a future to believe in

Ann Coulter feeling the Bern? The conservative commentator says Sanders has supported immigration policies that could earn him her vote, adding she’d be willing to overlook “the rest of the socialist stuff.” pic.twitter.com/8vH4LAWmVP

Да, наравно, али такође - естрада. Политика је у Америци пре свега забава, ту све врви од ликова попут ове несрећнице или Била Мејера, који је тобож на другој страни спектра а дотична му не избива из студија... Нико бре више не чита никакве новине нити гледа праве вести, сви се “информишемо” код Ное и Рејчел Медоу. И на крају ти Председник буде Трампара. Па логично је.

When Sanders was first elected mayor, Bookchin was excited, pointing out the “ten anarchist votes” that put Sanders over the top, according to a biography of him by his companion and student Janet Biehl. Bookchin saw in Sanders the potential seeds of a movement that could integrate his anarchist ideals of non-domination with his belief in the essential sociality of humankind—ultimately producing a kind of town meeting–based model of governance. While Sanders was not the ambitious intellectual synthesizer that Bookchin was, he had always advocated for greater public participation in governance as well. 
But the two left reformers soon split, not just over the GE protests, but also over Sanders’s advocacy for a plan to develop the Burlington waterfront that a group of businessmen put forward in 1985. Sanders had earlier campaigned against a prior waterfront development plan, and so his seeming reversal on the question sparked some of the hardest left-wing criticism of his tenure.
Sanders’s detractors formed a protest group to oppose the plan—among its leaders were Bookchin’s former wife, Bea, and Sandra Baird, a former Liberty Union member. One of its slogans—“Our waterfront is still not for sale!”—echoed Sanders’s own insurgent campaign motto: “Burlington is not for sale!”
As the bond measure to fund the plan went down in defeat, Bookchin condemned Sanders for “collusion with business interests.” Left-wing activists had been at odds with Sanders before on issues like the GE plant, but the bond measure was the first time Sanders had lost a battle against forces largely from his left—only a Republican ward had voted in strong numbers for the plan. (Today the waterfront is home to a large park and a bike path. Sanders would launch his 2016 presidential campaign there.)

Like a football coach rallying his team before a game, Cunningham said Republicans who run to the right to embrace Trump are “ceding more and more ground in the middle”.

“There is so much middle ground to gain in 2020,” he shouted. “I say we take it!”

“I believe a gay midwestern mayor can beat [Donald] Trump. I believe an African American senator can beat Trump. I believe a western governor, a female senator, a member of Congress, a Latino Texan or a former vice-president can beat Trump,” said Jon Cowan, president of Third Way, hours before Donald Trump formally launched his re-election campaign with a rally in Orlando, Florida, on Tuesday.

“But I don’t believe a self-described democratic socialist can win.”

In speeches and on panels over the course of two sticky days in Charleston earlier this week, moderate lawmakers, strategists and donors inveighed against the Vermont senator’s populist economic vision. The approach elevated a conversation that has largely taken place behind closed doors about how to thwart Sanders, who moderates believe would alienate crucial voting blocs in a general election.

“He has made it his mission to either get the nomination or to remake the party in his image as a democratic socialist,” Cowan told the Guardian. “That is an existential threat to the future of the Democratic party for the next generation.”
