Racism in America, Socialism, and Medicare for All Dominate Democratic Debate (1/2)

1. I rather have socialism over racism

2. Biden endorsed her runs for CA attorney gen and CA senate. now we're supposed to believe they're enemies. save it.

3. So she had a prepared line written by an advisor that makes her look like a mom. Who cares

4. 2 black women, i wonder what they're going to think of kamala harris? give me a break RNN . her record stinks. beating up on biden is easy. someone should ask harris if keeping people in prison when they were known to be innocent was correct. check her record

5. Biden looks like a little boy who was scolded by his mother for stealing cookies. Can't trust Harris though, on the issues. She is definitely seeking to become the establishment favorite and surpass Biden

6. WTF am I watching here? Kamala Harris is a corporatist and she will sell us all out.

7. If Hickenlooper and Kimberly think the republicans will not call ANY Dem a socialist, they are woefully mistaken. They called corporate centrist Obama a Kenyan Marxist. These guys are fools. Move to the center? Tried it in 2016 and we got the authoritarian these guys are complaining about.
   BTW, this was not a debate, nor was it designed to be a debate. MSNBC made sure of that.

8. Look at her record Harris is OBummer 2.0 I'm glad she took a swipe at Biden, I hope he will easily return the favour and those 2 useless idiots are both outta here.

9. These debates are nothing but a popularity contest. None of these candidates made an impact on me. Not even Tulsi.

10. Dems (the world) need a Vision — one that can see the Next 250 years of our experiment in self-government. Short term thinking will not provide solutions — at best, band-aids. The People must create their own Vision of a shared humanity that is so inspiring, that the grandchildren of the 1% adopt it as their own. What's your vision? I dare you to think so boldly.

11. Trump is going to win again because these democrats are bad at lying.

12. The Oligarchs are preaching The Slave Bible, teaching The Divine Right of Billionaires and the Doctrine of Eternal Damnation for those who embrace Socialist Programs like Medicaid, Social Security and Public Education! 🎯

13. Williamson had done extensive research for years and wrote numerous books and her signature policy is reparations for African Americans, but when she raised the issue, all the credit goes to Harris. If Harris cared so much for African Americans as a black woman, why didn't she come up with a reparations plan? This was the time to give reparations a platform. Instead, she made it all about poor her when she got to be the attorney general of CA and prosecute parents whose kids were truant.

14. It's all a political calculation knowing that both liberals and conservatives want their kids in ideological charter schools. There's a void in the system for people like me who went to integrated southern public schools and had a great experience throughout the 80s growing up with black classmates. The worst part of it was that we didn't have any way to change the systemic racism negatively impacting their lives. The right wing benefits from left wing programs and then either takes credit or dismantles the very things that built the society.

15. Run to the centre….. Yeah. There's an abyss in the centre. Learn that or lose.

16. She also didn't prosecute Mnuchin even after her staff recommended that he be charged.

17. Haven't been to Real News in a while… This panel gives off a very tame, centrist feel… has this become the norm at Real News?

18. Tulsi Gabbard is the ONLY TRUE STATESMAN…everyone else is a politician/pawn, trying to further their personal/political careers!

19. None of these ladies have a chance to win I’m sorry to say that but unfortunately this is true .

20. The rhetoric on socialism doesn't matter. What matters is the solutions democrats are offering. Obama was called/branded a socialist and he couldn't even get a public option. An American public that is uneducated on economics is not concerned about semantics and philosophy, their concern is on the issues that effect their daily lives. Donald Trump, George W. Bush, these people were not elected because they were articulate and careful linguists. Hickenlooper and Gillibrand barely made 1% in the polls, their points hold no significance. Considering them credible points is a recipe for losing.

21. Harris was a debater at Howard… she argues and holds ZERO integrity. She's a snake.

22. Here we go, pushing the establishment candidate. Kamala is an opportunist, plain and simple. She's the female version of Obama. A great orator, that makes you feel safe while putting a knife in your back.

    Her record in California is abysmal. Just as Trump couldn't carry New York, Kamala won't carry California, because Californians know her just as New Yorkers knew Trump.

    She's proud to say she's the "Top Cop" and all about Law and Order. But don't be fooled, while she fits the bill as a minority female, she's establishment all the way. Her record actually reflects this as she's been very restrictive towards minorities in California.

23. Harris is criminal that uses the race card and Dr. Kimberly Moffit is seriously ignorant and builds her up by she's task oriented and showing her human side… How was Harrison is task oriented when she failed to prosecute Wells Fargo for fraud that institutionalized racism and Catholic Church for molestation the poor kids, mass incarceration, and Insurance Companies HIPPA violation. Please Moffit STFU for Justifying Harrison's immoral policies… you know nothing with your education.

24. by removing the James 5:1-5 few*rich who control Communism, Socialism, Capitalism. The people* can govern themselves, without the open or secret control of the James 5:1-5/2Cor.11:13-15 millionaires and billionaires. Look at the condition this planet due to their attempt to govern the masses and the environment !! Isaiah 24:5* Please pray for Matthew 6 :10 for His Kingdom to replace the ineptitude, confusion engineered, and real.

25. the US taxpayer is supporting a vast SOCIALIST WELFARE PROGRAM called…
    the PENTAGON, the MILITARY, which takes over half the FEDERAL BUDGET.
    How's that for socialism ! ! The US is the biggest SOCIALIST country in the world.

26. It was great that Kamala took-down and exposed Biden but, Kamala's record wasnt challenged and it needs to be…

27. Don’t care she is another loss for the black community so what she put on a show

28. The only woman I would vote for in this election will be Tulsi Gabbard. The only man in this election that I will vote for is Bernie Sanders. If the DNC rigs this election like they did in 2016, I will leave the Democratic Party and be an Independent. I will Never vote for a Republican either. That leaves the Green Party for me to vote for as I did in 2016. Socialism is not a dirty word. Capitalism is.

29. If 75% of the American people want Medicare for all, college for all and the green new deal does that mean 75% of the country is on the left or is THAT the center?

30. Hi :1) Harris looks like she learnt alot from Trump's Presidental campaign as did most of the other candidates. Whitewash your past (Harris had an absolutely Appalling record of Criminalizing Black Communities as a D.A.) and now she is painting herself as a Saviour of Black Rights?? secondly, to make promises you have no intention of keeping but you know the majority of folks wanna hear. Just as there are plenty of White folks willing to sell out their race, black folks no different. Until we see it's the Poor they hate regardless of race, gender or geography we will continue to be penetrated without our express permission..

31. Americans have been waiting for socialized medicine since Eisenhower was president from 1953 to 1961. Pity, that the lifespan 63 years of a single individual went without a National Health Program because the change of administration and the Cuban Missles Crisis put Medicare for All into the category of being a communist plot. The bigger a circus the McCarthytes can put out the less the people will think about Universal Health Care. It was a perfect fit for the establishment right wing to politicize health as a tool of infiltration by Soviet Russia. It intimidated a generation. Is this the generation of democrats who can see past the Cold War ideology? Not be intimidated by Trump who comes from the McCarthyite era of New York anti-Communists. Americans would rather be American than socialist is their call to being patriotic to an idea of a free society of individualism or their conception of what the US or socialism is not! Its an indication they are guided by fear and fear is their worst enemy. The conservative working class wing of the GOP are the most persuaded by patriotic ideology, do not have answers to the contradictions of capitalism. Trump is this wing of the GOP, he is seen as fighting every step of the way against the establishment he was never a part, is also a McCarthyite anti-communist, a chauvinist, and embodies all the characteristics of a non-pompous establishment elite, will argue Health Care for All is socialism. One democrat will have to confront Trump on that question and call it as it is. I'd say to Trump, it is. What will they say to him? If Bernie confronts Trump with, it is socialism, an entire Cold War history comes to an end and the beginning of the era of Universal Health Care ends the century old strategy of holding everything hostage to socially control individual members of society. 

    But in the meantime Beoing is under some intense pressure to solve its software problems and get their planes back on the market. The product in its repair mode is eating up the billions of dollars in profits invested into making the dam thing, and to save this company from collapse, it needs that sale money, and this initiates the American president to open channels and line up buyers. Boeing is ready to re-enter the market once the software glitch is fixed. But who in their right mind is going to stick their neck out and with public funds purchase Boeing aircraft with its public safety record marred by three crashes, without being muscled into it? An idiot is who, a Juan Giaudo character, making sure people like this are positioned in decision roles in government solicits the work of Secretary of State and the help of an international network who can supply troops. People who make these decisions have to be manipulated and bought off are used. The Boeing situation solicits the work of national security experts the billions of dollars in market loss is a national security concern. Boeing, before going under, and as a handful of aircraft producers salivating for it to die surround Boeing like Jackals waiting for the kill, will become the subject of another bail out the government will impose on the American people. A patiotic bail out is likely to be the spin on Health Care, less important than the billions of profts in market share, cannot be taken for granted as a lie, or exaggeration when the Jackals are real. It would become another trick to divert attention from Universal Health Care, another effort to defer the American people of the natural right of good health, if competition in this field did not exists, if China and Russia, the Jackals, were not aggresive in defense build up.

32. Was Kamala a dishonest racist bully towards the non-coloured poleticians? I checked, she was born in '64, and school year books in her state in 64 already show integration. I'm not American or Mexican or anything, but the Democrat Poleticians spoke about gun and people control a lot, ie constitutional changes in incremental steps. No-one mentioned the US national debt, while touting spending increases via tax increases. Middle America does want middle class manufacturing work back in their states, I agree that Mr Trumps policy's seem more attractive at present. Good discussion

33. Kamala Harris is a great speaker and very charismatic. But would not vote for her, because
    she is bought and paid for by WallStreet and Big Corporations.
