I'm not going to disagree with this, but I urge you to remember that the name of the game is for ordinary Americans to have a better standard of living in four years time. If this is the case that's fine for you and other Trump supporters, if not Trump won't be able to hide behind Obama. If you agree that Trump is good for not just some but all Americans than I respect your opinion.

Bernie made quite an impression on me during his filibuster in 2010.

It was an actual filibuster by a true Statesman, not some idiotic crap such as turds like Ted Cruz offer up.

I have to admit I didn't pay attention to other potential candidates. All I was hearing was Hillary, Hillary, Hillary. I even remember reading something the previous year about how unlike 8 years ago there wouldn't be another Obama. Ya there wasn't another Obama but there should have been a Sanders.
