Moving to chained cpi — not insisting on continuing to do it wrong, and we’re on SS. But do it with Democratic majorities so we can readjust bennies as needed should the changeover hurt recipients.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Great new Biden ad on sanders' lies about Social Security [View all] Gothmog Mar 2020 OP

This Does Biden No Favors McKim Mar 2020 #1

It's a 30 second ad addressing BS' lies Hav Mar 2020 #3

He has to address it. Ignoring Sanders lies about Biden would be a mistake still_one Mar 2020 #7

Agreed BigOleDummy Mar 2020 #20

Joe is correct because sanders isn't going to stop putting this kind of false stuff out there Thekaspervote Mar 2020 #27

No he won't, and Joe needs to call the lie out for what it is still_one Mar 2020 #45

These lies must be addressed. Only wish he had said "Bernie is lying about me because he's losing." emmaverybo Mar 2020 #50

It IS addressing issues. Orangeanus just said that he will cut SS and medicare benefits. Ferrets are Cool Mar 2020 #8

Attack? You and I must have viewed different ads. Politicub Mar 2020 #34

Do you think Sanders should stop bullshit attacks? NT Happy Hoosier Mar 2020 #43

They won't answer that question. nt Blue_true Mar 2020 #58

He has to take on lies and distortions. Hardly an attack, just setting the record straight. As with emmaverybo Mar 2020 #48

Exactly!! And the ad ignores what Joe actually SAID... so it's a weak attack against Bernie!! InAbLuEsTaTe Mar 2020 #55

But it shows xactly what Bernie said... ehrnst Mar 2020 #85
