Bernie obviously is the closest thing to that. Trump is only providing window dressing of all of a sudden trying to "shake up the establishment" yet when he enters office its nothing but shady deals, cutting taxes on the wealthy and making executive decisions to get him and his billionaire buddies even richer.


Just odd people thinking there truly going to get any change with a shady billionaire. People believe the rhetoric so easily

Well either we put a business man in the capitalist big chair or we hire a socialist to change our values. Either way, somethings got to change. We can accept the FACT that our nation revolves around money, or accept the FACT that capitalism has failed people regarding the middle class, healthcare and education.

Bernie is as establishment as the rest of them. You just like Bernie because he is the poorest of the candidates... that doesn't mean he relates to you any more than the rest of them though

Someone needs to educate themselves on the difference between wealth, and income.

The higher the tax rate, the wealthier the rich become because they shelter their money in wealth, which is TAX FREE.

Warren Buffet has made about $10 billion or more since Obama was sworn into office.

Want him to get richer, support Bernie..

Because WHY would a billionaire spend millions and millions of dollars on a job that pays 300-400 grand a year if there isn't some ulterior motive?

Answer: To implement crap to make his fortune rise even more

Trump is at least openly who he says he is. So is Sanders. Hillary pretends to be someone she isn't and sneers at those who call her on it or those who she thinks are stupid enough to believe her. The OP seems to admit that Hillary is the establishment candidate and a liar to boot. That's some supporter.

Do you really believe you are getting anything "different" with Trump when its all said and done??
I think he cares more about the country than Hillary.
