Yes, because Bernie expands the party. DanTex Mar 2020 #2
Who is Joe Rogan? True Blue American Mar 2020 #3
A roid raging comedian Codeine Mar 2020 #9
No wonder I True Blue American Mar 2020 #15
Wasn't he also rownesheck Mar 2020 #18
Forgot about that. Codeine Mar 2020 #19
Yep, just how many times can we watch people play with bugs? :) nt Sloumeau Mar 2020 #31
I listen to his podcast with certain guests: Neil De grass Tyson, Graham Hancock, Randall Carlson. johnthewoodworker Mar 2020 #45
I think he hosted "Ow My Balls!" lagomorph777 Mar 2020 #54
He's also a magnet for gamergate incels. Crowman2009 Mar 2020 #61
Color me unsurprised. nt Codeine Mar 2020 #64
His interview with Neil deGrasse Tyson is fairly informative PJMcK Mar 2020 #63
Apparently a favorite among some Sander DUers who posted his endorsement as a major grantcart Mar 2020 #48
Because all they do is bring their deplorableness into our party... W_HAMILTON Mar 2020 #6
"Fuck 'em" is a horrible voter turnout strategy. DanTex Mar 2020 #8
So are banal and witless political bumper stickers. LanternWaste Mar 2020 #10
ROFL Sloumeau Mar 2020 #38
It would probably be good if people quit disparaging other democrats. Some time in johnthewoodworker Mar 2020 #49
ROFL SilasSouleII Mar 2020 #46
We are saying "fuck em" to those like Rogan who hate Democrats but are grantcart Mar 2020 #59
Yeah, that's not a good strategy if we want Rogan's millions of listeners to vote Dem. DanTex Mar 2020 #60
Lol grantcart Mar 2020 #62
Did you not just read where I said these people will not turn out for us in November anyway? W_HAMILTON Mar 2020 #69
"For every blue collar vote we lose, we pick up two in the suburbs". DanTex Mar 2020 #70
We have had an election since then to test the results. W_HAMILTON Mar 2020 #77
You mean like saying the votes of Democrats in red states primaries aren't important ehrnst Mar 2020 #80
What the hell? Chakaconcarne Mar 2020 #28
Fuck the people that are "bringing in" disunity into our party. W_HAMILTON Mar 2020 #68
I believe that in this case... Sloumeau Mar 2020 #34
Some limits and standards are important. Least common denominator Trump expanded the GOP... lostnfound Mar 2020 #12
Huh. I keep being told that we need a big tent. DanTex Mar 2020 #14
Fair enough, but the results so far say that Bernie IS NOT bringing in new voters... brooklynite Mar 2020 #17
Tbf, what self respecting Democratic candidate would look to expand the tent by including Joe Rogan? OnDoutside Mar 2020 #20
True, but the question is, who will bring new voters in the GE, not the primary. DanTex Mar 2020 #21
We won those voters over in 2018 House races...with moderate candidates. brooklynite Mar 2020 #24
I hope you're right. DanTex Mar 2020 #35
Are AOC, Rashida Tlaib, and Ilhan Omar considered moderates. johnthewoodworker Mar 2020 #55
Can't afford Sanders "trust me". He's had a fair chances to show bring out chops and hasn't uponit7771 Mar 2020 #29
We've heard Bernard's stuff before awesomerwb1 Mar 2020 #51
+1, and his "I haven't seen those numbers" responses to these facts last night on Rachael was subpar uponit7771 Mar 2020 #53
Bernie does better with groups who don't vote. greymattermom Mar 2020 #33
The flip side is, Biden does better with people that are already going to vote D. DanTex Mar 2020 #36
But DanTex, here is what you have to remember... Sloumeau Mar 2020 #44
Fair points, I hope you are right. DanTex Mar 2020 #52
There's NO reason for the people who were NOT going to vote D to sit out voting for Sanders NOW uponit7771 Mar 2020 #56
Bernie makes big promises about new voters, Sloumeau Mar 2020 #37
We do and can win have a big tent without assholes and racist if Russia isn't involved. uponit7771 Mar 2020 #26
Russia will be involved, that's the problem. DanTex Mar 2020 #30
It's about decency. showblue22 Mar 2020 #66

They're not going to vote for a Dem because of Rogan. TwilightZone Mar 2020 #13
To people who don't vote as consistently as older people. uponit7771 Mar 2020 #22
And independents. And Joe Rogan listeners. DanTex Mar 2020 #23
We have to go on facts, Sanders "bring out" chops are mostly talk. Biden got nearly 1 mil more votes uponit7771 Mar 2020 #25
More votes in the primary. The general election is a different story. DanTex Mar 2020 #27
No its not, He's not doing what Obama did in 08 and that's the measure he needs to make that claim uponit7771 Mar 2020 #32
Would this be the party Bernie refuses to join? dlk Mar 2020 #47
That's the one, yes. DanTex Mar 2020 #50
How is that working out for him? mcar Mar 2020 #67
I think some are addicted to anger and resentment Walleye Mar 2020 #4
I quit watching Cenk True Blue American Mar 2020 #5
Yeah i've noticed that too. nt el_bryanto Mar 2020 #7
At least Cenk got demolished in his primary - he got 5%. TwilightZone Mar 2020 #11
I like Joe Rogan. He does reach a lot of younger people BusyBeingBest Mar 2020 #39
I am not aware that this is a crime! McKim Mar 2020 #40
Progressive ideas like voting against the Brady Bill? LexVegas Mar 2020 #41
No more ideas like medicare for all, increased taxes on the wealthy and corporations, johnthewoodworker Mar 2020 #57
It's not a matter of reaching out to progressive voters. cab67 Mar 2020 #43
10 days ago, Bernie chose freaking Castro AGeddy Mar 2020 #42
Yes.. Castro, too. Cha Mar 2020 #72
You know it is disingenuous because you read minds? Farmer-Rick Mar 2020 #58
He'd need to reach out to liberals/progressives, too morillon Mar 2020 #65
