I'll tell you what, I'll vote for Sanders as soon as he and all the other democrats can prove they're for 'the common working man" again, and not just their own interests. Because I have a hard time trusting someone who blames the rich and the banks for our problems, but then guts the bill that would audit the FED.
One of his policy platforms is to audit the Fed and the DoD.
How about you get informed instead of being another narrow minded fool who makes judgements without researching?
You can start by seeing what Sanders has done for the working man in Vermont as a Senator. He's not a Dem. He's an Independent. He's joined the Dems to win the White House to actually try repairing the country. You're so blinded by the colour blue you can't see past your own ego. So, for the good of your kids, spend one hour watching speeches from Sanders (YouTube. Look at speeches from BEFORE the campaign so you can see what he's about. Start with him attacking Bernanke, that's a doozy.) and one hour looking at speeches from Trump and decide for yourself who is the better representative for the country.

I already did those things you suggested and made up my mind a long time ago, otherwise I wouldn't even be having this conversation. If anything I'm blinded by my extreme dissatisfaction with the existing establishment. You seem so blinded for your love of this man that you fail to see the possible dangers of his policies. Sanders is not fit for president, he panders to everyone to try to secure their votes but does not actually care for the people themselves, which you have obviously fallen for. I have seen this with so many presidential candidates before, I refuse to let another person pull the wool over America's eyes like so many have before. After all, I made the great mistake of falling for it too in 2008. I thought our current Commander in Chief was against the establishment, but just ended up selling out to it and look where that has gotten us. You think Sanders is immune to that? Think again, everyone has a price. The only presidential who seems to be immune to that is Trump, he's already fucking loaded and seems to take great pride in refusing PAC donations and high value donors while self funding his campaign. And before you say it. Of course Trump isn't all that great either, he's a blowhard that is saying what everyone wants to hear, a true populist. I'm simply looking at who will fuck things up the least, It is a sad choice to have to make it the first place, but in this day and age it's the best i can do to delay what seems like the inevitable. This system can't sustain itself for much longer, and putting more pressure on it is not the answer.
