"Process crime" is a term invented by these Trump crooks to try to minimize the fact that they're all a bunch of crooks. It's pretty funny. The sleazy idiots and Fox News invented a phrase!

You are sleaze just by the demeanor and rhetoric displayed with each new post.....

Poor .....Poor..... Rodent.
 
It's funny, I know the Washington Post put this on the cover of their front page because it's meant to be a hit piece on Schultz. But to me, that they didn't bother to research any statistics about income, crime, schools- or go much beyond quotes about how he grew up in the "country club of the projects" tells me how scary he is to the entrenched elites and their game of dividing and conquer the masses.

Howard Schultz says he grew up in a poor, rough place. Others called it the ‘country club of projects.’

Hit piece? It is only a hit piece if Schultz wants to get people to think he grew up in the Bronx of the 1970's.

Let's see, the place was not a federally funded housing project but a city built middle income project with minimum income needed.
He moved there the year it was built, with playgrounds and everything nice and new.
People were actively trying to get to live there as a great place to live.
Residents that actually lives there when he did refute claims that it was dangerous or rough. In fact they say it was nice and safe.




Howard is selling a story like all politicians do. He is getting caught in the fable part of it and he is not used to that kind of limelight. I doubt he survives this kind of scrutiny.

The same way Bernie Sanders ruined his reputation talking about his tough Brooklyn upbringing? Funny, no front page article in the WP on that...

Umm, because maybe Bernie has shown pride for his Brooklyn beginnings and gives praise to the neighborhood, schools and local culture. Maybe because he did not try to weave a fable that others so easily could refute. Maybe because he is smarter, more truthful and a better candidate.

That others can so easily refute? With a couple of quotes and zero research! lol... too funny.

I just think we've come to a point where we need to be honest the Democratic party hasn't groomed new leaders or have any new ideas. And in fact has wasted the last decade fawning over Obama as he let vast numbers of State, Local, Congressional (at the national level) and Supreme Court Seats fall into Republican hands. Or how they fall all over themselves hero worshiping people like Ruth G Ginsberg, whose entire legacy will be wiped out if her ego about not resigning her seat ends with Trump filling her with another Right-wing Supreme Court Justice. Then, if you read the Washington Post, the Dem plan is rather then come up with quality legislation or messages... to just redistribute the wealth.

Maybe you're okay with that... but I'm tired of excuses and losing. I want a winner and it's time I think to accept that the Dem's likely won't provide one.

In public policy and politics. Beto. How many campaigns has Howard run?
Click to expand...

Beto won a seat as a state representative for two years and then lost a Senate race to Lyn' Ted. Howard built one of the most successful business in America, and spent his life balancing budgets and managing and army of employees...

That said, I am interested in hearing what Beto has to say, he could still get my vote. But he's going to have to prove he's not just another "pretty face."

Howard chose a direction for his life and was very successful. Much like Bloomberg. Those skills don't naturally slide over to POTUS. His hubris is thinking they do. I am not backing Beto or any other candidate at this point. Beto lacks one key element I am using as a bias point for this election.

Can you point to an article were Bernie stated he made it out of the projects to aspire beyond his upbringing? I don't think so.

Okay, let's have a conversation about Bernie's background. I think a lot of people don't realize that Hillary used the kid's gloves on him because she was worried about losing the progressive vote back in 2016. Somehow I doubt his background is what you think it is...

Honestly I don't know who I'm going to vote for either. So I'm defaulting to HS as a protest vote, til one of the Dems can show me they deserve my vote.

Well, I spent 15 minutes getting to know Bernie better by reading this article. What drama was I supposed to get from that 15 minutes?
