His time has passed in more ways than one.

Sound familiar?

Why should he quit......and let down the many, many people who have invested both their time and money in his campaign?

Who's saying he should?

He's well within his right to drag it out as long as possible and even run as an independent, I'm sure he could muster the support. That decision should be weighted against the damage it could do to the Dems chances

The decision lies with him

No doubt you'd prefer Biden. A known liar and hypocrite (with the odd financial irregularity thrown in).

I wonder if he's related to 'I only travel First Class' Socialist Lisa Nandy?

I think we'd of heard about it if he was.

I would prefer Biden to Trump, I also think that'll be the options the Democratic and Republican parties opt for.

Do you think it's more important to vote for another cheek of the same arse than advance progressive politics?

If The Bern stands would you vote for him?

Possibly, it'd be dependent on which state I lived in and whether he was under the independent or Democratic banner

I answered the question honestly, there are many nuances in the answer for myself.

Why do you feel the need to bring up Lisa Nandy, a woman from an ethnic minority into responses about American politics comrade? I struggle to see the relevance.

I believe NuneatonO was refering to you not answering the first question.

As for Lisa Nandy I'm afraid she is a centerist non entity and to be a centerist in this epoch is to completely fail to grasp the politics of the age.

I'll work from the assumption you answer for him

I answered your question. I still fail to see how a mixed race woman born in Manchester has any relevance to a discussion on the Us Presidential Eletion 2020 though

That is Spenlike in its pedantry.

What has Lisa Nandy's race got to do with it?

In fact, apart from you, who said anything about Lisa Nandy's race? She's British, isn't she?

I'm totally confused. Please enlighten me. :~

I thought it might be a reason you seem to have a fixation with her.

Why did you bring her up twice unprompted in the context of a US election?

He might be Jewish but he’s not the right type of Jewish, apparently.

Wow! Just Wow

"He comes out fine if the bar is as low as not being an active antisemite, but is this really the best America's Jews can hope for?"

Are there many jews who are active anti-semites? This is getting really f*cked up now.

Well done the Israeli State propoganda machine. Hating your own people. How good does that feel?
