  • Bernie,

    You are not speaking as a Democrat. You are simply coming from a position with COMMON SENSE.

    You are amazing. The only person in DC that comes from a very simple, fair minded, undistorted viewpoint.

  • @willardway

    You are not even aware that you are being hoodwinked by this "grassroots" corporate monster. Seriously, dig deeper. Find out who is really behind the Tea Party. Don't take the word of the media. Follow the money.

  • If one doesn't think corporations should pay more taxes then consider this; who paid for the roads, ports, water, sewage, etc, that they use? That would be working people.

  • @lcf02139 Bernie is a socialist and has never meet a government program worth funding in ever increasing amount. He and the other Democrats have to face the fact that the government is broke. It cannot afford to continue spending and borrowing money. Nothing is being cut in reality. The Federal government is NOT going to spend less than last year.

  • what a fool.

  • this man speaks true and makes sense!

  • @lcf02139 Bernie isn't a Democrat though, so he would never speak as one, lol. He's an independent socialist.

  • @biggerturtle What the hell is wrong with you. You are the perfect example of how evil the right is in this country! In order for our society to work perfectly we all have to be compassionate yet sacrifice, but taking out our problems on the poor, old, and sick isn't the way to do it.

  • @srw1142 Do what I did...post his videos on your FB or twitter, email them out to family and friends. It is our job as the "people" to get the news out. The media will not. We the people must.
