Bernie Sanders Announces 2020 Presidential Run

Senator Bernie Sanders, the Vermont independent and 2016 Democratic primary runner-up whose populist policy agenda has helped push the party to the left, announced on Tuesday that he was running for president again, embarking on a bid that will test whether he can retain the anti-establishment appeal he enjoyed with many liberal voters three years ago.
A self-styled democratic socialist whose calls for “Medicare for all,” a $15 minimum wage and tuition-free public colleges have become pillars of the party’s left wing, Mr. Sanders is among the best-known politicians to join an already crowded Democratic field and one of the most outspoken against President Trump, whom he has repeatedly called a “pathological liar” and a “racist.”
“Three years ago, during our 2016 campaign, when we brought forth our progressive agenda we were told that our ideas were ‘radical’ and ‘extreme,’” Mr. Sanders said on Tuesday in an early-morning email to supporters, citing those health, economic and education policies as well as combating climate change and raising taxes on wealthy Americans.

You had better pay your guild dues before you forget. You are 113 months behind.

Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam
Someone should troll run for democratic presidential nominee on a platform of free everything (free food, movies, cars, yugioh cards, video games, patio furniture, home renovations, lawn mowers, haircuts, everything) and taxing everyone 100% to pay for it. They should try to seem serious about it and credible though, at least as credible as these other retards touting free stuff, anyway. It would be hilarious.
They are trying to one up free stuff against each other. Warren just took the lead with her free childcare: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...-by-wealth-tax
Honestly, I always felt there should be "free" childcare. People who receive should have to perform Government appointed jobs to get that check, which would include free childcare for other low income families. They wouldn't be forced to do the job, of course, they just wouldn't get the welfare anymore.
