There should also be a poll about whether "handicapped" is an appropriate word to use for DanTex Jan 2020 #9

Oh please...that is all you have? Demsrule86 Jan 2020 #14

I don't "have" anything. I just think it would be a good poll to do, to see what people would think. DanTex Jan 2020 #16

Why don''t you address the issues. Your whataboutsism won't save the Sanders nomination. Demsrule86 Jan 2020 #21

Yes, I think it's important to avoid potentially offensive language like "handicapped". DanTex Jan 2020 #23

I find it a bit remarkable that one candidate has managed to hire so many of these loons. TwilightZone Jan 2020 #19
