Bernie Sanders: Democrats Need to Move Beyond ‘I’m a Woman, Vote For Me’

No shit

Hillary playing the sex card multiple times and her supporters smearing anybody that didn't support her as sexist was a major reason to meme against the witch

It is not good enough for somebody to say, 'I'm a woman, vote for me.'

Maybe Bernie isn't such a sell-out after all!

"What we need is a woman who has the guts to stand up to Wall Street..."

Or a man, Bernie. Or a man.

For too little far too late.

Democrats are not learning their lessons. The doubling down on calling Trump and his supporters every feminist name in the book just shows how detached from reality Democrats are. Unless they get de-programmed from feminist delusions, they always be deluded.

He is right, the MRM and other advisors told her that but she was never going to listen. Part of the reason she lost. Hilary Clinton was about male hate not just ignoring men:

1) Only food aid after Haiti earthquake was given to females, as arranged by Hilary Clinton.

2) She did nothing to stop little boys being raped in Afghanistan and told the military to turn a blind eye.

3) She said the main victims of war were women because their men folk died in battle.

They wander why men did not vote for her.

If he can be an anti identity politics progressive, he will win in 2020 by a landslide.

Now the man says it, he could have said it in the primary where it mattered.

"if you are a white male, you don't know what it is to be poor"

But guys, one of her merits is she's a woman!

He isn't wrong, and at least he's come out and said what he thinks, unlike many other Dems. It really is well past the time when mainstream (small 'd') social democratic parties gave away their obsession with identity politics and started giving a fuck about those anonymous millions struggling to get by instead.

To those here saying wtte "too little too late" and "well you would say that now, wouldn't you", what did you expect Bernie to do? He lost the nomination race (blame the powerful cliques in the Dems for that) so he was more or less duty-bound to STFU and not rock the boat until the result of the election was in, lest he be accused of white-anting.

I think there's a lot of Progressives that are in the closet about identity politics. People like Bernie Sanders who likely feel it's gone way too far, but because of their position, speaking out before the time is right would be career suicide. Thankfully for Bernie, he's 75 and Trump just destroyed Hillary, so now is a perfect time for him to speak out. I wouldn't be surprised to see more people come out. Look at all the Leftist professors coming out against identity politics.

On a side note, I really want Trump to make Bernie the Labor Secretary if he'd take the position.

In other news, water is wet

Do you really think the Dems are going to be running a female candidate again any time soon?

trampson · 2016-11-22T10:45:55+00:00

Well fucking duh, Bernie, you feminist hypocrite.

“It is not good enough for somebody to say, ‘I’m a woman, vote for me.’ That is not good enough,” Sanders said. “What we need is a woman who has the guts to stand up to Wall Street, to the insurance companies, to the drug companies, to the fossil fuel industries.”

Warren said "No".

Prometheus444 · 2016-11-22T00:40:25+00:00

No shit. Tell that to all the idiots who supported you.

ThePigmanAgain · 2016-11-21T23:19:43+00:00

Now he says it...

Are they capable of doing this, is the question we should be asking them.
