this poll is just for fun, so not just for dems.

is that weird thing he wrote in school going to be his howard dean hockey scream ?

not if the press likes him. will hillary try to destroy senator sanders ? if he gets to close to her she will.

what is the media willing to overlook about both. as a vermonter, i sometimes wish we didn't have such zany politicians. peter welch (our sole congressman) may run for governor, which is what i wish bernie would do.

bernie sanders is a good guy, but he's a super lib socialist (demolist). i hope he doesn't push global warming, cause it's so stupid.:cool:

Not planning to vote. But if ya held a gun to my head and I had to, I'd register as independent and prolly go Republican this time. Hillary isn't desireable. Neither's a suckup Dem pretending to be independent. If Independent run on that ticket, not the Democrat one.

Still liking Rand Paul best. Not perfect, and disagree on some things, but his anti-war non-interventionist thing is especially attractive.
 
we need a character from "The Simpsons" in the race, just to keep it entertaining.
Abu would be a shoe in. He is not Christian and he is not American born, has no qualifications to be president and he talks funny.
the libs will vote for him just to prove they aren't racist.
 
I have been saying it for over a year and before he officially announced, he is what you don't see coming and you need to.

Sounds pretty much like Obama.
 
The Democrats and the alleged liberal media have not gotten the memo. This is going to be a rather bitter pill for them to swallow. There are many of us that support Bernie Sanders but it does not follow that we will simply buy whatever any other Democrat is trying to sell. Many of us won't even bother. I'm an independent not a Democrat.

Currently there is a little smear campaign under way. See Salon:
I don t know if he likes immigrants The budding smear campaign against Bernie Sanders - Salon.com

And in the above link you will see how Rep. Luis Gutierrez lost credibility. Any other Dems want to play? Sanders doesn't need to change his message. He has a track record on it. It is the Democrats that need to change their message. Now, they can get serious on policy issues or they can lose their asses. Seems to me they need us a hell of a lot more than we need them.

so you are saying party lines are more blurred ? interesting. what about identity politics ?
 
i would suggest that the producers of the simpsons add Bernie to the cast, he fits right in.
i think he is already, remember springfield simpsonville turns out to be the vermont one. dammit/awesome ! phish is. :cool:
 
You are correct that Hillary will turn the full force of negative campaign tactics against him if he becomes an obstacle. When that day comes I truly hope he declares an independent run. She is in a delicate position with the progressives who are probably going to be more difficult to woo than the centrists who normally decide the election. She needs us badly and so far she has done little to convince us.

You're assuming the masses know about the weird thing he wrote in school, care to elaborate.

I've read it, seems more lonely and sad than inflammatory.

I'm not so sure that it will all be coming from Hillary. There are many other Democrats that want to maintain the status quo.
