"Stent" is a very good word to say with a Bernie Sanders voice.
Bernie Sanders has emergency heart surgery, has cancelled campaign stops and is resting (UP: released, was a heart attack)

So?
Also, I'm not sure about the examiner or care. I googled it and it was a top result along with maaaaaaany other sources. Take your pick lol
LOL that was a fast turn around. Bernie reads Era Confirmed
I agree. It's too risky for Bernie to campaign now.
The most important thing, is for Bernie to have the surgery & for him to have a good recovery.
He's a fighter and he's still the right person for the job, but he has to do what is best for himself. And I don't know how bad the blockage was and if there was any damage to his heart.
America still needs him and his ideas.
Ah, fucking goddamn no. Bernie get well soon mate, for your sake, just take it easy and don't do anything that's gonna put yourself in harm's way. You know this must be a little bit devastating for him, the man is in the game for the best possible reasons and this all but seals his campaign's fate. Fantastic human being and a model of the good politician. If he directly leads to the nomination and eventual presidency of Warren, then it will be undeniable that his work dragged the democratic party to the left, albeit marginally compared to what he personally stood for.
No doubt a lot of his voters are about to migrate to Warren... you can see it in this thread. That migration might just seal her the nomination.

Nah the ones on this thread always had Warren over Bernie anyways. I doubt he will lose much of his current support.
I don't think they'll be on the same ticket, but I do think Bernie is going to drop out and endorse Warren sooner rather than later.
Man, if he faked his death with a paragliding stunt, he would ream the airwaves.
I hope he makes speedy recovery! Out of all the democratic candidates, he definitely has the most credos in terms of being left wing to a degree recognisable in Europe.
I would absolutely prefer a younger candidate if they took similar positions, but out of the lot, forget the media circus, the world needs radical action, and while even Bernie's proposals are not enough, they are ahead of any of the others. That is what is needed period. the stakes are that fecking high

What a lovely woman, actually teared up for some reason listening to that. Really rooting for her and Bernie
Yea I know, it's just a long line of people magically using far right media sources to attack other people on the left. It's no different than citing shit from fox news, the motive in why something is being written is clear as day.
It's a relief to hear he made it through the surgery OK. Campaigning as much as he does isn't easy. Hope he gets the rest he needs before throwing himself back into it.
He is a strong and basically unique voice in American politics and having him in the campaign is good for the country.

Glad to know he's already feeling better. This is only going to strengthen his campaign. Dude is a juggernaut in every sense.
Also concern trolling over this is ranging mildly disgusting to mask-off ageist horse shit so we can cease with that any time thanks

Either her or Bernie. I don't care. They should be the only 2 candidates left for the primaries. Everyone else doesn't matter.
I don't think you are reading into it correctly. He is saying struggle fighting for equality, not that he has some life long struggle say a PoC or an LBGTQ person may have which is how I assumed you read it. Correct me if I'm wrong though.
I definitely expect this, assuming Bernie is well enough at this point.
You do know Sanders has a history that goes farther back than 2016..... right?
1. I'm not mad
2.. I understand that.
Impossible to say without more info. Personally, I think it's likely. Probably went to the hospital with chest pain and further testing either showed elevated troponins (generally indicative of a heart attack) and/or EKG changes (would could be a heart attack or just ischemia [lack of blood flow] to the heart muscle - which if prolonged can lead to a heart attack).
Good stuff from Snowden. Guy deserves to come home and be free.
