I don't get it. We are a democracy. The voters decide. So, if the majority of Americans vote for socialism, that's what the MAJORITY wants. If they don't, then ok. Sit down. STFU. Ok?
Bernie & Warren destroyed whatever chance they had. Warren should've dropped out and endorsed Sanders to counter all of Biden's endorsements. She took enough of the vote away to sink Bernie's numbers enough for Biden to win.
The majority of Americans don't even vote. What are you talking about?
The majority of people who do vote come from three or four states. Because California wants Socialism doesn't mean West Virginia does. If you want Socialism, move to a socialist country. Our country isn't the richest and most prosperous country because of socialism....It's because of Capitalism.
Nothing plays better than bringing everybody down to a miserable Mendosa line of poverty.
Really? I'll take some misspeak over a daily stream of purposeful lying and misinformation, etc.
I agree. The majority of Dem voters want socialism. That’s my point. If you look at the numbers of the states, remove Warren from the equation and Bernie carries more than Biden. Hence, the Dem majority is voting for Socialism and as such, should not be allowed back into power, from my perspective.
You like living in a democracy? That's the downfalls. Majority/population wins. If you don't like it, move.
And if the majority of voters don't vote, but complain about "socialism" or who wins, then they SHOULD HAVE VOTED! Again, those people should STFU.
Democrats don't allow a "democracy" or popular vote winner to claim their nomination process. Delegates are apportioned based on percentages of the vote. Similar to how our representative Republic apportions Congressional districts. If we're a straight "Democracy" where majority rules, why do Democrats want to eliminate the electoral College? Why do they oppose rules to end filibusters? Why don't they allow their popular vote winner in primaries to claim all their delegates? Winner take all. Majority rules right? Democracy right? [eyeroll]
Ironically, the Republican process does allow for winner take all in primaries, yet Socialist countries do not allow citizens to vote against Socialism, it's imposed on them. Not Democracy, tyranny.

You realize that the Electoral College is NOT a good example to use when talking about a "straight democracy", correct?[eyeroll]
By the way, who won that "direct vote" in 2016? [winking]
YOU said we are a "Democracy" referring to our electoral process and who wins the majority of votes. We are not a Democracy in that majority rules, and our Government is set up as a representative Republic where the minority has rights.
You are wrong and a liar.
opcorn:I like our country and Constitution. We are a country of freedom and Capitalism because of Socialism and government control. It turned out great. You leftists are the ones trying to bring back what we ran from. You move.
And what if the people (Electoral College) elects a "socialist" POTUS? Will you say the same thing then?
and this is the central issue to your blindness, arrogance, and ignorance. Not voting does not erase a US citizen from "complaining". It's call political sovereignty. I can vote or not and still justly complain and do not have to STFU.
There is a moral duty to vote against socialism as well as constitutional reasons. There are even more values to use to oppose socialism, communism, and any other form of economic/political system that reduces human freedom looking down the barrel of a gun. Socialism has killed more than coronavirus will ever kill.
What Socialists get elected admitting they want to run Socialism? Your own party won't even let the guy promising it for America win their nomination. [eyeroll]
Why aren't YOU voting for the Socialist if it's so great?
Democrats and Leftists don't want to vote under the electoral College system. It's a reflection of our Representative Republic, and Leftists can't win when everyone fairly gets a voice.
Socialists conquer nations, and force people to live under Socialism. They (Socialists) don't allow Democratic votes to get rid of it.
He's tired of mission creep. He is actually pissed that Warren is proving she's full of **** and won't drop out and endorse Bernie.
MWV is a bigger lying ***** than Elizabeth Warren. At least she admits she's a Socialist. That lying punk won't even admit he has a full time job!
If Warren actually believes the crap she spouts she would drop out today and endorse Bernie. She's a hypocritical turd that has been playing these fools in the seek of power. She can prove me wrong today if she has any integrity at all.
She'll prove to you today she has none. Just like MWV will prove consistently he's nothing but a pathological liar.
The "Democrat Socialist" and "Progressives" should be pissed at her until she does.
Most of the country is against Socialism and you should be too. That said, Bernie wouldn't get elected. The People do NOT want Socialism. Young and brainwashed voters who think Bernie will actually make life free for them are the ones who make Bernie a blip on the map/ When push comes to shove, we will reject socialism. That's why Democrats rallied around Biden this year and blocked Sanders in 2016. They know he will lose. Those who want Socialism should move to a Socialist country. They'll be back. You can count on it. Socialism isn't freedom and life isn't free. Welcome to the United States. The richest, most powerful and prosperous country in the free world. We got here on Freedom and Capitalism. Why would anyone want to tear down what we've done and go back to Socialism? Complete and total ignorance.
