[REUTERS] Venezuela's embattled president, Nicolas Maduro, said on Tuesday night he supported Bernie Sanders ...The only openly Socialist member of the U.S. Senate. Sanders was Representative-for-Life from Vermont until moving to the Senate for the rest of his life in 2006, assuming the seat vacated by Jim Jeffords... in the U.S. presidential race, adding that the candidate, who describes himself as a democratic socialist, would win if the vote were "free."
Maduro, a socialist who sees himself as the political heir to his predecessor, Hugo Chavez, has long railed against the United States, blaming it for Venezuela's economic crisis and accusing Washington of attempting to topple him.
"Bernie Sanders, our revolutionary friend, ought to win in the United States," Maduro said during an hours-long televised broadcast.
"If the elections were free ... Bernie Sanders would be president of the United States," he said, criticizing the U.S. Electoral College system as unrepresentative of popular sentiment.

You know, that headline reads something completely different

Bernie's socialist model (where other productive citizen's wealth is confiscated and given to others who are not), similar to the one Venezuela uses hasn't ever worked out well.

Trump endorsed by a crazy dictator
Sanders endorsed by a socialist loon
Takes one to know one?

Yasser Arafat would have endorsed the delightful Mrs.Clinton, but he is finding it hard to get an outside line from his room in Hell. Moammar Khaddafy had no comment.
[Law Newz] Donald Trump has undoubtedly made the class action lawsuit against Trump University a campaign issue. For the last several days, he has been on a tear against federal Judge Gonzolo Curiel who is overseeing one of the class action lawsuits against Trump University. In the lawsuit, former students claim that the University and Trump violated federal law by luring them to sign up with false promises and then defrauded them once they handed over their checks.
The judge is also a member of LaRaza...
LawNewz.com discovered that when it comes to politics, Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd, the law firm behind the class action lawsuit, is not exactly neutral either. Our analysis, using data first compiled by The Washington Post, found that Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd paid the Clintons a total of $675,000 in fees for speeches since 2009. Hillary Clinton gave a $225,000 speech at the law firm as recently as September 4, 2014. Bill Clinton also gave a speech for the same fee back in 2013, and another one in 2009 before the firm had been renamed (they used to be called Coughlin Stoia Geller Rudman & Robbins LLP). In fact, of the five law firms that paid for the Clintons to speak over the last few years, Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd paid out the most money.

Taking money, leaving students in debt. So, what's difference between Trump's paper mill and hundreds of public and private universities and colleges across the nation? None.

The real scandal is the way the government backs student loans the same as they did with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. They give massive amounts of money to students who would never be qualified by reputable banks based on the students' potential to repay.

"Who do you love?" asked Bo Diddley in song. Perhaps the more important question in this crazy election season is "Who do you hate?"
...As many people are likely to come to the polls this fall to vote against the candidate they dislike as to vote for a candidate they support What would Lazarus Long say?

Please correctly if I'm wrong, but iirc, Obama was ahead around or near double digits at this time four years ago, and then we saw a panic on the Left as it narrowed to a couple digits just before election day. If he's within a couple digits today and yet to let lose the fight that Trunks refused to engage in four years ago, this is going to be entertaining. Pass the popcorn.
[Gateway Pundit] Barack Obama: If we turn against each other based on division of race or religion. If-if-if-if-if-if-if-if-if-if-if we fall for, you know, a bunch of okie-doke, just because, you know it-it-it. You know, it-it-it-it-it-it sounds funny or the tweets are provocative.

Damn, Barry, if you're gonna play the race card at least don't stammer like such an idiot while you're doing it. Did your teleprompter freeze, or what?

Iowahawk had a great video message from the Teleprompter to POTUS a few years back -- I think during the 2008 campaign. You can find it on the web.

He sounded like Max Headrom during a computer glitch. The TelePrompTer must have been hijacked by a ten year old. And the talking head just followed.

Didn't Prince suffer from a strange stutter and jerking shoulder toward the end as well ?

Mr. B that is my belief if not now later. Clinton had his women and O has his drugs. He can't quit his smoking habit now. We will see. They will still give him a pass. So that makes it that much harder to quit.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
