup.

I was amazed he didn’t have to see patients to make a living, but he said he had corporate pressures and asshole bosses so it sucked a bit in a different way.

I contemplated the research route through MD/PhD. In hindsight, I should have done it because the "PhD" work they make them do is a joke to justify the degree. It's free tuition and $30k a year stipend, maybe more because this was 2002. I basically hate research too though....so I'm not that regretful of it. If you speak to most doctors, they don't want their kids going into medicine. I always say...if you are going to be a heart surgeon....fine...you will be rich. There is too much downward pressure on doctor's wages to make it the home run it used to be.

The local plumber by me is charging just as much...not going through all the bullshit with insurance...and he's got so much work that he has a 4 month backlog.

How many of the other candidates did Biden grope?
