Are you supporting Bernie's positions more or Hillary's more? If going by electability, the latest poll shows Sanders leading Cruz by 19% in the important swing state NH, while Hillary is losing by 4% to Cruz.
The "strongest candidate" is losing to Ted Cruz in NH!!! Similar numbers regarding Trump.
People need to realize that Sanders is the strongest candidate as he has so much more cross-party appeal than Hillary and Hillary is unable to create the type of excitement that Bernie is getting which brings more people who previously didnt vote out to vote. People who support the policies of Bernie should not feel the need to pick Hillary even if they dont want to because of "electability".
Not surprisingly, Mike, all the betting markets currently have Hillary as the STRONG FAVORITE to win the presidency...
LONGSHOT Sanders is running WELL BEHIND Donnie Hot-Head and Marco The Puppet.
These odds are generated by people betting REAL MONEY on the outcome of the contest ... not by a bunch of clowns popping off on an internet message board ... or to some pollster.
PLEASE abandon your little fantasy, Bernie cheerleaders.
We simply CANNOT AFFORD republican INCOMPETENCE in the White House...
Those are the same nations that allow immigrant men to gang rape native women and then tell the victims they should've dressed more modest and not gone out allow after sundown. I'll pass.
Gang rapes happen in the US as well, we aren't special.
And why can't poor kids take loans or work hard and get academic scholarships? Sounds like sour grapes to me? I wasn't from a rich family and I did not ask for my college tuition to be paid for by everyone else..
Why can't Wall Street absorb their losses and or go out of business like everyone else has.to?
Cause right now it's socialism for the rich and "capitalism" for the rest of us. If you think the GOP and the republicans are for truly free market economy then you are in for a big surprise. The current system is a form of socialistic-capitalism...where the state and corporations collude to make big bucks while shafting the rest of us.
I don't agree with giving huge power to govt either...I think a libertarian-socialist view is probably a good combination of both. Note in this context "socialism" means democratic control of things at the local levels and NOT a centralized/planned economy
It should have. The administration has said many times they were winding it down but yet it is still buying up loans. I'm sure many of them bad loans.
Of course they are.

Why did the Federal Reserve buy them in the first place? Because taxpayers were on the hook for that $2 Trillion, anyway. They were GSE-guaranteed MBS.
The REAL question is why did the GSEs lower their lending standards so much that they bought no/low down payment loans made to unqualified buyers?

That weren't changed and continued to get worse under Bush.
