6 Days left until Iowa Caucus! Despite the haters, Bernie Surges in the Polls...

Image
  With only 6 days left to the Iowa Caucuses, Bernie Sanders’ campaign has gained official front runner status in Iowan polls. Despite last weeks smears from Hilary Clinton claiming that Senator Sanders is a " career politician" and that "nobody likes him". HRC's gas lighting and hypocrisy is almost laughable. The Sanders Campaign is running on an anti corporate greed platform that has policies centered around the Green New Deal & Medicare for All.

                 Iranian Missiles firing at a U.S. base posted in Iraq,a Ukrainian airliner accidentally shot down in the cold night by Iran forces & a contentious US President over stepping bounds once again while currently being Impeached by the House of Representatives ....One can only help but think that 2020 has officially begun and has arrived hot & heavy. With Foreign Policy as a National discussion and with a 2020 Election underway, American's have voiced their disapproval and disinterest on going into another War,particularly with Iran. But after the US claimed responsibility for killing Iran's 2nd top General  Qasem  Soleimani on January 3rd  by missile strike near  Baghdad International Airport , war seemed almost imminent. S ocial media accounts since last Friday have been re-posting video spoofs of what modern day comedians like Haha Davis & DC Young Fly deem a parody of their "Thoughts goi...
