Ok Bernie come on we all know Joe Biden said if Medicare for all came across his desk he would veto it. You need to walk the walk instead of just talking the talk in terms of your “hearings”. We’re going to start #forcetheprimary2024 with or without you Bernie
Young people will be the ones mainly paying for it!! His 17 trillion cost for Medicare is way off, and many believe it will be 30 Trillion. Saunders believes this will be paid for largely by the part-nationalisation of the US energy industry, and from tax increases on the fossil fuel industry and other large corporations. If you don’t believe those costs won’t be passed onto workers and consumers your quite frankly..an imbecile!! He will also be reducing unemployment benefit to pay for this. But that’s ok, he believes his plans will also add 20 million new “green” jobs!!!
You will never get this voted in. Why? Medicare pays less than insurance companies and doctors in Sweden and Germany make about half of a US doctor. So how will a hospital continue to run when insurance companies pay 1.6 to 2.5 times more than the government? A hospitals operating cost won't go down unless labor is cut. What's the plan?

Go Bernie! I'm a dual US/Australian citizen and I moved back to Australia because, as a freelancer, I could not afford health care insurance in the US. Here I don't have to worry. It's all free. No copays, no premiums. Nothing. You just show your Medicare card when you first see a doctor, and after that, zip. Just walk in, walk out. Hospitals the same. If you want to have a private doctor, you can, and the government pays about 80% of the fee. Nobody, but nobody, goes bankrupt because of medical bills. And our taxes are lower here too because there is less burden on the state.
Aus is fucked if you have more severe disabilities or chronic illness or mental health challenges. When seeing specialists, medication and getting treatment it costs me annually $2k-$2.5k. However in the US it could easily be 4times that and above! They overcharge medications, hospital visits, specialists etc

It should’ve been you Bernie. You are the only one who truly cares about not just every American, but everyone on this planet. You’re a great man who has stayed consistent in your beliefs for 40 plus years. I am proud to have had the opportunity to meet you and vote for you.

If I were Bernie I would retire and spend whatever time I have left with my family because of all of the ingrates out there! NOT talking about you but all the hateful ones towards him because he can't pass bills by his self because of all those that expect him to be perfect when no one is but he sure is a heck of a lot more perfect than the rest of the politicians!
@@wvu05 What part of my comment has to do with Bernie having an ego? I know he doesn't have that. I don't think someone has to have an ego to not want to be hated when they have done as much for people as he has! And it's out of my caring about him why I don't like the way he's treated especially by some so called progressives. He has spent decades caring for people even those that didn't appreciate it. Nothing wrong with someone wanting him to spend whatever time he has left with his family surrounded by love instead of hate and nothing wrong if he should decide to do that it wouldn't have anything to do with ego.
As a European the healthcare system of the US seems so draconian. I would never move to the US just because of this. You're the richest country on earth, there's zero reasons not to have medicare for all or something very similar to it.
I don't know what we're going to do without you. You've been pushing for the same basic rights since photos were in black and white, thank you for all of your dedicated service!
So glad you noted "since photos were in black and white." An IL native, 83 now, I saw one of those in a Chicago newspaper in 1963. It introduced me to Sanders. He was 21. There was a policeman "helping" him to the ground for marching against segregation when he was a poli sci undergrad at the U. of Chicago. Later that month he helped organize a busload to DC for MLK's historic "March for Jobs and Freedom" and his memorable "I Have a Dream" speech. The You Tube video, "Bernie Sanders and Civil Rights in Chicago" much impressed. From the beginning, Bernie has worked--so hard and so smart--on the major issues facing our nation, including civil, economic, environmental, gender, racial and social justice....and for peace. Humble and modest, he's been awarded two honorary degrees. Earned the highest national honors from two of our largest veterans' organizations, the American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars. Written two major books: "Our Revolution" in 2016, #3 on the New York Times Best-Seller list, and "Where We Go from Here: Two Years in the Resistance," 2018. Called "the Energizer Bunny" for good reason, Bernie should be in his 2nd term as our president--but both runs (2016 and 2020) were clearly sabotaged. I don't think we'd let that happen again. He's given our nation so much already as a true public servant: re-elected mayor, re-elected U.S. Rep and now in his 3rd term as U.S. Senator--winning #2 with 71% of the vote. One personal mantra has served him well in every arena: "NotMeUs." Thank you for everything, Bernie.
When Bernie says, 'Together it is a struggle we will win.' -- he means everyone that wants #M4A . WE MUST call our state representatives & call our federal senators & congressional reps & tell them we will vote for them if they support #MedicareForAll. If you've been a support of Bernie in '16 or '20, or just support his effort to get us #M4A - then do your part. Organize a postcard writing campaign to your state reps & your state's Fed Senators & Congressional reps. Write a letter to all the local papers in your area 'touting the benefits of #M4A. Oh & VOTE OUT EVERY REPUBLICAN from every single seat!
Thank you Bernie for all you have always done and continue to do for all people in our country! Your kind heart is appreciated and loved by so many- - all over the world and, especially by me!! Robin 🤗🙋🏻♀️🥰🌺
Watching Bernie here you think of him as President. You realize he could be halfway through his second term if things were allowed to play out as they should have. He looks presidential.
Yeah but he sold out to the DNC and the Democrat elite!Sanders and the swamp sold everyone out Obamacare took the Congress federal government healthcare from him because their healthcare is the best.They went around the system and got it back .He is lying when he says that everyone deserve the best hc regardless of their income but the fraud Bernie deserves IT MORE Then you .
That's stupid, I supported Bernie in the primaries and didn't vote for Biden or Trump, if it wasn't for Bernie millions of people wouldn't know Medicare 4 all was a common thing in other countries
It's ironic.... Poland is providing free health care to the Ukrainian refugees who have flooded into their country. Somehow Poland can manage this, and yet here in the richest country in the world people go without healthcare unless they can pay for it. There's something not quite right about that ... Americans, it's time we stood up and said enough is enough. Healthcare is a human right, not a privilege. Poland understands that.
I also still think often about that night. Iowa, New Hampshire and Nevada had been three strong wins in a row with South Carolina up next. Clyburn had at least been publicly, neutral. The Sanders campaign--staff and volunteers--had been working long, strong and smart in S.C. Then, the DNC reared out of neutral and sent in Buttigieg, Obama, Warren...and Clyburn...to prevent a Sanders sweep, which had certainly been a possibility, especially with Biden faltering. Buttigieg got a major reward, the Transportation post. Clyburn, something, too. I was surprised at Elizabeth Warren's participation. Still, in December 2017, Bernie and she would write an op-ed piece for the New York Times in joint support of strong childcare funding in the Appropriations bill. Then, for a unique town hall in the Capitol Visitor Center the following March, he included her on a high level six-member panel about the high level of poverty and the income and wealth inequality in our country. He simply does not hold grudges. That a former president got involved at a primary level had probably bothered me the most.
We all need this Medicare for all united we love each other and can demand this from our govt officials they have it no one should go bankrupt due to health problems
So hard to watch my asmatic granddaughter struggle to breath. She cannot afford her rescue inhaler. They cost almost 300$ ever with GoodRx and I cannot afford to help her. Painful situation for her and painfull situation for me too.
@@davebrown3117 I wish that were funny--oh, wait --it IS!--just not funny in the US of A. Because, THERE, it's just obscenely expensive. GOD Bless Merica!
It's Symbicort and can be as much as 400$. I need it also but not as badly as my granddaughter. Health care and pharmaceuticals here are off the charts. Real Estate is out of control, grocery prices have been climbing since the beginning of covid and gas prices are also out of control. No clue how the working men and women are going to make it.
Thank you Bernie!!! I am one of the young people that is being screwed left and right with medical bills. THANK YOU. THANK YOU for standing up and fighting back!!!
We need Medicare For All here in the U.S., especially during this time with the Coronavirus pandemic! What's more "pro-life" than ensuring that every person living here has guaranteed affordable healthcare regardless of their job? If we all had access to basic healthcare, we would have the "freedom" to live long lives and rarely have to worry about medical bankruptcies. Taxes will go up, but the overall costs will go down. If some of us need additional healthcare than Medicare, then we have the "choice" to get additional insurance. If every other developed country (Canada, Germany, U.K., France, Italy, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Switzerland, Taiwan, Japan, S.K., H.K., Singapore, Australia, and N.Z.) can implement this system and save money, then why can't we do the same and help "Make America Great Again" for everybody at least on the issue of healthcare? If American citizens die from lacking access to affordable health insurance then we are failing our country's promise of defending "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" for its citizens as well as "promoting the general welfare" of everyone living here.
Face it,this great man might as well be talking to a wall,Americans don't care about each other ,it's dog eat dog , progressives work to elect people who will fight for programs like this only to be sabotaged by centrist Democrats like Joe Manchin and the blonde bimbo from AZ.This Democratic party is the left wing of the GOP ,they will never fight for the needs of the middle class or poor
@@danwalton2698 : Let me start by saying I essentially fully agree with you. But feel the need to clear up some terms, because I see how misusing terms has weakened public perceptions of many things, and that's absolutely by design. _The Southern Strategy_ (basically the beginning of the mass of racist dog whistles) is a good example to read about. So _"left wing of the GOP"_ You sort of get it, but socialists are left-wing, and capitalists are right-wing. That's it. The liberal/authoritarian axis and the progressive/conservative/regressive axis are not the same things. Most democrats by far are capitalists, making the democrat party the center-right-wing, whereas the republicans are the extreme-right-wing, with independents who see themselves as "in between" the two parties are the far-right-wing. There has never been a major party for the left in the U.S. Only during the great depression did the left gain much power at all. This is exactly why our government is failing The People. Manchinenema are not centrists, they are far-right-wing capitalists at best, and I assert they are fascist simps, like anyone who so obviously supports the republicans now (and the republicans are indeed fascists, feel free to fact check me and read _The Fourteen Characteristics of Fascism)._ As far as Americans not caring about each other: here are some actual numbers to consider: in 2020 at their most numerous ever, the republicans represented less than 30% of the U.S. (74 million out of 255 million). On Jan 6th 2021, many thousands of republicans immediately left the party, officially. By the summer of 2021 we found out that only about 2/3 of what was left of the republican party still wanted the orange fascist as president. That comes out to less than 20% of the country, giving them the full benefit of the doubt, not even including the many thousands who left the party after J6. That is less than 1 in 5 Americans. Yes that's really bad, and certainly a danger to democracy that we have so many fascists, but it's nowhere near what center-right-wing corporate media like CNN, and extreme-right-wing fascist media like Fox makes it out to be. For many decades (centuries and even millennia really, if one goes back before there was a U.S.), We The People have been lied to about what these terms even mean. The greatest lie ever told is a perfect example.. Here is a riddle: _can you name even one country in known history that has ever been classless, moneyless, or stateless? Let alone all three at once._ Because that is the very definition of Communism. The actual fact is that *no* Communist country has ever existed in known history. Yet most of the people on the planet still believe this absurdly blatant lie. I did for half my life too, until I actually read the source material and the lies immediately became evident. So I'm not berating you or anyone else for believing any of these lies, we were *all* indoctrinated as children. I simply strive to lay bare at least the most obvious of these lies. As for leftists in our government: there aren't any (to our great detriment). Although people like Bernie and AOC are likely left-wing at heart, neither of them openly expresses nor pushes for anything more than centrism; a mixture of socialism and capitalism like what the U.S. had more of before 1981 when the reagan administration began paving the road to fascism in America, starting with trickledown. I wish you and all my fellow Earthlings peace and prosperity. ^-^ We can all have it too, all that stands in our way is bigotry: the great divider. That is all that has allowed one or a few people to so completely dominate and control hundreds, thousands, and even millions of times their number, for thousands of years now. When we humans finally rid ourselves of bigotry, we will all stand in solidarity and take back both the peace and the prosperity that has been stolen from all of humanity. ❤🌍🌎🌏 Note: You may already know some, or most of this. In particular I post knowing others can read this too, others that likely need to far more than someone like you who is obviously both intelligent and wise. I do not mean be presumptive beyond addressing what you've posted in the comment I'm replying to. My apologies if it even seems so. I do tend to post walls of texts. lols There are a whole lot of lies and distractions We The People need to debunk if we are to progress beyond what the majority of democrats are trying to conserve (because they are mostly conservatives), and what the majority of republicans are trying to regress back to (because they are mostly regressives, not conservatives: _make America great *again)*._
@Jesse Torres : I don't often see your comments as much as I used to, but it's always a good thing when I do. People like you, TheMargieP, and Dan Walton here all give me more hope for a better future for us all. To each of you I say: Keep Being You !! 🙂🌻
Thank you Bernie for your continued efforts for our people. You are an American hero who continues to give hope to our conutry. I support you with all my heart and mind and believe that you would have been the most beloved and successful president since FDR. Please revive your massive grassroots movement to rebuild the momentum that was growing so successfully. I am 4 years older than you (also from Brooklyn) and pledge to attend every rally that you would hold to help rebuild the America you and I love so dearly. Bernie, the country needs you to set the example of how governments can love it's people instead of opressing them for the benefit of the oligarchs. We can't give up.
So Right...on both points! Actually, to me, he seems 20 years younger than his age right now. Of course, I'm 83, which might influence my opinion of Bernie a tad. Particularly quick of mind, with a lifetime of knowledge and commitment to All of Us, he also has the continuing stamina of a far...far...younger man. Could that stem in part from being a competitive long-distance runner in high school in the Bronx? Or, perhaps because he also managed to graduate from the highly regarded...challenging...University of Chicago, while also a student activist--member of CORE (the Congress on Racial Equality) and SNCC (the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee...sprung from an overnight in jail by the NAACP. You're in good company with your call for Bernie to run for POTUS again. I've read that many times over many months as a volunteer poster trying to keep the record straight about Bernie...and also perhaps help educate new recruits. It's great that more than one poster has noted some version of "Third Times a Charm" when urging him to run for President again. I don't know yet what I think about that road yet, not that what I think matters at all. It's just that he was specifically thwarted by the DNC, and it seemed to me and thousands of others that "the elite" didn't play fair, either time. Evenso, in 2016, starting at about 3% as a relative unknown from a very small state, he won 22 states and over 3 million votes. Still, in 2020, even with the especially huge and enthusiastic rallies and long Election Day lines, not enough votes were tallied for him then either. The opportunities seemed there: 1) early voting, 2) voting by mail, usually well publicized Election Days. I'll never understand it, altho' I'll always believe he somehow didn't get reasonable media coverage, for whatever reason.
Those he's mentored get attacked by both right-wing and left-wing media whether indy or corporate. The entire power structure hates the Squad and especially AOC.
thank you bernie for representing us and not corporate interests. please run for president again, as you are our last hope for a rational society. at this point if we don't start behaving rationally survival itself is in question. please run again, as the majority of americans support you, even if the dnc does not
I'm glad to hear someone voice our concerns. I have Medicaid but few , if any psychiatrists will take it. I desperately need help for depression & anxiety. But Am falling through the cracks. Low quality care is what people w/ mental health issues are getting.
And he's still pushing for M4A all these years later. God bless you Bernie, if only all elected leaders had your integrity, we'd be the best country on earth. ❤
❤️❤️Thank you for all you do, Senator! There are so many of us who appreciate your fight, which should be ALL our fight! My idea is that since we have a need for more doctors, nurses and other college educated healthcare workers and those that teach them, I propose that anyone going. Into these fields of study get a free education with no student debt! These are our frontline workers today and throughout this pandemic. What would we do without them? Let's give them less stress in their overworked lives. Thank you again, Bernie! ❤️

@@JustMe-ec2ph EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! America is a selfish greedy hateful nation
I will always vote for Bernie if he is on my ballot.
@@JustMe-ec2ph And that is why you're not Bernie. He isn't guided by ego, but by trying to make the world a better place.
@@wvu05 What part of my comment has to do with Bernie having an ego? I know he doesn't have that.
I don't think someone has to have an ego to not want to be hated when they have done as much for people as he has!
And it's out of my caring about him why I don't like the way he's treated especially by some so called progressives.
He has spent decades caring for people even those that didn't appreciate it.
Nothing wrong with someone wanting him to spend whatever time he has left with his family surrounded by love instead of hate and nothing wrong if he should decide to do that it wouldn't have anything to do with ego.
Still feel the Bern. Solidarity

Honesty Bernie I hope you've got a 3rd run at President left in you. We've needed someone like you in The White House since FDR.
Agreed!
I hope so
There’s nobody else. He’s our guy.
I wrote in Bernie too
Yes 3rd party. Freedom party. Can’t let Obama choose the nominee again. Trump is going to win if the Dems don’t totally get their shit together
Our Outlook is so bleak, Bernie. I wish you were our president
Thank you for always fighting so hard for us!
This country would be totally different if you Bernie were the president!
Yeah we would be in the shitter

As a European the healthcare system of the US seems so draconian. I would never move to the US just because of this. You're the richest country on earth, there's zero reasons not to have medicare for all or something very similar to it.
If Bernie could actually put out a plan that he could explain how to pay for it might actually pass
I don't know what we're going to do without you. You've been pushing for the same basic rights since photos were in black and white, thank you for all of your dedicated service!
yep.
John Lewis is only a good guy in black and white.
So glad you noted "since photos were in black and white." An IL native, 83 now, I saw one of those in a Chicago newspaper in 1963. It introduced me to Sanders. He was 21. There was a policeman "helping" him to the ground for marching against segregation when he was a poli sci undergrad at the U. of Chicago. Later that month he helped organize a busload to DC for MLK's historic "March for Jobs and Freedom" and his memorable "I Have a Dream" speech. The You Tube video, "Bernie Sanders and Civil Rights in Chicago" much impressed.
From the beginning, Bernie has worked--so hard and so smart--on the major issues facing our nation, including civil, economic, environmental, gender, racial and social justice....and for peace. Humble and modest, he's been awarded two honorary degrees. Earned the highest national honors from two of our largest veterans' organizations, the American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars. Written two major books: "Our Revolution" in 2016, #3 on the New York Times Best-Seller list, and "Where We Go from Here: Two Years in the Resistance," 2018.
Called "the Energizer Bunny" for good reason, Bernie should be in his 2nd term as our president--but both runs (2016 and 2020) were clearly sabotaged. I don't think we'd let that happen again. He's given our nation so much already as a true public servant: re-elected mayor, re-elected U.S. Rep and now in his 3rd term as U.S. Senator--winning #2 with 71% of the vote. One personal mantra has served him well in every arena: "NotMeUs." Thank you for everything, Bernie.
We already have basic rights so what is he pushing for?
When Bernie says, 'Together it is a struggle we will win.' -- he means everyone that wants #M4A . WE MUST call our state representatives & call our federal senators & congressional reps & tell them we will vote for them if they support #MedicareForAll.
If you've been a support of Bernie in '16 or '20, or just support his effort to get us #M4A - then do your part. Organize a postcard writing campaign to your state reps & your state's Fed Senators & Congressional reps. Write a letter to all the local papers in your area 'touting the benefits of #M4A.
Oh & VOTE OUT EVERY REPUBLICAN from every single seat!
Thank you Bernie for all you have always done and continue to do for all people in our country! Your kind heart is appreciated and loved by so many- - all over the world and, especially by me!! Robin 🤗🙋🏻♀️🥰🌺
Love you Bernie.
100% TRUTH!!!!!!!!!
SPREAD THE WORD THAT WE NEED HEALTH CARE FOR ALL!!!!!!!!!
Watching Bernie here you think of him as President. You realize he could be halfway through his second term if things were allowed to play out as they should have. He looks presidential.
Yeah but he sold out to the DNC and the Democrat elite!Sanders and the swamp sold everyone out Obamacare took the Congress federal government healthcare from him because their healthcare is the best.They went around the system and got it back .He is lying when he says that everyone deserve the best hc regardless of their income but the fraud Bernie deserves IT MORE Then you .
Thank you Bernie
He never loses focus on the issues. Unlike many of us...
You're right, as always, Senator. Thank you for your message. DA
I love you. Thank you for fighting tirelessly for the working class.
Just be active in your community and VOTE ! That's for people that support and will take action for Medicare for all !
We don't have anyone to vote for, and frauds like Sanders steer the real left into the demoncrap party.
Voting's not enough. Get out and organize.
That's stupid, I supported Bernie in the primaries and didn't vote for Biden or Trump, if it wasn't for Bernie millions of people wouldn't know Medicare 4 all was a common thing in other countries
*I* *stand* *with* *Bernie* *Sanders* *because* *BERNIE* *SANDERS* *STANDS* *FOR* *US!!!*
voting doesnt help if you arent voting specifically for supporters of medicare expansion
This is exactly why I am running for U.S. Congress Ohio District 5 against Bob Latta. Please support our campaign and fight for Medicare For All Now.
no corporate money.

Go Bernie! Thanks for your continuous support of people. All people. ❤️
If there were any sense left in this world, bernie would be prez.
It's ironic.... Poland is providing free health care to the Ukrainian refugees who have flooded into their country. Somehow Poland can manage this, and yet here in the richest country in the world people go without healthcare unless they can pay for it. There's something not quite right about that ... Americans, it's time we stood up and said enough is enough. Healthcare is a human right, not a privilege. Poland understands that.
Prisoners get better healthcare than law abiding citizens in US!
I think often about the night Bernie swept Nevada. Sadly the last time I had hope for US politics. Thanks for all you do, Bernie.
I also still think often about that night. Iowa, New Hampshire and Nevada had been three strong wins in a row with South Carolina up next. Clyburn had at least been publicly, neutral. The Sanders campaign--staff and volunteers--had been working long, strong and smart in S.C. Then, the DNC reared out of neutral and sent in Buttigieg, Obama, Warren...and Clyburn...to prevent a Sanders sweep, which had certainly been a possibility, especially with Biden faltering.
Buttigieg got a major reward, the Transportation post. Clyburn, something, too. I was surprised at Elizabeth Warren's participation. Still, in December 2017, Bernie and she would write an op-ed piece for the New York Times in joint support of strong childcare funding in the Appropriations bill. Then, for a unique town hall in the Capitol Visitor Center the following March, he included her on a high level six-member panel about the high level of poverty and the income and wealth inequality in our country. He simply does not hold grudges. That a former president got involved at a primary level had probably bothered me the most.
We all need this Medicare for all united we love each other and can demand this from our govt officials they have it no one should go bankrupt due to health problems
I’m with you Bernie I’ll help as much as I can ty for fighting
So hard to watch my asmatic granddaughter struggle to breath. She cannot afford her rescue inhaler. They cost almost 300$ ever with GoodRx and I cannot afford to help her. Painful situation for her and painfull situation for me too.
And her asthma is probably caused by the pollution of a local corporation or 2.... God Bless 'Merica!
Holy Moly! That inhaler is MEGA-EXPENSIVE! What a rip off! I'm in Australia and the inhailer I bought about 6 weeks ago cost me $10.80.
@@davebrown3117 I wish that were funny--oh, wait --it IS!--just not funny in the US of A. Because, THERE, it's just obscenely expensive. GOD Bless Merica!
It's Symbicort and can be as much as 400$. I need it also but not as badly as my granddaughter. Health care and pharmaceuticals here are off the charts. Real Estate is out of control, grocery prices have been climbing since the beginning of covid and gas prices are also out of control. No clue how the working men and women are going to make it.
Why the f*ck is it not a state owned enterprise?
We Love You Bernie!!!!!!
Bernie, you're the best! Bless you many times over!
Bernie is so dogged and relentless.He reminds me of Columbo. We owe him, big time.
Bernie for President 2024!
We need Medicare for all, it truly is a basic human right! Thank you Bernie for all you do for the people.
1.Medicare for all.
2. Tax the super wealthy who avoid taxpaying
3. All federal vehicles have to be electric
Agreed 💯
So grateful for all of your hard work, Senator Sanders. 🐦🌹
Thank you Bernie!!! I am one of the young people that is being screwed left and right with medical bills. THANK YOU. THANK YOU for standing up and fighting back!!!
Great. Respect from Austria
We need Medicare For All here in the U.S., especially during this time with the Coronavirus pandemic!
What's more "pro-life" than ensuring that every person living here has guaranteed affordable healthcare regardless of their job?
If we all had access to basic healthcare, we would have the "freedom" to live long lives and rarely have to worry about medical bankruptcies.
Taxes will go up, but the overall costs will go down.
If some of us need additional healthcare than Medicare, then we have the "choice" to get additional insurance.
If every other developed country (Canada, Germany, U.K., France, Italy, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Switzerland, Taiwan, Japan, S.K., H.K., Singapore, Australia, and N.Z.) can implement this system and save money, then why can't we do the same and help "Make America Great Again" for everybody at least on the issue of healthcare?
If American citizens die from lacking access to affordable health insurance then we are failing our country's promise of defending "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" for its citizens as well as "promoting the general welfare" of everyone living here.
Exquisitely said. Thank you!
anti-war is also pro-life.
f this chit.
we need to stop the machine.
Face it,this great man might as well be talking to a wall,Americans don't care about each other ,it's dog eat dog , progressives work to elect people who will fight for programs like this only to be sabotaged by centrist Democrats like Joe Manchin and the blonde bimbo from AZ.This Democratic party is the left wing of the GOP ,they will never fight for the needs of the middle class or poor
@@danwalton2698 : Let me start by saying I essentially fully agree with you. But feel the need to clear up some terms, because I see how misusing terms has weakened public perceptions of many things, and that's absolutely by design. _The Southern Strategy_ (basically the beginning of the mass of racist dog whistles) is a good example to read about.
So _"left wing of the GOP"_ You sort of get it, but socialists are left-wing, and capitalists are right-wing. That's it. The liberal/authoritarian axis and the progressive/conservative/regressive axis are not the same things. Most democrats by far are capitalists, making the democrat party the center-right-wing, whereas the republicans are the extreme-right-wing, with independents who see themselves as "in between" the two parties are the far-right-wing.
There has never been a major party for the left in the U.S. Only during the great depression did the left gain much power at all. This is exactly why our government is failing The People.
Manchinenema are not centrists, they are far-right-wing capitalists at best, and I assert they are fascist simps, like anyone who so obviously supports the republicans now (and the republicans are indeed fascists, feel free to fact check me and read _The Fourteen Characteristics of Fascism)._
As far as Americans not caring about each other: here are some actual numbers to consider: in 2020 at their most numerous ever, the republicans represented less than 30% of the U.S. (74 million out of 255 million). On Jan 6th 2021, many thousands of republicans immediately left the party, officially. By the summer of 2021 we found out that only about 2/3 of what was left of the republican party still wanted the orange fascist as president.
That comes out to less than 20% of the country, giving them the full benefit of the doubt, not even including the many thousands who left the party after J6. That is less than 1 in 5 Americans. Yes that's really bad, and certainly a danger to democracy that we have so many fascists, but it's nowhere near what center-right-wing corporate media like CNN, and extreme-right-wing fascist media like Fox makes it out to be.
For many decades (centuries and even millennia really, if one goes back before there was a U.S.), We The People have been lied to about what these terms even mean. The greatest lie ever told is a perfect example..
Here is a riddle: _can you name even one country in known history that has ever been classless, moneyless, or stateless? Let alone all three at once._ Because that is the very definition of Communism. The actual fact is that *no* Communist country has ever existed in known history. Yet most of the people on the planet still believe this absurdly blatant lie. I did for half my life too, until I actually read the source material and the lies immediately became evident.
So I'm not berating you or anyone else for believing any of these lies, we were *all* indoctrinated as children. I simply strive to lay bare at least the most obvious of these lies.
As for leftists in our government: there aren't any (to our great detriment). Although people like Bernie and AOC are likely left-wing at heart, neither of them openly expresses nor pushes for anything more than centrism; a mixture of socialism and capitalism like what the U.S. had more of before 1981 when the reagan administration began paving the road to fascism in America, starting with trickledown.
I wish you and all my fellow Earthlings peace and prosperity. ^-^
We can all have it too, all that stands in our way is bigotry: the great divider. That is all that has allowed one or a few people to so completely dominate and control hundreds, thousands, and even millions of times their number, for thousands of years now.
When we humans finally rid ourselves of bigotry, we will all stand in solidarity and take back both the peace and the prosperity that has been stolen from all of humanity. ❤🌍🌎🌏
Note: You may already know some, or most of this. In particular I post knowing others can read this too, others that likely need to far more than someone like you who is obviously both intelligent and wise. I do not mean be presumptive beyond addressing what you've posted in the comment I'm replying to. My apologies if it even seems so. I do tend to post walls of texts. lols
There are a whole lot of lies and distractions We The People need to debunk if we are to progress beyond what the majority of democrats are trying to conserve (because they are mostly conservatives), and what the majority of republicans are trying to regress back to (because they are mostly regressives, not conservatives: _make America great *again)*._
@Jesse Torres : I don't often see your comments as much as I used to, but it's always a good thing when I do.
People like you, TheMargieP, and Dan Walton here all give me more hope for a better future for us all.
To each of you I say: Keep Being You !! 🙂🌻

Thank you, Bernie
Thank you Bernie for your continued efforts for our people. You are an American hero who continues to give hope to our conutry. I support you with all my heart and mind and believe that you would have been the most beloved and successful president since FDR. Please revive your massive grassroots movement to rebuild the momentum that was growing so successfully. I am 4 years older than you (also from Brooklyn) and pledge to attend every rally that you would hold to help rebuild the America you and I love so dearly. Bernie, the country needs you to set the example of how governments can love it's people instead of opressing them for the benefit of the oligarchs. We can't give up.
Please someone make this man 20 years younger and have him run for President again :(
So Right...on both points! Actually, to me, he seems 20 years younger than his age right now. Of course, I'm 83, which might influence my opinion of Bernie a tad. Particularly quick of mind, with a lifetime of knowledge and commitment to All of Us, he also has the continuing stamina of a far...far...younger man. Could that stem in part from being a competitive long-distance runner in high school in the Bronx? Or, perhaps because he also managed to graduate from the highly regarded...challenging...University of Chicago, while also a student activist--member of CORE (the Congress on Racial Equality) and SNCC (the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee...sprung from an overnight in jail by the NAACP.
You're in good company with your call for Bernie to run for POTUS again. I've read that many times over many months as a volunteer poster trying to keep the record straight about Bernie...and also perhaps help educate new recruits. It's great that more than one poster has noted some version of "Third Times a Charm" when urging him to run for President again.
I don't know yet what I think about that road yet, not that what I think matters at all. It's just that he was specifically thwarted by the DNC, and it seemed to me and thousands of others that "the elite" didn't play fair, either time. Evenso, in 2016, starting at about 3% as a relative unknown from a very small state, he won 22 states and over 3 million votes. Still, in 2020, even with the especially huge and enthusiastic rallies and long Election Day lines, not enough votes were tallied for him then either. The opportunities seemed there: 1) early voting, 2) voting by mail, usually well publicized Election Days. I'll never understand it, altho' I'll always believe he somehow didn't get reasonable media coverage, for whatever reason.
Make _this_ man Senate Majority Leader!
We believe in the logic of what you’re saying Thank you.

thank you bernie for representing us and not corporate interests. please run for president again, as you are our last hope for a rational society. at this point if we don't start behaving rationally survival itself is in question. please run again, as the majority of americans support you, even if the dnc does not
I'm glad to hear someone voice our concerns. I have Medicaid but few , if any psychiatrists will take it. I desperately need help for depression & anxiety. But Am falling through the cracks. Low quality care is what people w/ mental health issues are getting.
I am retired and have Medicare hope all people in America get it.
This is the man who should be President! Liked & Subscribed!
Thank you, Bernie, for always being there for the American people.
The best official and warm hearted man to be sitted as POTUS !

❤️❤️Thank you for all you do, Senator! There are so many of us who appreciate your fight, which should be ALL our fight! My idea is that since we have a need for more doctors, nurses and other college educated healthcare workers and those that teach them, I propose that anyone going. Into these fields of study get a free education with no student debt! These are our frontline workers today and throughout this pandemic. What would we do without them? Let's give them less stress in their overworked lives. Thank you again, Bernie! ❤️
