A bird lands on Bernie Sanders' podium during a campaign ... Birdy Sanders.

A bird landed on the podium when Bernie Sanders was speaking in Portland, OR and the crowd went wild.

What a disgrace Hillary will steal the nomination from him. The rich and powerful will win again.

What does the little birdie mean? A sign from the God that has cursed you?

That little bird brought him good news that he would win Washington, Alaska and Hawaii caucuses. Steven, what landed on you, Donald Trump?

That was someone's pet bird that got loose and was looking for human company. Bernie was out there in the open so it chose him. I like Bernie and I'm glad he won, but he fell back on an old myth when he called that bird a dove, and he is spinning new myths about American rights. Still, he's the first line of defense against Hillary.

Where did you get this pet bird theory from Steven?

Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Because I study birds Ron. A wild bird wouldn't have landed there. It wouldn't have any reason to do so.

I can't identify the species from the video, but birds have behaviors as well as plumage. At my bird feeders I often can't see their plumage clearly but I can still identify them by their behavior.

So in other words, you have no proof but only your opinion, I see!!!

It looks like a female house finch. That was my first thought but here's the proof.

Thanks for this quick read Steven but the first link or the second link, great information but no proof that supports your claim of a pet bird, so, BOOM!!! that one is blown out of the water, try again on that pet bird theory, I find it very interesting.

Here's where that bird lives Ron, what do you think it eats? Bernie should have seized the opportunity and declared, "Free food is a right, not a privilege!"

Did you see the news that Bernie Sanders won all three states caucuses. Washington, Alaska and Hawaii , this race is not over yet and that is a FACT.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I'd love to see him win Ron. If he ended up President I wouldn't feel totally betrayed. Trump would be better for America but he too first has to beat the establishment.

And you see the flux that the republican party is in. Reince Priebus is scared to death of Donald being the front runner for the republicans because he can see them losing the House and the senate in the general election no matter who the DEMS put up.




Sunday, March 27th 2016 at 10:58AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Isn't that what you want Ron? But I disagree. The Republicans will lose the House and Senate if Trump is not nominated. If that were the case I myself would be tempted to vote Democrat, but only if Hillary isn't their nominee.
Sunday, March 27th 2016 at 11:40AM
Steve Williams
This is the FACTS Steven. Reince Priebus is scared to death of The Donald winning and that is good.

And in the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll, a whopping 74 percent of conservative women say they have an unfavorable view of Trump, a gender gap that could cripple him in a general election battle with Hillary Clinton.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Hey Steven, I m glad you came off that pet bird BULL theory.




Sunday, March 27th 2016 at 2:46PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Yes, it was a city bird. Know any of them Ron?

Here's just a few of those birds I know about Steven.

Sanders was commenting on a new report by Citizens for Tax Justice, which detailed how many of the biggest and best-known corporations in America pay little or no federal income taxes, and said the report underscores the need to close corporate tax loopholes. (Will we ever hear how Hillary Clinton stands on this issue, and what her proposals might be?)

As examples, Citizens for Tax Justice has found that:

•Media giant Time Warner paid nothing in federal income taxes last year when it received a rebate of $26 million from the IRS, even though it made $4.3 billion in U.S. profits.

•CBS made $1.8 billion in U.S. profits last year, but instead of paying federal income taxes, it received a rebate from the IRS of $235 million.

•Xerox made $629 million in U.S. profits in 2014, but received a tax rebate of $16 million from the IRS.

•Prudential Financial made $3.5 billion in U.S. profits last year, but instead of paying federal income taxes, it received a tax rebate of $106 million from the IRS.

•The toy maker Mattel made $268 million in profits last year, but received a tax rebate of $46 million from the IRS.

•Priceline.com not only paid nothing in federal income taxes last year, it received a tax rebate of $9 million, even though it made $73 million in profits last year.

•Pacific Gas and Electric not only paid nothing in federal income taxes last year, it received a tax rebate of $84 million from the IRS, even though it made $1.8 billion last year.

•Wireless technology maker Qualcomm made $3.2 billion in U.S. profits last year, but instead of paying federal income taxes, it received a refund from the IRS of $98 million.

•General Electric made over $5.8 billion in profits in the U.S. last year, but paid just 0.9 percent of that amount (less than 1 percent) in federal income taxes.

•Jetblue Airways made $615 million in U.S. profits last year, but paid just 0.4 percent of that amount (less than half of 1 percent) in federal income taxes.

So when we hear people like Stephen Moore at the conservative think tank Heritage Foundation claiming the U.S. has the highest corporate tax rate in the world, the actual "statutory" tax rate has little bearing on the actual "effective" tax rate corporations are actually obligated to pay, because of all the loopholes that republican members of Congress have allowed them on behalf of their campaign donors and corporate lobbyists. Because of the recent decision of the Supreme Court called Citizens Untied. People such as Senator Bernie Sanders would like to change this "pay for play" in Washington.

These are some very interesting birds I know Steven, which just landed on all tax payers Steven by way of the republican controlled house and senate.

Don't you want to fix these loopholes of these birds flying away with the tax payers money after making such profits? The Republicans don't and Thump is one of them "oligarch's."

Ron, the oligarchy is the media. Between Trump and Sanders I would choose Trump to fix the IRS. Between Sanders and Clinton I'd choose Sanders. When it comes to Congress it depends on whether the Democratic Establishment puts up Clinton as their nominee. I have a simple plan for how I vote. Remember Ron, I'm a Libertarian, not some sheepish Republican or Democratic.
Monday, March 28th 2016 at 1:28PM

Hence I'm not voting in either two-party primary. I leave that to you all.
Monday, March 28th 2016 at 1:31PM
Steve Williams
Steven, the media is just the propaganda tool of the oligarch's and those companies that I have only mentioned just a few...

I also see that you have no comments on those companies, those corporations that have made millions if not billions and paid no taxes in this country and many of them got millions of taxes in refunds but you don't see that, why because you are blind to that FACT.

Steven, this system is rigged by the few, to control the many and Donald is apart of that few and it looks like you want that few to continue to pick your pockets clean and I want to use my vote so, you, we can keep our money in your pocket and that social security with 2.3 Trillion dollars out of the hands of private oligarch's and corporations...
