You'll forgive me as I chuckle about a 16 year US House member, on his second US Senate term, rail against "establishment politics".

Twenty years in DC? You're establishment, whether you know it or not.

Even if that's true, does it affect the way you see his positions? Are they "establishment"?

Mr. Obama wasn't "establishment" (first term Senator) and he fell right in line. As far as Mr. Sanders' positions, they aren't worth my time. I won't be voting for him. I suspect the larger population won't be either. The establishment will ultimately thunder down and "Mrs. C" will be on the November 2016 ballot.

I'm surprised the media hasn't picked up on the "Mrs. C" thing, a veiled reference to the much loved television mom of "Ritchie and Joanie Cunningham".

Not that list. If you want to raise the dead, there's Goldwater and further to the center, Ronnie.

I wish Goldwater could run now. He's everything this field is not.

Where have you gone, Robert Taft? A party turns its lonely eyes to you.

Obummer was the Bilderberg candidate. He attended in 2008, where he received his orders on what to do with the country. Pay very close attention to the meeting in 2016. If a Presidential candidate attends, I would put money on that person winning.

Really? I thought he was still #1 with a bullet. Who's the new Bloviator-in-Chief?

Edit: from this it look like he is still King Derp.

He's probably still on top of that steaming pile, but I saw a story recently how the big stations in major markets like NYC & LA have been steadily not renewing his lucrative contracts and in order to keep the claim alive that he's broadcasting in every market, he's been forced to sign on with tiny signals in those cities at a fraction of the price he used to command. No doubt a lot of it has to do with the splintering of media via the web, same as newspapers and the evening news, but a lot also has to do with the various scandals (remember "The media is desirous that a black quarterback do well" and the giant backlash? He doesn't get the deep-pocketed sponsors anymore) Also his targets haven't been as scandalous as Slick Willie was back in the day. Our current president is too dignified to be much fun, although "Dingy Harry" et al still provide some good laughs.

Cool. Thanks. I always wondered what the political mirror to InfoWars.com was --> Globalist and corporatists are running everything. Check. Either both are sane ... or not.

RT doesn't really count -- they're not "left" they're just Putin's mouthpiece, so they'll put on anybody who has unkind things to say.

The political mirror is probably AlterNet.
