Anybody old enough on here that lived cold war years and knows just a smidgen of history including the term "fellow travelers" and what the meaning of the term is?
Did ya hear the grandmother lady born in 41' Brooklyn say to Sanders,
"From one traveler to another" you'll understand when I ask...... . Bernie smiled knowingly at the term.
"Traveler" is code word for Communist, not Socialist as Bernie claims he is.
Are Democrats so far gone that a communist in whitehouse is an a-ok thing?
If so you have just proved Kruschev correct.
"You will be defeated from within"
If so, you people are screw loose crazy traitors to this country and it's constitution.

Correction, democratic socialist which is a big difference. Have you heard of the word congress? Plus, republicans hold the house. So if we're jumping to conclusions, then I'd say we can start up the Crusades again by voting for the conservatives that are running.
The ruling Communist party, known as the Socialist Unity Party of Germany (SED), was formed in April 1946 from the merger between the Communist Party of Germany (KPD) and the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) by mandate of Joseph Stalin.
"With enormous energy, the warriors of Islam struck out against the Christians shortly after Mohammed's death. They were extremely successful. Palestine, Syria, and Egypt--once the most heavily Christian areas in the world--quickly succumbed. By the eighth century, Muslim armies had conquered all of Christian North Africa and Spain. In the eleventh century, the Seljuk Turks conquered Asia Minor (modern Turkey), which had been Christian since the time of St. Paul. The old Roman Empire, known to modern historians as the Byzantine Empire, was reduced to little more than Greece. In desperation, the emperor in Constantinople sent word to the Christians of Western Europe asking them to aid their brothers and sisters in the East."With enormous energy, the warriors of Islam struck out against the Christians shortly after Mohammed's death.

"That is what gave birth to the Crusades. They were not the brainchild of an ambitious pope or rapacious knights but a response to more than four centuries of conquests in which Muslims had already captured two-thirds of the old Christian world. At some point, Christianity as a faith and a culture had to defend itself or be consumed by Islam. The Crusades were that defense.

But wouldn't congress have to be complicit in order for Comrade Sanders to get anything passed that would and will be detrimental to the US?
