Bernie will not get the nomination, I don't believe. In the 2016 election - he was the only alternative to Hillary Clinton. This go round - he will be one of many.

That said, if Bernie did get the nomination - he's certainly a damn sight better than Trump.
^^100% agree!

I feel the dame way I was VETY dissapointed to see Bernie back her,After she screwed him over I was hoping he would told her to go F herself.

With the legalization of marijuana been a hot topic this map for Sanders of the top.

Typical Berner, giving Bernie credit for someone else's work.

The Marijuana Justice Act - sponsored by Democratic candidate Cory Booker, not Bernie.

STATES Act - sponsored by Democratic candidate Elizabeth Warren, not Bernie.

Yeah, he signed on as a co-sponsor, as did several other of the current candidates. He's not some special princess because of this.

A communist, so in love with Marx that he took his honeymoon in Russia.


I wonder where the "media" were when it came to Mr. Sanders (Sanders isn't even his real name - his father changed it) taking his honeymoon in Russia?


Will the "media" now, this time around, bring up his love of Marx/Old Russia? They are, afterall, the greatest threat to America.
A communist, so in love with Marx that he took his honeymoon in Russia. Fake news

Sanders isn't even his real name. More fake news

Bernie was #2 at 59%

....and Harris and Booker were, IIRC, both somewhere in the 20s (and not #3 and #4)
I cant find any NPR poll that matches that.
