Bernie Sanders calls for full audit of Fed

[unknown]

Don't trust Bernie Sanders!

When the guy had a chance to pass the audit Bill, he sold out.

Now he wants a full audit? Come on...

Ron Paul says Bernie Sanders 'sold out' on Fed amendment.

but he's pro-pot and anti-war and anti-CISA apparently and for auditing the fed. barring a rand miracle, i'll be voting lp (unless it's a Barr type). but i'd like to see a pro-peace candidate make some waves.

Sanders isn't anti war. His job is to rope-a-dope the democrats that might be thinking of straying off the (D) reservation. He's already said he will endorse the Wicked Witch when he loses the nomination. Some say Rodham-Clinton already has all the delegates she needs. Anyway, he's consistently behind in all polls and will never be the nominee.

Bernie had anti war protesters arrested during the PNAC Serbia war, and he runs around telling people that war was to prevent a "genocide" - Bubba's lie that paved the way for 78 days of bombing and subsequent invasion of a nation that never did a thing to the US. Camp Bondsteel- the Guantanimo of the Balkans, is still there and under US control. Few know or care.



"Bernie Sanders is anti war" couldn't be farther from the truth.



Try to discuss these issues with the Sandernistas and it's like trying to ask a Rand Paul fanatic why he lied about Russia and Crimea. They love him, just like Rand followers love him. It's way past time for the American People to stop falling in love with the people applying for the job of Commander in Chief. But they won't and that's why the US is broke and dysfunctional.

Probably already posted but Sanders was who killed the original Fed audit bill in 2010.

This vid is recently dated but it's from 2010! At the last minute Sanders switched bills...


There should be more economic threads in GP instead of relegated to the Econ subforums where only the wonks read them.

legalize competing currencies.

I agree. Of course, any country that tries to introduce a competing currency is deemed "war criminals" and "terrorists" and we go to war with them. Anyone know what the Dinar is?

There is only ONE Rand Paul in the Senate. We need SIXTY votes to pass audit the fed.


WHY ARE PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT US GAINING VOTES/LEVERAGE?

 

[Ronin Truth]

Seriously, where has socialist Bernie been on this issue for the last 20 years?

 

[LibertyEagle]

Oh, he's just trying to appease the Ron Paul supporters who now are in Bernie's camp.

Bernie Sanders stabbed Ron Paul in the back at the precise moment when a full Federal Reserve audit could finally have been voted on.

Exactly. I can't figure out if people want Bernie Sanders to vote against the bill.

Of course we want him to vote for the bill, but we need to remain aware that he can't be trusted.
What's to stop Sanders from watering down Rand's bill too, then pretending to have accomplished something significant...again... because most people don't know any better?

It's not that simple. Sanders is controlled since he killed the bill when it wasn't on the bankster's "schedule" to end the petrodollar. Shows where Bernie takes his orders from. Now that the banksters are ending the petrodollar standard, an audit will likely happen in order to provide an excuse for why the current iteration of the Fed ends in the near future (end of the fiat petrodollar standard). Enter Bernie to swoop in and claim ownership for killing the bank...

The real history of the end of the Fed must at least be preserved, lest it be rewritten. My .02.

The point isn't whether to trust Sanders or not. We all know that Sanders believes in the Fed for his own political purposes. The point of him coming out in support of a full audit is to use his words to convince other Democratic Senators to support the bill.

The vote is less than two weeks away. I could care less who comes out in support of a full audit now. If Rubio wants to take credit and mobilize his supporters to contact Senators or Clinton says she supports a full audit, at this point, it doesn't matter because we have one chance for the Senate to pass the bill. Once Senators go on the record, they do not change their votes in the future and there is very low turnover in the Senate. If we can't pass it on January 12, it will be awhile before we have another shot to pass it.

I dont think Sanders is as nefarious as people take him for. A relative of mine knows him to a small degree. He seems truly idealistic, but sadly, incredibly naive. I think if he knew about the danger the fed poses, he'd oppose it. Perhaps he is only doing this to play politics, or maybe he learned/noticed something?

A boy can dream.
