He wasn't listed in the inserts of his Blu Ray's.

I don't get it.

Poor drafting on my part.  What do you anarcho-capitalists think about Sanders?

He's a fruitcake, but I'm glad he's running.  I wouldn't vote for him, but would be pretty content with things if he won.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Maybe he should win.  That might be interesting.

He spends 95% of his free time watching movies.

Jet: I see.

He could win New Hampshire I think. If someone other than Clinton wins Iowa the election will be wide open.

I'm a fan of Bernie.  I'm also considering throwing a few bucks his way.  I would have loved to see Hillary not run and have all of the effort put forth by Republicans the past 8 years wasted in their smear campaigns.  Alas, she is and she is apparently trying her damnedest to add even more ammunition to her opponents stockpile.  I'm hoping for an outsider to sneak in and win the Democratic nomination.  As much as I love Bernie, I'm not sure he's electable by the masses.  A shame really. :(

I like some of what Bernie says and how he can shake things up, but too much I don't like as  he's too much in favor of more big government. But I like his too big to fail stuff and some other hot issues. "if an institution is too big to fail, it is too big to exist."  If he means what he says, and in Bernie's case he probably does, then I'm glad he's in the race at least to stir things up and bring up these issues. As for a President I don't see him getting very far yet, but with only Hillary in the race so far with her issues, the race may widen rather suddenly for the Dems.

He is just going to force the Democrats to be more radical in the primary and weaken them in the general. The Republicans should like this.

Ide, any particular reason you chose the word Pharoah instead of Caesar or the myriad other authoritarian terms you could have used?

He should have used Czar. We have had more of those than Russia had by this point.

I thought he would look festive in the hat.

WTF is a "pharoah"?

It is a member of the ruling dynasty of ancient Egypt.
