I was a top canvasser for my area's Sanders campaign, and my partner from that time and I were talking the other day about "getting the band back together for 2020". But like Jimmy Dore, Tim Black, and other youtube commentators, I'm also looking with favor at Tulsi Gabbard. I've been talking her up, and sending a donation or three to her, ever since she told off the DNC for their treatment of Sanders, and resigned her position as Vice Chair. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tulsi_Gabbard#Democratic_National_CommitteeAnd in case anyone is interested ... I know, it's ActBlue, but I think they have some kind of a monopoly on this kind of fundraising for Democrats. I donated a buck, and stiffed 'em on the tip. They got a lot of tips from me when I was supporting Sanders.
I crossposted this at Beyond3d in a thread there.

I like Sanders but every single right wing crank has labeled George Soros as the ultimate boogieman, I first heard it on conspiracy sites and the first main stream person I heard go on about him was Glenn Beck(remember him? lol)
Based off that alone I think he should be president.

They (the establishment and media) did the same thing to Jill Stein (Green Party candidate) and smeared her for collusion with the Russians to rig the last election. It's almost becoming like the "Red Scare" and McCarthy hearings from the 50's all over again. Politics has become so damn corrupt in this country. People being smeared & falsely accused should bring up defamation charges and sue the shit out of these organizations. But I guess they don't because the legal system is corrupt as well. Whoever can afford the most expensive lawyers wins and, thus, most individuals wouldn't stand a chance suing a multi-billion $ organization.

Corruption is so commonplace I wonder if any of this will make any difference or cost him anything trofire.com/2019/02/23/mitch-mcconnell-busted-helping-donors-get-contracts-from-his-wife/

Corruption is probably the main reason why Hillary lost. imo, the DNC made a huge mistake backing her... I believe the Dems could've easily won the last election if they put forward a different candidate... Hillary's private email server and FBI letting her off the hook despite being a court marshal offense for military personnel, uranium/Russia deal, hiding foreign donors and funneling their money through a front/bogus organization in Canada in order to skirt U.S. laws, military involvement in Libya and Syria (militarily sticking our nose where it doesn't belong, like the Bush's, probably as a favor to the defense industry who gave money to their campaigns), etc. Corruptions so far & wide, the centrists wouldn't vote for her even when the only alternative was a billionaire fat-cat who has next to nothing in common with everyday Americans. Somebody should build a website that lists all current & upcoming political candidates that shows corruption investigations, charges, convictions they're involved in. A quick list that voters can check and know who to not vote for.

Russian collusion conspiracy card replayed yet again, except this time they're playing it on Tulsi.
I'm hearing that Tulsi Gabbard is anti-establishment and anti-war. Well, it's no wonder then that the DNC are dead-set on interfering with or blocking her nomination.
