I could go on all day."


It trains them to make money so they can buy stuff.

Well you still didn't answer me on how "society trains people to be careless of consequences".

This is not something society "trains" but one of society's most important roles is to make sure its people are educated. We were all born "careless" in the context that you mentioned and have been educated out of it to a certain degree in our time on this planet. These "careless" people are a result of society's failure to function in its role of education.

"society" is too vague of a scapegoat for the individual failures and choices each of us are accountable for.

Of course thats easy for you, someone who was adequately educated in this area, to say.

OR is that just because you were smart enough to decide to be born at the right time and place.

Social safety nets, going into debt for English degrees, "Houses are an investment". Consume instead of produce mentality.

Wait, what? He is Jewish? That's news to me! That also means he won't become president, unfortunately.

The other 20% are either old, Orthodox, or EXTREMELY rich.

But even the old ones are super Democrat because they have been since FDR and Kennedy. My grandparents for example have always been huge supporters of the Clintons.

I think it's clear from context he was referring to things like armbands to identify Muslims (or Jews, or whoever). Like special IDs for Muslims, which Trump has talked about.

^^ it's refreshing to see a presidential candidate make statements based on an accurate understanding of society rather than paranoid fear and hate. I've forgotten what that feels like.

God help us if one of the nuts from the GOP becomes President.

this is the fault of the vendor and the DNC, and the vendor has said that they couldn't save data only view items for voters they had access too

the DNC would not have leaked this if it was not Sanders

Are these things known by the general public at large:

If not, why not?
If yes, he would become pres, right?

After February 9 I'm sure diversity will be more prominent for Nevada (76% white) and South Carolina (68.3%)

A politician appealing to the voters in the only 2 places that get to vote in the next 2 weeks?!?!

He's making waves with African Americans and #blacklivesmatter on a different front. If you're upset a singular ad was aimed at just two states, blame the primary process and the electoral college.

Yes, he's rising like a rocket or an old Flash superhero. He will join with the republicans/conservatives to stop Hillary Clinton. He's doing an amazing job, got supported by both blacks and whites. Unbelievable! This old man is fantastic! He deserves much more attention and respect.

At several points in time he referred to it as satire to make people think about gender roles. I personally don't see it as such, but it's coming from the horse's mouth.
