Dear Americans,

Is Hillary Clinton's worst nightmare about to happen all over again?

Eight years ago, she lost the Iowa Democratic primary to Obama. She then won the New Hampshire primary, but by such a slim margin that the electoral delegate prize was divided evenly. If Bernie Sanders gets more than 55% of New Hampshire next Tuesday -- very possible because it's next door to his home state of Vermont -- Hillary will be right back where she started!

I am a Bernie supporter. Twenty years ago I would have been a die hard Hillary supporter. But the middle class has lost huge amounts of ground in the last 20 years and the status quo is no longer good enough - for me anyway. My family went from almost free college (for my husband and myself at UC Berkeley) to paying through the nose for 3 kids. Not to mention what has happened (or NOT happened to the minimum wage)

So this - much older - woman is voting for Bernie.

Go Bernie - Nevada is in 4 days. I hope the trend continues.

Jon once said his friendships were apolitical, right?!

How else can he financially support Hillary at the same time?

Hey guys. I just wanted to say that even if Bernie Sanders wins and he makes the US a socialist state and the lower class people get more money, most of them will still be poor. I say this because since my first year of high school I started becoming more observant of how smart adults really are, how they spend their money and I've noticed that the people who were the most poor were the most stupid also. At the end of the month when they get their salary, they don't have a plan on how to spend their money, they buy cigarettes,beer,wine, expensive food, eat at restaurants, they also buy cars with big engines that they can't really afford just to show everyone how "rich" they are etc. and by the end of the month they are broke and keep complaining that the salaries are to small.

I'm not saying that if you vote for Bernie you are stupid, I'm just trying to point out the fact that most people who are very poor are the way they are because they are very dumb and tend to make bad decisions throughout their life.

Also I don't think that it's the big companies that have a problem with paying bigger taxes, I think it's the smaller companies that have a problem with that. For example L.A Fitness can afford bigger taxes, but the guy who opened a local,smaller gym can't.

But in the end what I'm saying probably doesn't apply in the US since I don't really know how stuff works there.

Speaking from personal experience, I always wonder how my personal friends who are on disability--very limited incomes--are also my friends who smoke, drink, and have I-phones. They WILL have their cigarettes, beer, and fancy phones every month, but then talk about not having money for groceries. They already get free healthcare. Meanwhile, I'm getting stuck with $1200 bills for just seeing a doctor and struggling with payment plans and shit like that. There's no money in MY budget for a cigarette, beer, (not that I want either) or an I-phone--that's for sure.

Unfortunately that's a horribly twisted and elitist way at looking at the world - it's not black and white like that. Every individual has a unique situation, and some things are out of our control. People are born into poverty, given poor advice, or just plain unlucky. And on the other hand, not all those with wealth have worked hard to attain it.

The world is an unjust place, and it's our duty to make the most of it and help each other out - not judge why others are doing it tougher than us.

Dude, you're 19. Do your observations of adults really warrant that strong a statement?

Also... it's not stupid per se. If you grow up in an environment that favors such behavior, you tend to pick it up too (survival of the fittest). It's the habitat that forms the habitus. But in other environments, it will most likely hold them back.
