Epoch Times:
Senator Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) claimed during the recent Democratic presidential primary debate that equating his socialist policies to those of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro was “extremely unfair.”
Sanders was responding to a question from moderator Jorge Ramos, known for his vocal opposition to Maduro’s oppressive regime. Ramos and his five-person crew were arrested and detained for hours in Venezuela in February for asking the country’s dictator uncomfortable questions. They were then kicked out of the country and had their equipment confiscated.
On Thursday, Sept. 12, during the ABC News Democratic debate, Ramos asked Sanders to explain how the 2020 presidential hopeful’s “democratic socialism” differed from the socialism that has brought Venezuelan society to collapse. read more

Bernie is toast:
Maduro called the Democratic candidate (Bernie) “our revolutionary friend”, Bernie took the wrong side in this failed socialist country.
Maduro said Trump could be elected because he “is using a force for change hidden in U.S. society” (Maduro was actually pretty smart)

“… and (Bernie) praising communist China for making “more progress in addressing extreme poverty than any country in the history of civilization,”
Well, yeah, if you murder millions of your poor people, you do tend to make progress against poverty.
Ah yes unfair.
A socialist whining about fairness–how absolutely socialist.
Did I miss the part where Bernie was awarded the Nobel Prize for perfecting socialism (“My socialism”)? If I did, I offer my apologies for thinking the poor fellow feckless and as dumb as a mud fence.
All those other dictators were pikers, put me in charge, you will see socialism like never before.
Yeahhhhhhh Wally, how bad could it possibly be with an old, angry Commie bastard in charge?
Well Beave, we already got a taste of it with a young maladroit, fundamentally-transforming Marxist Muzlim Mallard Bastard in charge!
“Bernie, if it walks like a duck, smells like a duck, and quacks like a duck, why isn’t it a duck?”
You commie retard bastard.
Does anyone else see Big Bird every time he talks?
Hey Bernie,
You naive old fool! Here is where you just don’t get it:
In your feeble mind you have socialism perfected. But that perfection relies on everyone else having the same belief.
But your “perfect” socialism is destined to fail. If you are elected someone in your cabinet will want power and will do whatever is necessary to get rid of you (think Stalin and Lenin). That person NEVER had the same idea as you of the “perfect” socialism, only lust for power. Once you are dispatched this person will squeeze into power and all hell will break loose!
Smells like a duck? I’m guessing it’s more like BO, feces and Ben-Gay with this old Commie!
Bernie,
Venezuela needs some new leadership.
Go for it. Your odds are better there than here.
Tell them it’s the “New American Plan Socialism.”
Keep us posted on results.
Udachi Comrade
Yeah, because under Bernie’s socialism, everyone is guaranteed to have balloons to comb their hair with.
“Unfair”
The favorite word used by snowflakes everywhere. Used to be just grade school children used that word. You know, before they learned how the world works.
Shameful behavior from any adult. But, then, the left have lost their shame gene.
Well Burnie…At least Maduro, at one time actually worked for a living.
Comrade Bernie for Dear Leader 2020!
“My idea of Socialism will work” ~ every Socialist ever
Sanders needs to join Woodrow Wilson and FDR in the Circles of Hell.
Take a powder, Bernie, old man.
