Here's an article that not just speaks of the differences between Sanders and Warren, but gives a description of Bernie's movement that shows it goes beyond the man and his current campaign.

Serious question, edgar. Do you have any means of identifying that this (or any other) tweeter is actually a legitimate US citizen and not a bot or foreign troll?

How do I know you're not a grown up Cabbage Patch kid? I didn't pay one of those online services to do a background check.

This guy's memories from his past are pretty real to me.

@blatham,

You post on US politics all the time, you are not a legitimate US citizen, why is your opinion more important than another non-citizen? Talk about foreign interference...

PDiddie (on Clinton/Gabbard): It's just a scam for people to buy her book. But if you'd like to go see her tonight at U of H and maybe ask her, tickets are $38.

Okay, Comrade, let's talk about foreign interference. Here's someone who's been on this message board since 2002, has never attempted to mask his identity, and provides informative links and citations to back up his opinion — how do you construe that as "interference"?

He still has the spurs from when he lived in Texas.

@hightor,

He's not an American and he tries to interfere with our politics, that's the definition of foreign interference. You don't see it that way because he supports your political views. Wouldn't non-Americans trying to influence American politics be considered as such?

@Baldimo,

Um, how is posting original content and sourced articles on a message board "interfering" with our political process? If it prompts discussion about current issues that we can discuss freely it bolsters one of the salient features of our democracy — free speech.

You don't complain about the Russian meddling — which really is attempted interference — because it supports your political views. So transparent...

@blatham,

Watch this space for what Lash does! What will Lash do? I’ going to predict what Lash might do in numerical order. By the way, I think Lash is a Russian or a GOP plant. Maybe a ficus, I’m not sure. I’ll be back to talk more about Lash.

Watch this space to see how Lash will respond to either possibility. If it's 1) above, then, I fully expect, Lash will find her decision principled and hopeful even if opponent Sanders is slimed. If it's 2), Lash will find her decision and appearances on Fox sliming Dems as principled and hopeful.

You’re deep in stalker territory. Get your own life.

That isn't what takes place though. There is no discussion unless it's between him and the people he agree's with. He actively encourages other members to block people and ignore them, simply because they disagree with his posts. So much for "discussions" and "free speech", it's a scam.

I have mentioned this before, but it gets ignored because the BS discussion would shift towards Trump and Russian collusion, which was proven to be a lie. Doesn't stop people like B from spreading the lies.

First thing, that's not true. He's had many conversations with georgeob, McGentrix, and Finn, among others. Second, even if he did only talk to people he agrees with that doesn't prevent you from criticizing his arguments or discussing other issues with people you agree with. I've never seen him encourage anyone to "block" another member — what does that even mean? And encouraging people to ignore posters whose only purpose on this board is to "own the libtards" is hardly "interference". It has nothing to do with anyone disagreeing with his posts.

Explain how it's a "scam". Are you so unsophisticated that you lost money on a freaking message board?

No, it was shown to have occurred. It just didn't rise to the level of an illegal conspiracy. "Russia — if you're listening..."

Russia meddled. Trump told them to and they did. They didn't have to have secret conspiratorial discussions the definition of colluding, to actually do it. All he had to do was ask very publicly to get their help.

Really? Here for three years we have heard Trump is Putin's bitch. In reality he gives Russia orders? Your narrative needs adjusting.
