Everything he believes in has failed catastrophically every single time it's been implemented.
for starters we should be trying to eliminate the requirement for college, since most people are not going to actually learn much in it if its free. just a big waste of taxpayer money and harmful to the few actual intellectuals.
>>24675619
Any examples? I go to the God damn university of Vermont and everything is plastered with pro-Bernie stuff

We don't need another milquetoast pussy in office that's just going to blow republitards for 8 years.
We also don't need a lying cunt,though.
So as a democrat I'll probably not be voting again.
>>24675695
You mean communist propaganda.
Plus, Bernie seems like a huge fucking SJW pussy. He wouldn't be able to handle Putin.
>>24675749
No sjw I need actual things to argue with.

How is it senpai?
I used to go there. The libkeks are insufferable.
Bernard is a pussy promising bread and circuses that he can not deliver
there is literally nothing wrong with installing socialism in the united states and forcibly expropriating the wealth of the capitalist bourgeoisie
Better than having a corrupt women with a superiority complex run the country. I'd vote for Trump to just fuck shit up over that bitch.
>>24675793
Trump is doing the exact same thing.
All talk, zero substance.
It's how you win nowadays.
>>24675831
I used to be an liberal, a bleeding heart liberal.
Then I ventured onto /pol/ and in less than a week I was redpilled to death.
I now realize that Trump is the only solid choice for this country's future.
>>24675924
>Listening to pol
You're worse then a Reddit liberal
- He's a friend of the Saudis
- He supports the overthrow of Assad
- He will not cooperate with Russia and will most likely drag the U.S. into an unnecessary war with a potential ally just to satisfy private interests
- He won't deliver on anything he's promising
- He supported the 2003 invasion of Iraq and the Patriot Act
there's more shit but that's just what comes to mind. there really is no good choice this go around, as usual.

Socialism only works well in homogeneous societies, preferably small ones. The United States is one the largest and most diverse countries on earth - both geographically, ideologically, racially, and culturally.
Socialism's ideology is very tribal. You give most of your work for the tribe, and the tribe provides your needs for you in return. But when you have people that don't care they just leech off the system and lower the bar.

Socialism and Communism is the biggest lie ever fabricated by man. It's so tantalizing that even after countless evidence against it and hundreds of millions of deaths caused by it, people will still fall for it.
>>24675749
Saving that pic. Fucking hilarious.
Such an accurate representation of him too.
>>24675619
Laughing from Europe. I'm always amazed at how basic social security makes consensus everywhere in the world, but not in the richest country. Your corporations and billionaires are way too strong, so strong that they succeed in making you thinking that " if you work hard, you can be just like us ! ", while their money comes from your work.
>>24676424

How does it feel getting c^ucked by millions of mudslimes, Eurofag?
Friendly reminder that non Marxist-Leninist communists are FUCKING BOURGEOIS KEKS

>Spending more money than we have by extreme amounts
>"We need to tax the rich and raise the minimum wage."
He means well but his policies are non-existant. He just says what leftists want to hear without going into detail. Even Trump goes into more detail than Bernie.
Anything that he will actually try to deliver will be rejected anyways, similar to what Obama faced.
>>24676424
Enjoy your brown people

Why are communists/socialists still shilling here?

Sweden is failing/blacked, Norway is rich due to oil, finland and denmark are the size of Massachusetts.
+ these use to be 99% white, socialism can work when the population isnt nigs.
>>24676564
Voting for a social justice president is all fine and dandy if thats what they want but it doesn't change the fact that most of the people in office are still Republicans who reject any bill they dont like because they overwhelm Liberals in numbers because tumblites dont vote for congress and senators and such, allowing Republicans to win every time.
For example - It's obvious that Obama is very anti-gun and wants gun laws in place. Why hasn't he just done it? Because of reasons like up there. He can't JUST do it, it always gets rejected, it's why gay marriage took so long too.
So essentially they're gonna put a 70 year old man in office and he's gonna be eaten by sharks and everyone will turn on him because he's not "delivering promises" when reality is that he can't because nobody's fucking voting for anything else except presidency.
>>24676683
Also he wants to reduce military spending and he's gonna be wimpy as fuck when it comes to foreign nations and so Russia's probably gonna jizz at the chance to take advantage of it.
>>24675521
he's a Zionist who approves of the NATO imperialist adventures in Yugoslavia, Iraq (only 1990 though!!!) Afghanistan, Libya, and now Syria. Economically hes a centrist liberal who calls himself a socialist for no discernible reason.
Socialism aside,
I severely detest his populism. Literally a platform built on appeal to popularity. He offers no real, concrete policies on every topic that matters. More so than any political hack today, he offers nothing but soundbites and hyperbole. Literally, can you think of any well-grounded plans or proposals he's offered?
>D BANKS AH DESTROYING DA COUNTRY
>DA RICH AH GONNA PAY DERE FAIR SHAYUH, AN GONNA MAKE DIS COUNTRY GREAT AGAIN
>DA AMERICAN PEOPLE AH SICK AN' TOIRED A HEARIN BOUTCHA DAMN EMAILS!
The man can't lead. Seriously. A fringe congressman from a rural district has absolutely no qualifications and no business running the most powerful economy and most capable military power on the planet on the principle of folksy charm and bumper-sticker slogans. Everybody thinks that shit gets us another FDR. It also got us retards like Carter and nearly got us ideologues like William Jennings Bryant.
He's got no backbone when it comes to foreign policy, merely running on the principle of "IRAQ 2003 WAS WROOONG" and thinking that qualifies him for dealing with Putin, Baghdadi, and the current clusterfuck of global affairs.
Again, his domestic policy is based on platitude and bullshit. Fuck if I know anything about socialism, I can only say that promising free shit and $15 an hour while claiming the rich are gonna pay for it all isn't gonna fucking work out.
Look, the end of the day is, Bernie Sanders is a Dem Trump. The only reason they exist is to be firebrands that attract die-hards looking for a messiah. They're not leaders. They're not statesmen. They're reactions to a milquetoast middle like Jeb and Hillary. Ask /pol/, and think about whether Trump's Wall and "negotiating skills" is all that different from "EAT DA RICH" and "ITS 2015".
To really sum it up, take a read of Kipling's "Gods of the Copybook Headings". How Bernie and his vision of the Left fall into it should be pretty obvious.

Republicans are Chickenhawks. All of our good wars were led by a democrat
>>24676796
Reagan got fucking lucky that the USSR sperged out and put like 30% of their economy into the military in response to his unsustainable buildup.
he literally said all white people need to apologize to nig nogs for shit that happened years ago
>>24675592
Was this supposed to rhyme?
Minimum wage:
A federal minimum wage of around $9-$11 will generate maximum benefits for the poor. Above that, they will start to face lower employment and be financially worse off. If you want the poor to have more money, just give them more money through welfare/EITC/NIT.
Free trade:
Free trade makes a large majority of people better off, and the amount of extra money they get (or rather, save) is more than the wages lost by people put out of work by foreign competition. If you want to help those workers, just tax the rest of us and give them cash. The taxes will be less than the benefits of trade, so we don't need tariffs or protected industries.
Free education:
I'm conflicted on this, because my gut says education is the kind of thing that should be free. However, my parents are rich and therefore had to pay ~$300,000 to send my sister and I to college. My friend's parents are poor and paid nothing to send her and her brother to college. I think that's already perfectly fair, and all we need to do is adjust the thresholds for need-based financial aid, not abolish tuition completely. Furthermore, the poor kids need more help than just tuition assistance (housing, food, and books can be expensive), so I'd much rather devote resources to that rather than to regular middle class families who just need to learn to save better.
>>24675521
Making things cheaper / free does not create net wealth.
>>24676796
Putin and Bush were bros
pssssttt...Clinton is the nominee. It's all just pageantry. It was over before it even began.
>>24676825
the soviets were convinced reagan was senile and moments away from first strike on moscow and history shows they were right!
>>24676825
Samefag here, the USSR should have sperged out more and just overthrown international capitalism. Destroy China while they were at it.
>>24677024
they didnt because unlike NATO they were fundamentally committed to peace after the horrors the russian people suffered during the second world war.
>>24677093
You mean because Khrushchev was a fucking coward?
>>24677237
whatever you think of his policies i think staring the only country to ever use an atomic weapon in the eye and not stooping to their level is heroism.
He's weak, he panders to weakness and is afraid to actually be proud to be successful, just like every other pandering white c.uckold.
>>24675521
He straight up ignores the whole 20th century and how every single socialist revolution and country ended up as a massive shit hole with dead bodies everywhere.
I agree with him about private prisons. But his praise of single mothers is really what boils me about Bernie, personally.
>>24675831
Cool. Give me your money. You have more than me and I'm in need. Give me all your money.
>>24676595
It's a political ideology that seems really attractive to people who feel the world has hurt them in some way and the answer is force people to give them more free things.
>>24675695
European socialism is literally a ponzi scheme. It's so bad they have to keep funneling third worlders to keep the population from dying off
He got keked by BlackLivesMatter dindus
>>24676683
Exactly. Our country seems incapable of realizing the President is not a King. He doesn't wave his hand and magically do things. He's restricted, very restricted. The Founders intended as such.
The fact we keep giving them more and more power is disturbing and telling. I think some humans, naturally incline towards the Monarch. The souls of their ancestors floating around in their genes are used to the idea of being peasants serving a faraway overlord.
>>24677331
Because you're a bourgie liberal who is glad the USSR got keked because it refused to use its strength.
Iosif Vissarionovich would have known what to do.

/leftypol/fag here.
OP honestly dont listen to these faggots, the real issue with him isnt that hes "socialist" its that he isnt.
Sanders is at best a social democrat and even then is not dialectical enough to even be called that disgrace of a leftist ideology. He wants to give NEETbux to everyone without understandinghow impossible his shit promises are under our current form of government. Hes honestly the worst thing to happen to the left in recent years since hes got Conservatives thinking hes a communist and Liberals thinking hes chairman sanders that will bring national revolution without a single shot fired and without any real revolutionary act.

Oh, stop it you. I thought romance was dead on r9k...

He's a jew and he's weak on Israel at best. Based rand Paul
I just don't like when he brings up Europe as an example of socialism working. they are individual countries with small populations. our country is fucking huge. equating the 2 is pretty disingenuous
>>24675967
>He supported the 2003 invasion of Iraq and the Patriot Act
Are you retarded? His major contrast to HillShill is that he voted against the Iraq war
