    Do you even need someone better than Bernie? I think that's a bit overkill at this point.

    Dude, you should watch the show from this side of the pond: less direct negative consequences but all the fun! :grinning:

    Good leaders serve their people more so than that they simply rule.

    you expected this to be the election where we suddenly reverse course and magically elect a good candidate?

    "In the highest antiquity, the people did not know that there were rulers.
    In the next age they loved them and praised them.
    In the next they feared them.
    In the next they despised them.
    Thus it was that when faith in the Dao was deficient in the rulers a want of faith in them ensued.
    How irresolute did those earliest rulers appear, showing by their reticence the importance which they set upon their words!
    Their work was done and their undertakings were successful, while the people all said, 'We are as we are, of ourselves!' "
    - Translated by James Legge, 1891, Chapter 17 ​

    I was actually going to say "they have a large penis". Glad to see it was already included in the poll.

  15. I heard that Bernie Sanders heard how it was to live in the ghetto. Now he is hip to what we all go through. He looks like Larry David

  17. As if any of you have ever lived in piss poor conditions. Bernie came from a relatively poor Jewish family in the Bronx.

    i'm not entirely sure that's true this time. all the negative consequences may still occur in his case, but since they mostly affect americans they actually are less direct to him.
