They both also make sweeping statements that are void of actual facts and then pretend that they are actually true.

She is from NYC, so she's won the seat pretty much. As for being the future of the Democrats, well the inverse worked for the Republican party with the TEA party and Trump.

If this is not satire, it is saddening.

It might be just progress. Why we don't have Medicare for all is simply what we should have.

Boston University should rescind her degree. Shallow thinker.

Free is never free . It means someone else paid for it . Also I find people don’t value free stuff much .
Free college and you’ll see drop out rates even higher than they are , because people don’t have “skin in the game “ as they say .

We have "skin in the game" and we are shackled up in debt causing many millenials to put off house buying and child births. That and the wages aren't THAT good. The point is, having "skin in the game" isn't that much better to the free college option.

I think a fear of high dropout rates is odd. Even should it not work out, it's not for nothing to get the experience of pursuing a better education.

The more I read many of the comments around here, the more I wish people would make the attempt...

Nowhere did I say the GOP candidate can win. I simply used that to show that a very small number of voters from the district showed up to vote in the primary a few weeks back.

I'm just saying that the more she talks the more some Dem voters may look for another line to check in November.
