Ben Carson being so high on that list makes me think it's not all it's cracked up to be.

<3 Bernie
He said Mossadegh again

lol...the Bern has obviously read Hitchens work on Kissinger.
Lovely to hear some critique of Kissinger from him <3
I'll admit I'd like to see a proper source for that. Might have to harass that guy who compiled the list on twitter.
Bernie dissing Putin 
This is just based on my perception but he didn't really seem like an establishment backed candidate that would draw a lot of large donations, so his spot on that list makes sense to me. With that being said I didn't do much research (ie where he was receiving money from) after learning where he stood on a number of issues as it was very obvious he was not the candidate for me. Honestly I'm a bit surprised at Trump's position on that list, thought he would be getting a larger percentage of smaller donations based on the frustrated feeling he has tapped into regarding the present political situation in America.
It's been quite consistently reported. Not even online, it's apparently donations by mail
His points have gravity, substance and are real. You can tell he believes in what he is saying.
He is really detailing how he would pay for the proposals he has made.
TBF Hillary is trying to pivot.
I have to add her answer about her superpac was BS. She actually said it wasn't her superpac..they "just decided to support her".
Does anybody here speak Jive?

My stream keeps dying just when Sanders is about to speak on a make-or-break point. Irritating.
EDIT: My net recovered moments after the debate got over, every page was taking years to open before. Either everyone in the area was watching the Dem debate online (though my area is mostly students from India and China) or this is a wall-street led conspiracy, with Time Waner feeling the Bern

After Clinton attacked Sanders for not supporting Obama, Sander's response was:
"One of us ran against Obama, I was not that person."
FEEL THE BERN

when in doubt, hide behind Obama........great strategy Hillary.
thats not my Super Pack..its Obama's Super Pack.
They just like to throw money around....

Hillary will win this state.
reverse psychology?
Why d'you think so? Sanders is at 40+ points in the polls (the gap is about 10-15 maybe) without any campaign; it's a very white state. Seems exactly like his territory.
If you're referring to the audience, I'm not sure they are representative. From (the very very little) that I saw, they seemed to be mostly old - and there Hillary holds her lead.

If you look at the trends, Bernie has been closing the gap massively. The last poll was Jan 21 where her lead was just 2%. With Bernie's momentum, I can easily see him overtaking her.

That debate setting was clearly stacked with Hillary voters... A quick pan of the crowd showed that it wasnt exactly the kind of demo you'd expect at a university.

Moderators didn't seem that much better either, at times. They were whispering while he was talking a lot of time, not least like in this example:
I know I'm not the only one who hears an "oh god" there when he brings up Kissinger and Vietnam.

I'm definitely feeling the Bern, it's a shame his chance is so low.
That Kissinger dissing was beautiful.

Well she is certainly more qualified than most to assess his prettiness or lack thereof.
Maybe she did, maybe she felt a sneeze coming. Honestly I wouldn't jump to conclusions. Just let Kissinger's record speak for itself
Why don't the Bernie people prep him with more stats and numbers?
Like they're saying on CNN, he got called out on his healthcare promises...yet he refused to work out the numbers time and time again.
Still think he lacks substance when it comes to some of his policies(potentially very good policies)

Carnal Wishes wasn't too bad.

Yeah, just wondering if anybody else did a double take on that.
Check his website, dude. There's plenty of substance there. A lot more than what Hillary's put forward.
I'm coming from the perspective of the debate and what people take away from that.
Hillary attacked him again and again on his healthcare policy and he didn't state what the overall cost would be...instead saying, healthcare is a right not a privilege.
Again, that got applause and sounds good....but it doesn't answer the question.
Either we have a lot of Bernie fans here or am I the only one who thought Clinton performed well in the debate?
She went after Sanders on how he manages to promises on Healthcare and his promises on free college especially with state governors like Scott Walker. His answer was evasive and again reverted to his stump speech about 'right to healthcare' and 'look at other countries' and 'Wall Street'. She did well again in foreign policy (not surprising) and played up to the African American voters by closely tying herself to Obama and surprisingly managed to look endearing to women.
I thought 'You aren't there in the White house yet' was a bit of an off moment for Bernie. I didn't think of it that much, but reading tweet reactions, others thought about it too.
I thought she was leading in the state. I'm no fan of Hillary though, glad to see Sanders win here and everywhere.
My connection kept going but I feel he could have done better at many points. He has published the costing of his healthcare plan, and spoken about it. He could have done that here too without needing to go back to his core speech.
I'm just not sure how much the debate affects votes, and his numbers in the state are evidently better than I thought.
Sanders needs to take more direct hits at Clinton if anything. Maybe bit like Obama did.
She went after him more this time and he reacted.

That's all very well, except that she ran against him before he was president when they were both senators. Since he was elected she has been loyal and served as secretary of state for 4 years. The thing is to support the leader, which she has done, more so than Sanders.
Anyone know if this is true? t work so cant access youtube

He is a bit socially awkward, isn´t he?
Little brother syndrome, forever in the shadow of W.
His body language and manner of speaking are very unconvincing. He wouldn't sell door to door cosmetics with it, nevermind policies.
She did perform well, although there were a couple of low blows from both sides. Her best moments were at the beginning when she questioned his free everything policies.

Trump basically using the same line of mockery that fox news used on him regarding Megyn Kelly and Putin.
He is. I think it's quite cute. I'm not sure that's entirely what Americans look for in a president, though...
I think Hillary did perform well, but every time she answers it seems like its off a script. I get the impression that she really rehearses her talking points.
Bernie talks from the heart and says what he believes. He needs to start hitting her as hard as she is hitting him.
The room was also stacked with Hillary supporters. Her answer on why she had a superpac was insulting to the intelligence.
how can she have won the debate with that ridiculous answer about her Super Pac. The coruption of the political system is the center of this debate this year.
