As many of you know, I registered as a Democrat to be a political mischief maker on their Primary ticket. Well, with that come phone calls.
After a relatively short song and dance about how great Bernie Sanders is, he got to the point of how Bernie isn't in the millionaire's and lobbyist's pockets. This is where things derailed rapidly for him. "Who is George Soros?" George Soros is the billionare pumping millions into the Clinton campaign. He hasn't donated a thing to Bernie" Okay, but would you agree that moveon.org has paid for many of Bernie Sander's rallies? "Of course, they're a donation.... I cut him off. "Who is moveon.org's biggest contributor?" Well, Um, I really, um...... "George Soros. Do you understand how money laundering works? Well, George Soros is doing something similar using Change.org to fund Bernie." um, ahh, um..... "See, either Bernie is too stupid to realize that, or smart enough to know that know one can know that, am I right?" Well, I can't say how.... I drop the bomb at this point. "I'm going to let you off easy. I am the evil Right Wing Conservative you guys hate, and you stepped into a big dose of reality. I'd love to continue this conversation, but I'm still waiting for a call from the Hillary people because I'm going to have a field day with those cats. Good luck with your calls." ::click:: |

OP don't you understand, voting for Uncle Bernie Santa Claus isn't about facts, it is about feels. And free shit. Actually it is mostly about free shit.
Good trollin'! |

Are you referring to MoveOn.org? I haven't heard of Soros connected to Change.org.
|
|

OP, you are not only clever, but erudite as well.
Your language and conversational skills are extraordinary. Your "transcript" of the conversation proves it. |
|
|
OP, can you cite something to back this up? Not that I don't belive you, but I would love to throw it in the face of an aquaintance who feels a berning in his loins for socialism, simply because ol' Bernie supposedly isn't backed by big money. I would love to burst his little feel-good bubble.

Soros contributed a few million dollars back in 2004, but I haven't seen anything in this election cycle - especially for Sanders. It's bad enough that he's using an organization that has been funded by a billionaire in the past, but I'd really like to drive home the point to Bernie supporters that he is directly funded by a billionaire. |

View Quote +1 Facts matter little to your typical Democratic Supporter [or your typical Democratic Politician for that matter]. For example, I just had a Sanders' supporter try to tell me that he only wanted to ban assault weapons from being sold at gun shows despite me quoting the article where Sanders said, "they should not be sold in the United States of America." I guess to the Sanders' supporter, the USA is just one big gun show. James |

Bernie is nothing more than a sparring partner for Hillary. They are trying to dispel the idea that the DNC has ensured a Hillary coronation, and just for fun, spend a pile of money on the way. They are keeping Bernie on life support to make it look legit. They have the super delegates as insurance, but they would much prefer that she wins the contests so they can make it look fair.

You failed so hard bro.
You supposed to tell the Bernie guy on the phone that he needs to be more progressive on income inequality and taxing the rich. Then tell the Clinton guy on the phone that she needs to take a harder stance on gun control and reducing the size of the military. Tell them both that their candidate has your vote. |

I can't really say how much has been donated because MoveOn.org makes searching their donor list nearly impossible unless you have a day and a half to sort through their entire list of donors, but even liberal sites are referring to MoveOn.org as Georoge Soros backed. |

I found a list on opensecrets.org for the 2016 cycle, but I did not find a donation from Soros. Granted I only looked at the large, restricted donations in the thousands of dollars (since Soros is a billionaire :P). Even if he donated, it's at most $5,000 unless we develop a conspiracy theory.
As for the truth in liberal websites and what they claim, umm, I thought most of GD would consider that an oxymoron ha. |

I was told by a Bernie supporter that Bernie will do socialism better than Hitler . That is scary
|
|
Since there is much extrapolation in this thread without substance, here is something I did find:
http://www.politico.com/story/2016/01/hillary-clinton-george-soros-218494 Politico shows Soros supports Clinton with a total of $8 million. I still have yet to find one news article from a credible source claiming the same for Sanders, which sucks for FaceBook arguments. Hopefully someone out there has some political ammunition backing OP's statement. |

Move On was founded by Hitlery and Clinton supporters as a group to deflect media attention from her husband's scandals as was Media Matters. It's the reason it's called Move On in the first place.
Soros, just like the Rockefeller Brothers, use various foundations and business concerns to funnel money to their candidates. If you own a business and give the max political contribution to each of your employees with instructions to donate then you are still breaking the law but it's harder to prove. A good indicator is when bottom rung employees of a Democrat owned business or foundation, say the cleaning people or the warehouse employees, suddenly have a spare $1200 to donate to a candidate or their foundation. It's the reason you can't trust the whole "Bernie is grass roots supported" BS. |
