Nothing is Free. Not college nor anything else. It costs money to pay teachers, heat the buildings, turn the lights on etc.


So WHO will be paying for this college education? TAX PAYERS! Sure this is a GREAT IDEA for a country 20 trillion dollars in debt. << sarcasm.


Truly if you believe this is a good idea you need to come down from cloud 9 and meet me back in reality.


I have no desire to pay for someone's dream to become a male ballet dancer. BRO.

That's ALL on you to pay for.

Give me a freaking break. Can't believe people take Bernie Sanders serious at all.


But seeing what kind of mess our country is in, it shouldn't surprise me in the slightest.


Come down off of cloud 9. We can talk when you reach reality.
How much are you paying for the wars or like the rest, are you putting off paying for them to your children?

If you say Bernie would have done better, you're saying the Democrats didn't try hard enough.

If y'all would have voted like y'all run your moufs, maybe this is true.
They didn't try hard enough. They took a ton of things for granted. Pennsylvania and Michigan for two.

Bernie with a centrist VP like Kaine would have beaten Trump in a landslide. Hillary didnt campaign in WI, and MI until the last minute. And thats what broke the blue wall.

I don't know about that-Clinton visited Pennsylvania 11 times since the Democratic Convention, which was also in Philly, had her huge rally the night before the election in Philly with the Obamas, and she still lost to Trump.

She was the absolute worst candidate to put up this year-what she symbolizes but also timing wise with her investigations, etc.-and the DNC thought they could scare voters into supporting her by hoping her opponent would be the biggest "joke" and "threat" of a candidate they could imagine. The joke is on them.

It just shows how completely out of touch the major political parties and corporate media are-Hillary was rejected for Obama in 2008-and Obama lost a huge chunk of his coalition since then because he did not deliver on the change his supporters were clamoring for-namely ending wars and reigning in financial corruption.

The DNC/Clinton campaign thought voters would go crazy and be energized again for another First--Insert Demographic--President. They failed to realize that Obama did not energize voters just because of his demographic, but because of his message and what he was promising/represented. Bernie Sanders and Trump represented "change". Hillary represented the complete opposite.

Wisconsin hasn't voted for a Republican President since 1984. Pennsylvania hasn't voted for a Republican President since 1988.
That right there just shows how awful the DNC candidate must have been.
