yup. they think Obama should have accomplished his entire agenda in two years. meanwhile, the cheeto has yet to accomplish any of his agenda other than screwing most of the country with the tax plan.

I wonder what's stopping him? he has a super majority!

still waiting for that big, beautiful healthcare plan that will cover everyone and be cheaper.

As for your point about capitalism, in my definition of the term every country on earth right now have some form of capitalism (state-run, free market, or mixed capitalism).
That’s because capitalism is wildly successful. It has brought more people out of poverty than any other time in human history.

I agree with him. The Dems deserve the criticism.

For instance, completely overlooking middle America states, and then actually wondering why they always end up red in elections.

I'm not a Bernie supporter (I'm an anarcho-syndicalist, not a state-run capitalist), but what is up with this cult of Obama in the democrat party?

MLK spent the rest of his years AFTER 1964 critiquing foreign policy and and the economic system as the root of all injustices.

Frankly Obama was a pretty unimaginative leader who continued the neo-liberal imperial policies of past presidents, why is he so great?
Your thread title is very misleading.

hmm, yeah, I checked it out. I see no reference of him saying "cult of Obama in the democrat party"

it doesn't look like he's "angered dems"

i'm not even sure if i'd qualify this as an "attack", it reads more like criticism.

I don’t think he attacked him either. That just how some dems took it and have called him out on it.

Bernie Sanders angers dems by attacking Obama
The article says he criticized Dems, not Obama.

Bernie is Independent. Just FYI. He can attack anyone he wants. He was pretty heavy handed with Hillary for example.

The title of the article is:
Bernie Sounds Off on the 'Failure' That Is the Democratic Party


The only mention of Obama is:
"...Sanders asked his audience to ignore the White House successes the Democrats had in 2008 and 2012, because Obama was a uniquely "extraordinary candidate" and "brilliant man." Obama's wins aside, the reality, Sanders noted, is that over the last 10 years Democrats have lost about 1,000 seats in state legislatures all across the country."


So, exactly how is this attacking Obama? (BTW: "criticism" is not attacking)


Bernie is absolutely right. By ignoring the red states, they blew 2016 big time.

I'm a radical centrist and Obama was nothing but a slave of the globalists. Created by them, owned by them, put where he was by them, did only what they told him to do. Bernie is a corrupt old spineless wimp who wouldn't do anything if he didn't get $$$ for doing it.
Fools would follow either of them.
