Larry Krasner, Kim Foxx, Kim Ogg, Mark Duppree are all new DAs held up as examples. But yeah they pretty much don't exist in this country.

She threatened jail time to families who let their kids miss more than 100 days of school without documented reason.Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't she threaten the parents with jail time? I can't imagine that wouldn't have some kind of psychological harm on the families and that doesn't really sound progressive to me.
Again, you started this discussion by questioning the fact that her office tried to deny petitions from wrongfully convicted people. Which we both know is true...so why question something we both know to be true?And that's a fair critique to have. There isn't a candidate on that stage who didn't suffer negative consequences to well-meaning proposals.
But that wasn't your original charge against me. I'm aware of Kamala's record, and I'm still a fan of her.
He's a lifelong backbencher. Are we meant to not understand that? Thaddeus Stevens was a backbencher nearly his entire career but he was principled and the nation benefited from men like him with principles when the slavery question finally broke loose.Funny because every issue he purports to care about has gotten significantly worse since he has held political office.

So quick question, how does Andrew Yang not expect landlords to just raise rent prices up to $1000?
I will admit UBI would really come in handy to paying off my car payment lol
I know Larry. He considers Kamala a progressive prosecutor.Larry Krasner, Kim Foxx, Kim Ogg, Mark Duppree are all new DAs held up as examples. But yeah they pretty much don't exist in this country.
We lost tonight
Yup. And the media is trying their damnedest not to mention him. He and Warren won both nights.

I'm not going to criticize someone who stands for principles I agree with strongly, even if in the moment it doesn't look politically practical or whatever.
Only one of those are an AG, unless you are going to mention issues when she was a DA of SF. Lets compare like to like here, Krasner has been on the job for a year so there really isn't much there.Larry Krasner, Kim Foxx, Kim Ogg, Mark Duppree are all new DAs held up as examples.

Yes but you're always skipping leg day. Bernie doesn't skip leg day.im a backbencher, but i top out at 100lbs, strongest back in the neighborhood though i'll guarantee you that
She threatened jail time to families who let their kids miss more than 100 days of school without documented reason.
Hence, why nobody actually went to jail under her policy.
You don't want both on one ticket.
Let's not shade Krasner now :(Only one of those are an AG, unless you are going to mention issues when she was a DA of SF. Lets compare like to like here, Krasner has been on the job for a year so there really isn't much there.

Uh, no.Again, you started this discussion by questioning the fact that her office tried to deny petitions from wrongfully convicted people. Which we both know is true...so why question something we both know to be true?
You are acting like she made some personal decision cause shes an evil asshat. When the reason why it was done is strictly due to the fact that it is on the merits, the law, etc. IF you start allowing people to file six years after expiration you open the flood gates.Yeah she's put innocent people there and then not let them out when proven innocent.

Why not? They're both polling pretty well arent they?
The whole country buys into the program through taxes, including higher taxes on the rich. So the healthcare system doesn't have to worry about people that don't buy in to help offset costs.
When it's a single unity managing all of the healthcare in the country it streamlines a lot of bureaucratic billing processes. It also allows for tougher negotiations with the pharmaceutical industry on drug prices.
This amongst other things.
Not trying to, just saying he has been on the job for a year.Let's not shade Krasner now :(
He's done a great job here considering her has the whole of PA establishment working against him.
No what? That post wasn't referring to you.Uh, no.

Which innocent people did she put in jail?
What are some of the things Krasner has done that mimics the work Kamala has done?I know Larry. He considers Kamala a progressive prosecutor.
In fact, a lot of the changes he's brought to Philly mimic the work she's done in CA.
Damn, Joe spitting error codes lmao
Why not? They're both polling pretty well arent they?
being sent to jail seems unnecessary, but I'm pretty sure that if the same happened in Sweden the police would come pick up the kid and the parents would risk losing custody to social services if they continued to neglect their responsibilities. Don't you have compulsory education in america?
You said: "Can you toss me an example of a progressive AG."
So, is your line of argument is: there is no progressive AG and thus it cannot be expected that she will be/act progressive during her tenure as an AG? That is, you think that the concept of progressiveness and Attorney General are just inherently incompatible with one another?
Not really, I just think if you are an AG of a state for a considerable amount of time you are going to have some things that are going to be able to be dredged up as a hey this person wasn't progressive. I don't know shit about Krasner, I'm willing to bet if he is on the job for six years someone is going to be able to find cases to shit on him. I feel like that is what is happening to Harris.
They aren't hit cases, they decisions made that people disagree with. Yeah most AGs have examples of how they are not progressive because most AGs are not progressive. The system incentivizes prosecutors to behave in ways which harm their communities.Not really, I just think if you are an AG of a state for a considerable amount of time you are going to have some things that are going to be able to be dredged up as a hey this person wasn't progressive.

It's just so obvious for some you people.
This is happening to Krasner right now.Not really, I just think if you are an AG of a state for a considerable amount of time you are going to have some things that are going to be able to be dredged up as a hey this person wasn't progressive.

We're going to see "HE'S NOT EVEN A DEMOCRAT!" soon
I genuinely don't get where this weird personal offense to him even comes from.
Inslee/InsleeWarren/Booker
Warren/Beto
Warren/Castro
Sanders/Harris
I'll take any
The sordid and terrible minds of NeverBernie folksI genuinely don't get where this weird personal offense to him even comes from.
Bernie is too old and appeals to the same type of person as Warren. Anyway Bernie has too big an ego to be VP. Let him stay in the Senate wagging his fingers at people while Warren kicks as as President.
... you're saying Bernie would be VP?
I honestly don't know but it wouldn't be out of "ego"
This is damn near a parody post, if I'm being fucked with right now then honestly: good shit.Look there's clearly a lot of people who dislike Bernie, including me obviously, but everyone likes Warren. So why try to force Bernie down everyone's throats when there's already a perfect candidate that everyone likes?
