Is Bidens campaign dead? (EDIT: Well, this was turned around completely.)

To be honest, the primary was more difficult to win than the general in my opinion. And I think Biden will have a harder time beating trump than bernie. But the Americans will reap what they sow. I tried my best to convince a lot of them to make the rational and humane choice of Bernie but if this is what they sow, they deserve it. The rest of us don't though and I feel very disheartened, especially for the Middle East.

Well that’s something else. I wouldn’t call voting for Bernie “rational and humane”. Socialism destroys countries and never works as envisioned. His policies breed dependence instead of making people self sufficient. 

My own bias aside, just because people don’t agree doesn’t mean they deserve bad things. There are pros and cons to everything, so long as you understand their perspective on top of trying to persuade your own onto them. 

If you elect someone despite all the warning signs and the constant stream of information about their bad history. You deserve that someone as president and whatever they bring. It's not like it was 2 really good candidates who were sensible and championed the betterment of humanity, there was only one. And you chose the other guy. The guy who drags you to war, tries to cut social security, is an obstacle to your healthcare.

Also Socialism doesn't fail Europe is doing fine and I would hardly call roads, universal healthcare, public schools and universities, universal education, the post office, emergency services, etc a failure. And US is also socialist already. It's just corporate socialism because guess what, subsidies, grants and bailouts are also socialism. It gives people freedom to do things, not breed dependence. It provides economic freedom. The US is socalism for the rich while rugged individualism for the poor. Socialism has been successful in keeping democracy alive because pure capitalism devolves into oligarchy and plutocracy. Socialis has it's flaws but it's an awesome system and mixed with some capitalism, it is the best system humans have developed.
