He would have been good in the same way Chavez was good for Venezuela. Too bad he doesn't actually believe anything he says. He's standing up for the 99% by endorsing someone in bed with 1%.
The First Lady speech was very impressive. Credit where it's due. She hit a home run. People I watched with were highly impressed. My wife is a conservative southern girl and she was moved by her speech.
Some of you just don't think. What was he supposed to do? Sometimes you have to look past a less favorable outcome, swallow your pride (no matter how wrong the other party is) in favor of avoiding catastrophic consequences. Trump can't be elected, had Bernie staged something, I would then believe that he truly just cared about himself.
This is actually sad. Republicans trying to get their constituents to make fun of the Democrats building political coalitions, when that is in fact what Republicans need to learn to do -- as seen once again by allowing Trump to win their Party. Complete, utter inability to build coalitions anymore, is why the Republicans keep losing the Presidency...and here they are trying to laugh at the Dem's ability to do that with Bernie's full endorsement of Clinton.
At the beginning when she started with something like "I told you about our values" or something like that I thought she was going to crack a joke. But good for her for staying classy
Trump was right. All that energy and money are wasted for nothing. Now Bernie is endorsing Hillary who is only interested in two things her whole life: power and money from foreign government, Corp American and Wall street. LOL.

What's crazy is that the Democrats set up the first night to be the progressive night. Yet, it was more patriotic and highlighted the greatness of this nation more on this one night than the GOP convention did their whole week. To me Booker's speech was absolutely spot-on. It showed the best of what this nation has to offer, and the beauty of this country and what it's about. The GOP didn't capture that on even their final evening of their convention. What a contrast.
Well, yeah....I mean they are selling vastly different things. The Republicans have to sell that things are heading the wrong way and the country needs change, the Democrats need to sell that everything is awesome after 8 years of Obama and we need 4 more years of that. It was the exact opposite of what Obama was selling when he was running the first time.
At least we were going through a recession when Obama was running. I still can't see myself voting for Clinton though. Elections will get more rigged and things will get more corrupt.
How many of these guys are supporting or endorsing Trump? They might have some insight on what it takes to be president.
Yeah I wasn't saying if things were right or wrong, really just pointing out that obvious that when you are running against the incumbent party, you have to run down the state of the nation and if you are running as the incumbent party you basically have to play up how awesome things are. You won't get an accurate portrayal of how things actually are from either of them.
Listen to Booker's speech again. I don't think it talked about how great things are, but about how America has what it takes to make it better.
