This is because you have a skewed view of what America as a whole believes in. The notion that Bernie can't win independents is silly. I'M a registered independent.
Why is my view skewed anymore than yours? Im a realist in that there are certain territories /demographics that lean one way or another, that how they come up with Read & Blue States. I also know that there are new concepts and doctrines of government that are being talked about. Im good with that, as long as we keep the with constitution and Bill of rights in front.
D, Im just not sure that the majority of Americans are ready for a Democratic Socialist. Hey, if its time and thats what the voters want, Im behind it. Outside of the Left coast and NE Im not sure Bernie would get the support. Maybe Im wrong. Maybe your wrong?
I just can’t see the Bern winning. If the Dems can’t come up with someone better than Bernie or Cruz or Biden or some other retread Trump is a lock. Semi reasonable options: Jamie Dimon. Democrat, Banking, would run circles around Trump. A fellow billionaire. Or Oprah. Kidding. Or the Mayor of LA. Garcetti. Yes we all hate LA. Might have the backing and chops to deal with the campaigning and attacks.
Dimon may have a shot, but is a relative unknown. And I'm not sure that "big Wall Street" can get, for instance, @dviss1 's vote for Bernie. Garcetti, imo, has ZERO chance. First, enough of the country hates LA that he's going to be at a disadvantage. Second, you can just show pictures of the piles of rat-infested garbage giving typhoid to the homeless of LA and say "don't let America turn into this."
What an idiotic poll. Literally laughing at that. Our best years are ahead of us because it can only go up in 2020, when we elect someone new.
Great post. Fair enough. I'm of the mindset that we're already pretty socialist. Our military is one of the more socialist entities on the planet
I'm also a fan of James. I think it's a bit "too little-too late" for him, but he's been crushing Stabenow over the last few weeks....if you believe polls.
Trump’s approval rating is now 47%, highest ever and rising. More and more people are waking up and seeing the truth in how the Dems have robbed them and their heirs of their freedom, their savings, their homes, and their healthcare.
Gallup has him at 44% and his disapproval at 51% on Oct. 14. https://news.gallup.com/poll/203207...k_newsv9&g_campaign=item_201617&g_medium=copy
I don't find this convincing. Sure, one can base a negative campaign on LA's problems, but there is always something negative to say about any candidate. And Trump pretty much proves that there is no negative too large to torpedo a candidacy, if people like the candidate and want to vote for him. barfo
