35. Nothing "revolutionary" at all with Bernie's "positions"
Fri Mar 20, 2020, 01:24 PM
Mar 2020

Nothing new. Same old recycled stuff.

But we all have fav movies that we think are trendsetting, innovative and pioneering.........while the next person thinks meh.

So we've gone from revolution to "thought revolution". Next week it'll be something else like "misunderstood revolution", and the week after it'll be "ahead of his time revolution".....etc etc etc.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
