In reply to the discussion: As a Bernie Supporter I think Biden will lose to Trump if he continues to do these steps [View all]BidenBacker
(1,089 posts)M4A is a "loser" from the standpoint of this election...certainly not as a long-term policy objective. If we stupidly piss away this election we will not only not get any improvement that Biden has in mind but we will end up with a system that is even worse than it already is. You can bet your ass Trump and the GOP will make sure of that.
You see, I am a borderline "socialist" myself when it comes to many issues. But I am also an engineer who can count and got paid well to do so accurately my entire professional career. The numbers just aren't there yet and if Bernie's folks continue to act as if they are we will get crushed.
It's not terribly difficult to figure out how much rocket fuel one needs to make it to orbit or the Moon...and it doesn't take a rocket surgeon to figure out that Bernie's rocket is running on fumes. The sooner Sanders splashes down and gets the hell outta the way the faster we can finally get on with the REAL launch. I can't think of too many things I want more right now than to watch Trump burn up on reentry come November 3, 2020.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
