Thatā€™s the one you meant though right?

The POC-Centrist rabbit hole is deep. Only relatively recently did I discover how much so.

I think we can deduce from these results that Pete is literally four times more popular than Bernie and should win Iowa easily

Is the question why these two things are not equivalent?

A. Selling out previously stated progressive values to become a corporate attack dog against M4A and the right to health care for all Americans in a freaking WINE CAVE with Billionaires who made their profit off privatized health care.

And

B. Not compromising one inch on any of the progressive values heā€™s established over a lifetime of fighting, and welcoming disaffected voters to join his movement on the quality of those progressive values and the authenticity of his arguments for them.

Using the word ā€œappealā€ for both of these is a dubious comparison. One is taking money and compromising on values, going wherever the highest bid takes him. The other is holding firm on his values and appealing through authenticity, consistency of track record, and convincing people on the quality of those ideas and values.

(I got baited didnā€™t I?)

I mean Iā€™m not sure how the two thread thing is supposed to work. Like we post a piece of news, but the inevitable petty discussions around each piece of news take place in a different thread? Seems like the old one was fine.

Iā€™m looking at it like if you attack a candidate itt on policy then itā€™s allowedā€¦

Personal attacks can be for the other threadā€¦ I hope :thinking:

What could go wrong?

Should I recognize more than a handful of those names?

I count at least 6 state/county level Maryland elected officials in the credentials committee, which seems pretty weird. What do these people do?

There being Trumpers on 2p2 kept the Bernie v Hillary war from doing this.

Sounds like someone needs an edgelord badge.

The man said he was open to a black female VP so I guess itā€™s audition time.

Yeah, sheā€™s phony as fuck and so is he. Endorsement makes sense.
