>> Sanders, a 73-year-old self-described democratic socialist, is trying to appeal to the most liberal Democrats with his message of raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour

Meanwhile, the Washington Post today actually admitted the minimum wage kills jobs.

washingtonpost.com

And Puerto Rico themselves have admitted it, by trying to push through CUTS to the minimum wage.

Shit, I think PR's economists are brighter than Obama's.

Very scary..10K who all think just like Rat. Last time that happened,



plus SF and my office, the first 3 towns south of SF. Close, but just not quite close enuf.

I just can't seeing him surviving a general where R's spend 6 months and $1B convincing people his gay parents were Fidel and Stalin.

The basis of Sander's appeal is he isn't Hillary.

Of course, he only goes to places where there are a lot of liberal wingers.
