2020 Democratic Presidential Primary | OT2 | Warren's college tuition plan includes cancelling college debt

it's effectively pointing out that anyone asking about the debt is concern trolling and never cares when it's a right-wing administration ratcheting up the debt for things like billionaire tax cuts and endless war
Let alone this topic keeps being brought up for a decade now yet has not been dealt with yet.
It's because she got married, she was making 150k-250k at the various CA lawyer positions (weirdly I think it went down as state AG) and has a Senator's salary individually now, her husband is really well off.
Of course you can. It would be harder in the US but as long as you know how to sell it, populism will get people.
Making a big deal out of Bernie becoming a "millionaire" because of a book is going to backfire. Until Bernie talks about the horrible BOOK WRITERS you have nothing.
Which makes having an avowed socialist on the platform delicious.
meaning stupid people saying stupid shit on a stupid network isn't exactly shocking
If I recall, the number listed for her is her household income. Much of that is the result of her husband.
That said, I don't think any of this really matters. A person who makes 1-2 million a year moves through the world in a pretty similar way to someone who earns 500-600k. The distinctions aren't very meaningful.
Bernie on Fox works so well. He's a perfect candidate to go on there. He can get aggressive, he can interrupt and mock the hosts without coming out looking bad. You can't do that shit when the host is Wolf or Cooper. They really fucked up by not just letting Bret Baier host it. She tried to go 1 on 1 against Bernie and it looked so awful and it was so obvious what was happening.

Watching the Bernie Town hall through David Packman. Damn Bernie is hitting all the points very well. His messaging is right on point with healthcare and he isn't wishy washy about the tax issue. Yes you are going to pay more taxes but no more deductible, no more co pay, no more network shit.
Oh you're talking about the Obama started the recession bit not the town hall
Mayor Pete on Maddow in about a half an hour. Is there a way to stream her show free legally at the time it is airing?
That's exactly why I compared him to Hillary, who had a very similar narrative about being nothing but anti-trump despite her policy agenda being highly detailed. Why should people have to seek out what your policies are when you already have plenty of opportunities to promote them in speeches, interviews, and advertisements?
In my view, this is the biggest reason why Buttigieg is starting to outpoll Beto.
Pete is even lighter on policy than Beto, lol. He's just more accessible atm due to MSM attention and the way he's able to defend his lack of policy eloquently.
Beto is trying to invest in local communities but he's actively racing against a narrative he could easily dispell. I don't think he was paying attention before, but hopefully he is now.

Did anyone expect this town hall to go THIS well for Bernie? I certainly didn't. Holy shit, haha
So long one is capable of having others eat their own shit, go for it.
FINALLY
EDIT:
Racial Justice page is pretty comprehensive:

let a hundred verritts bloom, all glory to our redeemed chairman daou
Also, the Sanders campaign is officially using 'Latinx' as a non-gendered word for people of Latin American descent. I can see some pretty fiery debates about that if it's something they continue to do, but good on them for being more inclusive.
Bernie killed it. You can see how the hosts were transparently trying to cause controversy and trip him up. The only complaint is that I think he should have praised Ilhan more, maybe compare the ludicrous controversy with Trump's own disrespect of 9/11.
E: Fresh off twitter.

Pro tip: if you plan on schooling someone, make sure they don't have a super sympathetic audience. Also, send your smart folks next time.
It's going to be crazy if/when Omar and AOC finally endorse Bernie. Just think of all the insane rallies with Bernie, Omar and AOC. That's the shit that's really going to help him stay in the spotlight 24/7.
