I think "working to make sure the entire political process is revamped to work for the American people instead of the wealthy" is going a bit far. Considering the Lincoln Project is funded by donations, I highly doubt they would do much regarding campaign finance reform. HoshiReed's comment is on the money in the sense that it would be easy for them to support Bernie because they know they don't much to have much to worry about regarding Bernie's policy agenda even if he were elected.* Call me cynical, but I'm not sure how effective the Lincoln Project is aside from tapping into the Democratic grassroots donors that were pouring millions of dollars into even hopeless cause races like Amy McGrath's against Mitch McConnell. However, I do support efforts to purge the GOP of the demagogues, fear mongerers, and peddlers of misinformation. I just don't think the Lincoln Project is it. The Senate run-off in Georgia was proof that the most effective way to change our politics is for individuals to do the hard work on the ground to convince people to get off the sidelines. *Bernie is a traditionalist who dismisses calls for eliminating the filibuster- among other things. I think the only thing I agree with Ann Coulter on is that Bernie isn't worrisome for Republicans since he'd never get anything done, but Elizabeth Warren on the other hand...😉

Hey you Biden supporters you need to step back for a moment and bear in mind that is your candidate has not denied the authenticity of the damning emails in Hunter’s laptop! It is your responsibility to not be willfully ignorant. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OquVOwgW9wI.html The mainstream media is doing everything that it can to demonize president Trump while at the same time protecting the Democratic candidate by refusing to circulate stories about the Biden family corruption that was revealed in Hunter Biden's abandoned laptop. Ever since Joe Biden became vice-president the net worth of the Biden family went from zero to millions! How does a politician manage to amass a fortune while living on a civil servant salary? Bribes and kickbacks, that’s how! The Bidens now live in million dollar mansions, they have domestic servants, they are members of the most exclusive country clubs, they travel in private planes. Whenever Joe Biden traveled to a foreign country in the role of vice-president he would bring along one of his brothers or sons who acted as “bag men” for the bribe/kickback money that he would receive so that the money could not be traced directly to him. Hunter Biden, for example, got a payoff of three million dollars and a seat on the board of Burisma even though he has no experience or knowledge about the energy industry or even speak the Ukranian language! Yet, in spite of all of the evidence contained in his abandoned laptop the mainstream media has remained silent about it. The left is now the American Taliban. Despite claiming to be morally superior, anti-racist, and anti-sexist, they are completely intolerant, vengeful, and hateful of any infidel or apostate who dares to say or do anything that criticizes Joe Biden or that does not support their fundamentalist Marxist narrative. Of course, they do this out of a profound sense of enlightened, virtue signaling, compassion. Total hypocrites. "To find out who is ruling over you, find out who you are not allowed to criticize" -- Voltaire. Cato I advised our founding fathers “Vote the measure and not the man” so you all need to vote Republican and throw the Democrat rascals out! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iu3Vrte0qQ8.html

This question reveals how much many Americans, like the reporter, are used to think in teams and "my team, right or wrong". She's astounded that the Lincoln project guys think in principles instead which shows how rare this way of thinking is. That's really bad. While being loyal to your team is important, being loyal to your principles should always come first. If you're not, it always leads to trouble because you start denying or hushing up problems with your team. Instead of calling them out (to get your team back on the right track). Look how Trump spins every criticism of anything in the US as "Democrats tell people to hate this country". How would you expect the US to keep getting better if you're not allowed to point out things that need improvement? That's why so many people say the US is the best country on earth when it's clearly not by almost all metrics - denial.

Of course the answer from the right isn't to take advantage of the "greatest economy of all time" and get serious about responsible spending, but to fully fund the government at pre-sequestration levels, get nothing to show for it and when a democrat is in office again they will focus on cutting social programs "because they're fiscally responsible." And look, I fell for their pitch about how they are the "conservative ones" and responsible...if you look at the debt going back to Reagan there is one common theme...the debt explodes under Republican Presidents, the tax cuts never create jobs or "trickle down", the wage gap has grown nearly 40 fold and under Democratic Presidents we've done well...especially when you consider that they typically take over a poor economy with massive debt. The numbers don't lie.

This made me so sad. Never imagined I would consider college might not make sense for my own kid. It used to be the ticket to elevate as descendants of immigrants, not so anymore. Don't even get me started on the 5 gran a year I pay for employer health insurance premiums but I have no actual healthcare and missing teeth.

With Biden, he was too busy remembering how he was friends with the guy. He didn’t go after him properly. He should’ve pulled out all the stops. He could learn a thing or two from these guys.

richard bloor: Isn't that the truth.

Since Regan, the middle of American political debate has moved so far to the right that traditional Democratic Party ideas have been lost. Where is the actual defense of the front line working man? Where is the defensed of labor's right to organize into unions? Actual challenge to the incarceration of so much of our population. I'm not radical, but my politics are to the left of most of Bernie's stated stands on issues. My real problem with Bernie Sanders is that he is really an unskilled politician. Anyone can bray about a recognized problem: very few can see the problem and build a collision to create a way to fix the problem. As unoriginal a thinker as Biden is, with how milk toast his 'liberalism' is, he is still a likeable guy, and has shown an ability to move enough people in power to accomplish some positive acts of legislation. It is a valuable skill, one we are really going to need during his term in office.

From my perspective, there are a few Lincoln Republicans in my very conservative Lancaster County PA, but I am amazed at the lack of critical thinking by many people. They believe Trump’s sales pitch hypnosis and I am confused why they can’t see that his behaviors are clearly in his own interests and he doesn’t care about our country, our laws or our people. Look how many people think we shouldn’t be wearing masks in public! Would you want your surgeon going mask-less while you’re on the operating table? Masks reduce transmission! They are for others safety as well as your own. This is actually a sociopathic recommendation by Trump and he ignores all of deaths and suffering he has brought to our country. Selfish people should not be president, remember the golden rule!

To all of the commenters who write “these aren’t Republicans” or “they’re just a bunch of grifters”, I can assure you without knowing any of the four men interviewed that you’re dead wrong. As a lifelong progressive Democrat, I will be enthusiastically casting my vote for Biden-Harris in the upcoming General Election. Biden wasn’t my top pick or even in my top five, but his positions on the issues, his record and his character easily match my own preferences. In contrast, if Sanders were the nominee, I’d have put a clothespin on my nose and done my duty to vote for him but, in reality, that would be a vote against Trump and nothing more. These men regard Biden and Sanders as completely fungible candidates. That’s not my view, but it’s a view I now understand from watching this video and it’s a view I respect.

I think Bernie is too left while Biden is a moderate. Those who have been indoctrinated by Trump have learned to hate and suspect as total evil some of Bernie's policies which would have caused votes. Personally, I liked most of the Democratic candidates but it is a matter of who could best beat Trump and I think a moderate is essential for it best pulls in Independents and center Republicans. This race is actually pretty close. Hilary's lead meant nothing on election day. It could go the same way for Biden. What I'm saying is this is no time to gamble. We need the Senate too. Four states are a toss up right now, leaning blue but could easily go the other way on election day.

No, I don't think so. Historically, fascists always beat socialists in elections. Biden is the perfect candidate simply because he isn't too far left.

If Biden was branded by Trump as an socialist, I don't know what they will call Bernie.

Bernie couldn’t win a primary. I like Bernie but he doesn’t have enough people backing him. The right person with the same ideals as him will come along.

2:05 “He’s (referring to Bernie Sanders) not un-American.” That’s coming from a very conservative person. They can appreciate Bernie as a faithful, respectful senator who would have made a great president, even if they disagreed entirely with his agenda.
