[QUOTE="YukonGlocker, post: 2765099, member: 425"] I certainly don't agree with Bernie on all the issues. However, he is an anomaly...the most honest politician one could ask for...he has a long voting record to prove it. He doesn't support all out gun bans (and has voted against them), but does support some gun control measures. He's Jewish with many socialist viewpoints (just as Jesus was/is). However, he's really an Independent, and it shows because he doesn't have a strict socialist or liberal or progressive platform. He's an odd 3rd partier because he doesn't fit in any nice political category/stereotype/box you may have. He's supported military personnel and veterans like no other, and has worked tirelessly to obtain support for them in various ways. He's the only candidate where I have some Democrat friends, some Republican friends, and some "other" friends who are all supporting him (never happened in my lifetime, at this scale), and is capturing interest like wildfire. He practices what he preaches, and always has. When I line up all the issues, there isn't a Republican or Democrat running that represents me as an individual (probably because I'm neither), but Bernie definitely matches more issues than anyone else. I struggle with the gun control issue, but I get some comfort by knowing that rarely does one individual (i.e., the President) make laws of such magnitude...they usually require votes by large bodies of representatives. I think at this point in time, Bernie would be great for our country. I hope like hell he beats Clinton so we don't have to worry about her getting into office; then I'll take a hard look at who his Republican opponent will be; but at this point, I hope he goes all the way.
