If she said the same things about Sanders you'd be giddy.

If I were to vote in a presidential

I'm glad our Democratic candidates are here to inspire animation in people. democratisphere Apr 2019 #2

Its more name recognition at this point with Biden; he's not in the race & therefore not campaigning InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #84
lol qazplm135 Apr 2019 #100
Bernie wasn't VP for EIGHT YEARS... so, yes!! InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #116
LOL I understand supporting your candidate NastyRiffraff Apr 2019 #126
Don't you understand? Bernie is perfect redstateblues Apr 2019 #165
Yes! Sorry! He is perfection itself! NastyRiffraff Apr 2019 #187
and Bernie ran for President in 2016 qazplm135 Apr 2019 #127
Bernie has nearly 100% name recognition...and has for four years. TwilightZone Apr 2019 #158
That is truly hilarious tymorial Apr 2019 #131
Hey is an awful campaigner. sfwriter Apr 2019 #153
I think Joe registered 1% in Iowa the last time he ran... InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #155
He had to drop out in 1988 due to plagiarism. sfwriter Apr 2019 #162
Oh that's right, forgot about that... like tRump won't bring ALL that old shit up again!! InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #163
Have I missed it? Did Bernie release his tax returns yet? Tipperary Apr 2019 #133

Animated enough, indeed. LakeArenal Apr 2019 #38
What's wrong with "animate"? thesquanderer Apr 2019 #11
Huh? What's the beef? No candidates are "here to inspire animation". They are candidates KPN Apr 2019 #17
I wonder how she feels about David Sirota, Nina Turner, and Briahna Joy Gray, and campains that hire still_one Apr 2019 #4
Sorry still one, this is an old trope saidsimplesimon Apr 2019 #78
All the people I named in that post voted for Stein, and were hired by one of the candidates still_one Apr 2019 #87
Sorry, simplesimon.. it was a valid question. Cha Apr 2019 #109
Good question, still_one! Cha Apr 2019 #110
Bernie's campaign officials voted for Stein, which was a vote for Trump - think about that... Skya Rhen Apr 2019 #147
Yes, and for me that is a problem. Talk about looking back, hiring those three not only is looking still_one Apr 2019 #148

What a team player SHRED Apr 2019 #7
Over 30 House members have already endorsed someone. thesquanderer Apr 2019 #14
Did they announce their support SHRED Apr 2019 #16
Biden isn't even a candidate. progressoid Apr 2019 #18
Haha. 27% support him. More than any one else. LakeArenal Apr 2019 #39
That's great. progressoid Apr 2019 #72
Lol. "Doesn't animate me" is now criticism. Holy moly! KPN Apr 2019 #19
It's worse. It's a Trumpan statement. Laura PourMeADrink Apr 2019 #152
How dare AOC give her opinion! Imagine she had said that about Bernie... InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #177
Of course it is. How many times have we heard that treestar Apr 2019 #184
Yes. betsuni Apr 2019 #186
She didn't criticize him...n/t TCJ70 Apr 2019 #42
Have any of them dissed the candidates that they haven't endorsed? THAT is the difference. George II Apr 2019 #36
How did she diss him? TCJ70 Apr 2019 #44
"....a bid by Biden would be going back, instead of moving forward....." George II Apr 2019 #53
That's not a quote from her...that's The Hill's interpretation of something she said. n/t TCJ70 Apr 2019 #59
This is a quote, not an interpretation: George II Apr 2019 #62
You're right. That is a quote. Good job. TCJ70 Apr 2019 #64
of course it's a criticism of him qazplm135 Apr 2019 #82
That quote basically says the same thing. I don't think Democrats should be saying.... George II Apr 2019 #115
Gotta be in the race to be the front runner... TCJ70 Apr 2019 #120
He literally said he is an Obama/Biden Democrat. Gore1FL Apr 2019 #76
This message was self-deleted by its author Gore1FL Apr 2019 #81
Did he say he was going backward? No! George II Apr 2019 #91
Many of us believe that 2017 is in the past. nt Gore1FL Apr 2019 #95
So Biden would have brought us back to 2017? Many of us believe that we're in 2019... George II Apr 2019 #99
But not all with policies from an administration that ended in 2017. Gore1FL Apr 2019 #104
I'm being sensible and realistic. If you consider that "obtuse", so be it. George II Apr 2019 #106
You seem to be pretending to not understand what I mean or what she meant. Gore1FL Apr 2019 #111
Sorry, that response didn't animate me. Have a great evening. George II Apr 2019 #113
You Too! nt Gore1FL Apr 2019 #114
AOC deserves our respect... she's doing Democrats a BIG favor by speaking the truth!! InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #134
She didn't endorse; she is being negative about someone treestar Apr 2019 #183

Joe Biden remains the most qualified both nationally or globally. LakeArenal Apr 2019 #41
"Most qualified" was what we ran with last time... TCJ70 Apr 2019 #45
So... you advocate for less qualified? LakeArenal Apr 2019 #51
We don't have anyone running who isn't qualified... TCJ70 Apr 2019 #60
Not really. LakeArenal Apr 2019 #67
It's not much of a debate... TCJ70 Apr 2019 #68
Wow. How nuanced you are. LakeArenal Apr 2019 #70
We need to support the most qualified and make sure he isn't robbed, cheated and persecuted. Celerity Apr 2019 #159
Yes, Joe is a he.. So is Pete. I like Pete very much.. Should He make the primary nomination... LakeArenal Apr 2019 #170
no one is anywhere near a lock to a point to remove any female candidate from consideration Celerity Apr 2019 #171
🤷🏼‍♀️ If it's presumptive to expect Joe to win.. LakeArenal Apr 2019 #173
I disagree, but I do respect your opinion, may the best person win Celerity Apr 2019 #176
That's what we all want. LakeArenal Apr 2019 #178

If writing the Patriot Act are the kinds of qualifications he brings to the table, then no thanks. BlueStater Apr 2019 #57
Just a few of the reasons Joe will not get my primary vote under any circumstances. InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #160
But until then you will bash him every time you get the chance. Nice redstateblues Apr 2019 #167
Not at all...I'll give Biden credit where credit is due. For instance, I very much LIKED the video InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #174
