Support NeoGAF

[RustyNails]

I think I just saw this entire movie.

 

[Soyongdori]

Oh so Bernie wants to build on Obama's record on race relations but start over on healthcare despite 90% coverage. Okay bro

Shillgaf in a nutshell

 

[Valhelm]

Maybe so, but your candidate ain't winning new voters with his shit wordsmithing tonight.

Bernie is so popular with white Democrats that a comment like that won't do much. He needs to whatever he can to secure support among voters of color, although his attempts today haven't all been graceful

 

[Gruco]

When are we going to quit fucking around and get to the part of the debate where the candidates talk about Wall Street?

 

[Trojita]

"Children's Defense Fund" is Hillarys "Wall Street"

Children's Defense Fund sounds like a fund for a Child Army.

 

[kess]

I just tuned in and the first thing I see is Bernie saying I VOTED AGAINST WALL STREET

If this was a drinking game...

 

[Tesseract]

Guys the wall Street hammering isn't for us, it's for state viewers

Plus it's worth repeating endlessly because all our problems are tied to it

 

[ATF487]

Sanders on the 90s: "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times..."

It was the blurst of times?!?

 

[Ekdrm2d1]

I'm sorry, but Clinton is just better at this.

My President

 

[Razorskin]

The periodic table under the Clinton presidency.

 

[King Tubby]

Did Hillary even address the Superpredator remark in any detail or did she just deflect it with other shit?

 

[BoboBrazil]

Let's dispel this notion that Wall street doesn't know what it's doing. It knows exactly what its doing.

 

[Gutek]

I just tuned in and the first thing I see is Bernie saying I VOTED AGINST WALL STREET

If this was a drinking game...

He said it for the first time in like 30 minutes. Bad timing on your part.

 

[kingslunk]

Yo this is so much more professional than the lol republican debate the other night.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

That movie looks incredibly lame.

 

[Charles Alan Ratliff]

I purge because staying in is un-American.

 

[royalan]

Hillary: "So yeah, the welfare bill would have been great if it weren't for Republicans. But on the other hand, remember the last time a Clinton was president? Let's do that again."

It's a good response.

You can't make the case that the Clinton's in the 90s didn't care about poor black people when incomes went UP for those very same people during his presidency.

If Bernie gets to invoke Bill's failures as president to attack Hillary, she damn sure can invoke his successes.

 

[kirblar]

Oh, I know but I'm talking specifically about Bernie's reference about D.C. twenty years ago. D.C. wasn't always a great place to live. I'll say D.C. cops are also don't have the same excessive force and systemic discrimination policy that other metro cities have these days.

Probably because they don't have a ton of white people as constituents.

 

[boiled goose]

hahahah wall street again! just finish your drink, and the next one too

Bernie def missing some opportunities... Instead of always weakly going to Wall street.. he should instead mention how money corrupts other issues.

for profit prisons
NRA
etc.

 

[pigeon]

This election year Purge ad is SO FUCKED UP.

"An economic boom happened to coincide with my husband's presidency" is much worse than Bernie's Wall Street pivots

Not really. You are correct to note that presidents don't have much control over the economy but it's not like Bernie is challenging that idea either. His entire campaign is based on the idea that he can fix the economy with socialism!

By contrast, there are actually like a million problems that WALL STREET is not the correct answer to. Bernie would be a terrible Trivial Pursuit player.

 

[Trojita]

Did Hillary even address the Superpredator remark in any detail or did she just deflect it with other shit?

"I'd never use it again but it wasn't racist, I swear"

 

[strikeselect]

Hillary has this smirk on her face everytime the 90s are mentioned .. "Let's talk about the 90s"

 

[kaskade]

Did Hillary even address the Superpredator remark in any detail or did she just deflect it with other shit?

Classic Clinton.

 

[Makai]

Oh so Bernie wants to build on Obama's record on race relations but start over on healthcare despite 90% coverage. Okay bro

What was the coverage percentage in 2009?

 

[Steel]

Did Hillary even address the Superpredator remark in any detail or did she just deflect it with other shit?

She basically said it was a shitty decision and then pivoted to race issues.

 

[Valhelm]

So u want him to spend 4 yrs fighting for health care again when it's easier to work on improving obamacare.

I'm not sure if Obamacare should be fixed. It's a great short-term solution to give poor Americans access to some healthcare before a public option is available.

 

[excelsiorlef]

Did Hillary even address the Superpredator remark in any detail or did she just deflect it with other shit?

She did the day after she got protested against.

 

[King Tubby]

If Bernie gets to invoke Bill's failures as president to attack Hillary, she damn sure can invoke his successes.

I thought that you can't solve the problems of black America through purely economic solutions?

 

[RustyNails]

Gaf, save this post and please use any face meme next time Bernie talks about Wall Street

 

[Michael F. Assbender]

"Children's Defense Fund" is Hillarys "Wall Street"

She's said it twice tonight. I lost count at 17,482 "Wall Street"s.

 

[mackaveli]

we going to talk about foreign policy soon?

 

[jett]

Let's dispel this notion that Wall street doesn't know what it's doing. It knows exactly what its doing.

I appreciate this post.

 

[brianmcdoogle]

I'm watching CNN International, so commercial breaks for me are just stock quotes and world weather reports. Do you guys have a youtube link for the movie trailer you're all talking about?

 

[foxtrot3d]

Probably because they don't have a ton of white people as constituents.

Well, it also helps that the federal government sits right there along with the President who can come down hard on that bullshit. Plus, it's or capital and thus a tourist city can't have nasty cops shooting everything that poses a "threat."

 

[Arkeband]

Oh so Bernie wants to build on Obama's record on race relations but start over on healthcare despite 90% coverage. Okay bro

We have better coverage now, but now we also have things like spousal penalties, higher prices, the Medicare gap, and the insurance industry posting record profits.

It's okay to admit Obamacare sucks, it's not all his fault, it's mostly due to obstruction, but pretending it's something it's not just makes you look uninformed.

 

[Slayven]

Under President Sanders white people will know the ghetto....

 

[Draper]

She's said it twice tonight. I lost count at 17,482 "Wall Street"s.

Yes, but were you aware that she supports President Obama?

 

[Makai]

Bernie on a first date. Will not shut up about his favorite movie.

 

[B-Dubs]

for profit prisons
NRA
etc.

If he mentions the NRA then all of a sudden it's an attack on himself. No way does he shoot himself in the face. No one is that dumb.

 

[Trojita]

Gaf, save this post and please use any face meme next time Bernie talks about Wall Street

What if this backfired on you and was used against things Clinton says?

 

[Damerman]

Sanders you don't want to be Rubio

Stop

You are comparing referendum versus verbatim repetition of some trivial bullshit.

 

[pigeon]

Did Hillary even address the Superpredator remark in any detail or did she just deflect it with other shit?

She said "I was wrong, I should not have said it, I would never say it again."

I mean...that's pretty comprehensive? What were you looking for, exactly?

 

[OpinionatedCyborg]

It's a good response.

exactly. Bill pressed the "good economy" button and then pulled the "improve black incomes" lever.

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

faces are still funny, so it's a win win

 

[Valhelm]

A lot depends on what defines economic health. Is GDP shrinkage acceptable if it's met with a massive decrease in poverty? it all depends on priorities.

 

[Michael F. Assbender]

Yes, but were you aware that she supports President Obama?

Touché.

 

[stupei]

Her comment about super predators had nothing to do with drug cartels. What a liar.

It literally did, though.

We also have to have an organized effort against gangs, just as in a previous generation we had an organized effort against the mob. We need to take these people on, they are often connected to big drug cartels, they are not just gangs of kids anymore. They are often the kinds of kids who are called superpredators. No conscience. No empathy. We can talk about why they ended up that way but first we have to bring them to heel. And the president has asked the FBI to launch a very concerted effort against gangs everywhere. In addition to that, he has appointed a new drug czar.

But why bother to fact check when you can call someone a liar.

 

[magnifico]

Did she really tie W. to the beginning of trickle down economics starting after Bill? TDE was alive long before then.

 

[NimbusD]

Oh so Bernie wants to build on Obama's record on race relations but start over on healthcare despite 90% coverage. Okay bro

It's so crazy how Hillary (or any skilled politician really) can rephrase something someone is/wants to do and people will just nod and eat it up.

 

[boiled goose]

Hillary is definitely a bit sharper and saavy.
Her defense and deflection is better.

She has weaknesses, but solid defense.
Bernie doesn't always find the weakspot and his defense is bad.
