Damn Union member...

"Vote for me or be cast into perdition for eternity."

Such a petty and insecure figure would be unworthy of notice, much less a vote.

To what candidate do you refer? Even the Clown/Crazy gang over at GOP don't spout such shit.

Unlike certain mythical figures, I see no value in punishing people who don't believe in me.

So when I see loose talk about Jewish socialists in the context of the current primary season, I am inclined to reply.

No messianic anything.

When the sardonic claim is made that no American would support a socialst Jew (nudge nudge, wink wink), it's preposterous to pretend that it's not an allusion to Jesus.

Obviously Sanders himself would never support such a comparison, but the meme is popular enough that one wonders who the joke is intended to amuse.

support Bernie Sanders.

Regardless of their nominal intent, I find messianic allusions off-putting.

fundamentalist 'christians'.

I like what Gandhi had to say about that:

'I love your Jesus, I just don't like your Christians'.

I think Jesus and Gandhi would approve of Bernie's message!

--similar to that of Jesus. He replied (paraphrasing) "Jesus said that if someone goes to strike you, that you should turn the other cheek. This is Aikido, except that we turn the cheek before being struck."

Someone should photoshop faces of the Koch brothers, HRC's Big Bank Donor CEOs, hedge fund owners (Eaglevale/Mezvinsky), etc. onto that painting.

I don't see people bringing up his being Jewish as a reason why they won't vote for him.

But I guess people probably thought the same about the electability of a candidate who was not white.

much less the fact that he is Jewish.

What would RW do then?

...smear him al la Clinton and Obama. They will have a field day... I'd vote for him, happily, though!

Well, they did. Twice.
