But now it’s revealed that a mere day later she’s now accepting money from a super pac known as Persist Super PAC.Oh god Warren what happened to you?
I think you’re being a bit unfair to her here. Unless I missed something new about them, their support of her is with advertising, not directly giving money to her campaign. Also, it’s not like she set the thing up herself. Persist formed to support her in spite her past statements opposing such things, and, like all super PACs, can go ahead with advertising for her with or without her agreeing to it. Yes, it’s a bit disappointing that she hasn’t come out and specifically spoken against their support, but it’s not like she walked out on stage and started singing their praises either.

If he was a millionaire for being a business person that would be more respectful. Bloomberg earned his fortune.

everyone earn their fortune, or at least, almost, the rest is just moral, which is a personal point of view.
if I say Bill Gates, Zuckerberg, Jobs, Bezos and co. are complete frauds without soul, some people actually praises that. «y u no buy an iphone? technolodge is gud!»

somebody earned the fortune. If their parents made it and gave it to them then it is their parent’s right to do so. Bernie Sander’s made his money mostly from working for the government a d book deals (which sold because of his position in government). He still earned it, but I consider that less resoectful then Bloomberg, a man who made money moatly by finding a need in the financial sector and fulfilling it.

I didn’t say I was mad, I specifically said it was their parents right to pass that money on. I’m saying Bloomberg himself earned his fortune though. I haye the guy, he’s an authoritarian anti gun asshole, but I can respect the man for what he has accomplished.

Indeed he’s a complete dick, but what does their million or billions have to do with anything? You’re not voting for the richest, you guys are voting for the candidate that represents your interests.
Yes, technically that Bloomberg guy, ex-banker, billionaire into finance and all is the equivalent of our Macron. You don’t want a guy like this.

Bloomberg is like Trump but more polite. Something I would not vote for.

something i never dared asking to american democrats, if Sanders isn’t the candidate and Bloomberg, through all means of corruption passes, flooding the media with millions in campaign and all, who are you going to vote for?

Not to be “that guy”, but this cycle may really not be the best to try out third party / protest voting… At least not for congress; even if you loathe Bloomberg as much as Trump (or more), should still vote for representatives.

Third party is always the viable choice when the two powerhouses (Democrats and Republicans) are shit. Hell, I bet 2016 would’ve been a better year if more people voted a third party.

The only Dem I might have voted for was Tulsi. Libertatians have not picked a candidate yet so depending on that I might vote Trump.

Well Bernie is most likely going to win the DNC nomination if he keeps his stride, so I’m voting for him obviously. He’s the only good candidate. If he loses I just won’t vote.

Cool.
Because more people should vote third party when their candidates lose.

See I may not know much but a third party is on the ticket for a reason. Most people just vote on democrat and Republican. As for me, I want to vote for Democrat looks at Bernie but incase he loses, I’m voting for a third party because I don’t like both parites.

Indeed, there’s more candidates than just Trump and Sanders/Bloomberg, the question you should ask remains who will put the spotlight on like, Howie Hawkings or Gary Johnson? There’s the choice and there certainly are other candidate than two to oppose Trump, but it’s already like the media have designated who will be the next president. How can a democracy be possible with that.
