Looks like to win the nomination in 2020 they have to elect a big government socialist.

It's going to be a competition to see who be the most socialistic Democrat who promise the most cash, prizes and goodies with taxpayer money and deficit spending.

She went on for a very long time about her friend Libby Schaff who likes to tip off criminals to pending raids.

She also promised lots of socialist goodies: Free pre-K baby-sitting services, Debt-Free college which means it would be free, Medicare for all and $500 a month to families to make ends meet.

If she pushes this, this will be a recipe for another government shutdown. This will bankrupt the country and do more damage than any shutdown will. If she pushes this I would support an INDEFINITE shutdown to prevent these policies from being funded, even lasting over a year.

Things like this is why Venezuela and Greece are in the dire straits they're in today.

Guess what, healthcare is already bankrupting this country. Since the GOP is offering zero solutions, I suggest we listen to the Democratic nominees.

I don't understand how a presidential candidate can make those kinds of promises. The bills for these things wouldn't even make it through congress.

Over ruled !!! Sit down and listen !!! Democrats are selling a fantasy.

The GOP needs to do something so you are right about that but a fantasy won't work for them either.

If the Dems get power we are on our way to $100 per roll for toilet paper.

The good news is the Dems want to help everyone. I'm sure they mean it.

They will lend me a hand so I won't need toilet paper.

Funny how when it comes to social programs, it's "We don't have the money."

But when it comes to war in the Middle East, no right-winger ever asked, "Hey, can we afford this?"

You mean like getting us involved in a civil war in Syria, or using bombers and drone strikes to collapse the government of Libya.
Funny, I wasn't aware that Obama and Hitlery were right wing.
