Oh, you sure showed me. How can I possibly recover from such a horrific burn? - That's condescending. Telling you to calm down when you're making a mountain out of a molehill isn't.

I answered your question in that one sentence.

You seem to choose to view everything in such a binary way in order to maintain your continual faux outrage.

You can easily poo-poo every single candidate for not being Christ reborn but that attitude doesn't really get you/us anywhere.

Is Bernie perfect? No. Is he better than what the US currently has in the White House. Well, I guess that depends on where you stand policy-wise, but from an integrity stand-point there's no credible way to not have Bernie ahead!

I'm not an expert on US politics but can you point out where Bernie has said that it's against his principles for a person to a) own more than one house or b) to become a millionaire? Because if he hasn't said those things then all you're doing is projecting your simplistic definition of socialsim on to a person who describes himself as a democratic socialist.

He himself says that he is not tied to Marxism or the abolition of capitalism but rather wants a program of extensive social benefits, funded by taxes.

So if you can't provide that evidence, please desist with the straw man arguments.

Can I also ask - where do you align yourself politically? If you made millions of dollars would you give it away?

I guess everyone can choose to tear their hair out over the US political system, but again, where does it get anyone? All we can do is try to nudge the tanker in the right direction by voting for the lesser of 2 evils (if you want to take the cynical view), who knows, maybe enough nudges over enough elections will improve things somewhat...

1). Typical of your ignorance.  House number 1 is a default...or you think a democratic socialist should not own a house to start with.  House 2 came with the book deal.  He has decades of experience in US government and damn near became the first Jewish and first democratic socialist candidate in the nation's 240 year history. You don't think he was going to be approached for a book deal?  House 3 has not a damn thing to do with champagne or socialism as most senators and many representatives own or rent a home in DC as part of their jobs.  Or should they commute from their home state to DC every work day?

2). Doesn't make him a hypocrite.  But I'm willing to listen how he applying his own policies against himself makes him a hypocrite.

3). Yes.  Yes, he does.  Look at the damn date on your link.  Look how old that is.  If you're going to debate, recency of data is pretty important.

My primary news comes from the box labeled "Most reliable for news". For research, I'll move down the into each side of the inverted V for factual reporting.  I stay away from editorials completely.

I just told you he only recently became a millionaire because of the book deal after the 2016 election.  You keep posting as though he's always been a millionaire.  And 1 of his houses was part of the book deal.  I just frikkin told you that.   You don't listen.

And he does donate to charity. Not sure why you ignore that completely. But more to the point is that he wants his taxes to BE his charitable contribution. Why do you have such a hard time understanding this concept?  Full healthcare, higher federal minimum wage, access to public colleges?  That IS his charity.  And he's been fighting for it...even getting arrested as an activist when younger...for decades.

Now you're just being ignorant.  You questioned my media preferences yet you post that?

ALL this and we've already had this entire conversation before a couple of months ago.  This is proof you have no interest in truth or correcting false pretexts, we're done here.

Well, I stand corrected. I was wrong there.

Still don't understand why he needs three homes though. Again, if he wanted to set an example and truly open people's eyes, then he should've donated his money to charity or helped the inner cities. But no, I suppose having three houses is more important.

Reminds me a lot of -

Have you checked what and where those houses are? Certainly doesn't look so.

He has one House in Burlington through his wife, one on Capitol Hill for Work in the Senate... and the last one is only a summer house, a cottage to rest by the lake

Here's his house in Burlington, the biggest int he bunch and only permanent residence:

Here is his home om Capitol Hill. Really tiny, but he doesn't need to commute to go to work in the senate with this one.

And this is his summer house:

He does have three houses, but only one of them can really be considered a home.

And same for those that want others to behave in a certain way and spout this and that about all the different kinds of bad if the only thing making them good is that silly vote then they need to get to work,it is so damn lazy to solely be a keyboardwarrior and the worst thing about it is that it only drives people apart and that judging and belittling makes you rarely convince anyone. I do not know who in here is sincere or not but those that do not actively try to make a difference might just be here to smugly boost their own ego and yeah those are part of the problem.

Also people firstly blindly vote for anything and secondly Trump has many decent people that voted for him too without any hatefull intentions,your image of the world and its people is a bit unrealistic negative imo.

Those are 2 different things. Your link was about his staff and $15 per hour, not his book deal. 

And recency refers to being the most up to date information.  It's a relative factor, not absolute. 

Your link is a laugh.  It uses satire as part of its debate.  It even says so.

And my chart has several conservative media outlets in the most reliable box...or do you not understand how to read the chart? 

You yapped about how a link that isn't even a year old is, well, old, despite saying that Bernie became a millionaire recently, in 2016. I thought it was a bit comical to be honest. You've got your script and stick to it.

I also said "have a laugh." Meaning, have a laugh. You don't get humour, do you? You must slaughter at parties.

I do have a couple questions, seeing as I'm totally dumb to American politics.

So Bernie...

1. Doesn't want his money

2. Wants to pay more taxes

Are these policies up and running? Has his Socialist dream already been realized?

Because, otherwise, this is a total punchline. It's one thing to say you'll do these things, it's another thing to, you know, actually do it. Guy's weak, just had a heart attack, and is being buried by his own party. He won't win. America won't ever be a Socialist country. He'll die a millionaire.

So, as it stands, Bernie is a hypocrite. A multi-millionaire Champagne Socialist with three houses. No better than the millionaires that he campaigns against. As a Senator, he already has massive power, so he could donate his millions to charities or help rebuild inner-cities. He could easily house immigrants in his second house as well. He could lead by example and would utterly destroy Trump and his competition should he do it. He'd be seen as The People's Champion.

But he won't. Why is that?

Man, you're like a broken record.

1. He's never said he doesn't want his money - and just his money would make ZERO difference at a national level.

2. He wants to tax at a national level to provide improved services.

These points are not mutually exclusive so just stop.

Your arguments are so full of broken logic that it's like trying to untangle a knot of wires...

I, and others have outlined in broad strokes what Bernie wants for the US and it isn't a socialism dream. You've been corrected on this multiple times and yet persist to trot out the same hubris...

Am I correct in thinking you're from the UK? If so, I'm assuming you think we're way too left, as Bernie's America would still be right of us...

Though, that stance wouldn't make a lot of sense as you profess to give most of your money away if you had it, which seems decidedly progressive...

I really don't know what your underlying motivation is, other than to shit on everything.

The irony of him calling into question my sources, him using biased sources and then not understanding how to read a chart specifically designed to illustrate reliable media outlets across the full spectrum.
