You obviously didn't catch the Black Lives Matter quip. Maybe I presented it poorly?

I like Cruz's plan, all except for this - Under the Simple Flat Tax, the current seven rates of personal income tax will collapse into a single low rate of 10 percent. For a family of four, the first $36,000 will be tax-free.
These families are the ones milking the gov. teat, aka my tax dollars. They should pay in too.
Anything would be better than the corrupt IRS dept. & system we have now.

Great article, thanks! I'm an Atlantic subscriber, not sure how I missed that one.
Some great points in the article; Teddy Roosevelt's policies as a republican policy platform template.
Republican party unrecognizable.
"Sixty-two percent of Republicans, for example, believe that large corporations wield too much influence on American politics, according to a New York Times/CBS News poll conducted in May." WOW. So why do they keep voting for the megacorps?

Say what? Someone didn't watch the Dems debate or more than likely is incapable of processing what went down.
Bernie all but handed the nomination over to the con.

It's moments like these when I hear the classic song from the Wizard of Oz inching in my head; 'if I only HAD A BRAIN...'
You obviously didn't catch the Black Lives Matter quip. Maybe I presented it poorly?
You obviously see only what media wishes..BLM?..don't look to them for the barometer..look to a smiling, glasses biting Jesse Jackson in the audience of the last debate..while you were packing your bowl I watched crowd reaction to 'how many pairs of underpants do I have'?
It all about true party leaders not militant factions..

You have this exactly backwards; if we DON'T elect Bernie Sanders and a full slate of politicians who will work to help enact his policy platform, we will look like the fools we are to the REST of the planet.
You want to know why America isn't respected in the world today? Look at the morons we elect to represent us!

There was a brief moment when I thought Bernie had a chance to win. Bernie is just another politician. If forced to choose between politicians, Hillary, is the best. Bernie will play nice and concede to Hillary in exchange for a great position in her administration. Mark my words.
I'm convinced the Bern is just trying to increase his pay grade before he retires.

I will still vote for Bernie because he is correct in most of his assesments of fixing major issues that must be addressed at this time
1. Campain finance
2.Against all Trade deals made in past 20 or 30 years
3.Changing foreign policy away from spending excessive amounts our tax dollars on foriegn wars and other situations far away from our shores
Those issues are the most important to me personally. I would like to know who you are leaning towards and why, are they better on some issue important to you?
Just curious

Then you will be happy to know that Hillary has a comfy spot,in her administration, for ole Bernie.To be honest, I do not have a dog in this fight. I will never vote for a Republican, EVER! The democratic party is all the same, Hillary is just the more popular and shrewd of the bunch. This will be more about electing the first female president than anything. Much like it was for our first black/white president.
Actually, you are incorrect..
Hillary was a republican during the same time Sander marched on Washington with Dr King as well as fought against segregation practiced at his own northern college at uni of Chicago.
Hillary is a Neocon who is posing as a progressive only because of Sanders..nothing she speaks of is detailed = because she has nothing detailed, she's just talk the talk.
I would venture to say we'll have a male Jewish president before a female if you want to assign labels.
Name one thing do you not like about Sanders.

His hair. If you're gonna go all Einstein with it, don't go halfway!
Are you on drugs?
What great position? WTF do you think he has now?..he's a Senator..some people believe they can effect change and actually do so..it doesn't happen as a bullshit cabinet position.
Past history is best indicator of future performance.
Check out their very different voting records..
Lastly, don't forget Hillary went to Wall St and told them to 'Stop it..just stop it'..as a NY senator..how did all that work out for her? For us? For the world?
I was really hoping someone would turn him on to some fade and a close razored goatee/burns.
