Feels like you're saying he's a fraud because he has money in the bank.
Of course he's a fraud, he's economically illiterate just like Corbyn in the UK. Promises loads of free shit especially to the young with no hope of ever delivering if he got elected. Just another rabble rouser who no one will remember in a few years when the next one comes along. Can you seriously imagine America with a socialist president.
Bernie Sanders will be too old to get the gig, he'll be late 70's by the time the next election comes around.
Donald Trump, at 70, is/was the oldest US President according to WIKI
Reagan was 69 years, 349 days
George W Bush was 64 years, 222 days
Bernie's a bit long in the tooth.
Won't say it won't happen, but I'd have money on it that he doesn't.
How much is Bernie Sanders’ Net Worth?
U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders has an estimated net worth of $1 million. This is his half of the roughly $2 million that he and his wife Jane share as a household.
Bernie Sanders makes $174,000 per year as a senator. He will also get a pension of over $70,000 when he leaves the Senate. His wife Jane was formerly president of Burlington College at a salary of $160,000, and she received a severance package of roughly $200,000 when she retired. The Sanders’ also own three homes, with a combined estimated value of at least $1.5 million.
While Sanders is not required to disclose his investments and holdings as a public official, based on past income statements and other public information, the combined $2 million net worth of the Sanders household is our educated guess at their current assets. Because Bernie Sanders owns half of that money and property, we estimate his individual net worth at $1 million.
How much is Bernie Sanders' Net Worth? - Proud Money
Sadly, I don't see a progressive politician on his heels that is willing to speak up about the problems the country has and willing to put together a plan that benefits the common American rather than corporations.. Sanders was a breath of fresh air, but it seems a last gasp.

Agreed, he seemed honest and that's rare.Originally Posted by thailazer

You blathering idiot the link I posted was from before his book was released. Even factoring in that income he his far from "privileged" as you you claimed.Originally Posted by buriramboy
The only one who (and you have proven it countless times as has been pointed out by several other posters besides me) is coming off as retarded is you.
He basically has four posts to which he makes minimal variations:
1) I hate socialists.
2) I love money. Listen to how much I have.
3) _______ is boring.
4)________ is a retard.
^ He does not realize how one dimensional he really is. A thick cnut he is.
Money that he did not earn himself but was earned by the hard efforts of other family members. He is a leach. Despicable individual really.Originally Posted by cyrille

for you TC, you bloody heathen.
aaaaah Bernie, A lost chance for some humanity in American politics.
You blathering moron the site I posted was completely credible it just so happened that the study was done before he released his book. Bernie is the most humble politician in Washington and he happens to be someone your right wing lunatics are very afraid of.Originally Posted by RPETER65
You really are a fucking moron. Single payer health care, paid secondary education and a robust social safety net do constitute insane beliefs to brainwashed imbeciles like yourself.Originally Posted by RPETER65
Fuck off back to breitfart you lemming.
The latest Republican trick is to blame others like Bernie for the language of class war that is appearing in politics today, when in fact they started a clandestine war on the working class of America with Reagan and have only intensified it. After all, their creed is mendacity. The US is run by the corporate class and political economists have a term for this. It's called corporatocracy, an aberration of capitalism. The Republicans and even the Democrats are the political arms of the corporate class.
^ That pretty much says it. I don't see the class war happening howver, as the Koch brothers and buds are firmly in control of all the spin. They might as well rewrite the preamble to the constitution:
We the People of the United States are helpless in the shadow of rich corporate executives. A more perfect Union is a thing of the past, Justice is not being served to the greedy and politically corrupt, domestic Tranquility is suffering , and the common defense has been used for personal and corporate gain. General Welfare, and the Blessings of Liberty have been taken away from ourselves as this Constitution for the United States of America now serves only the select rich with no thought for the posterity of common Americans.
