All Democrats are looking good in the poll. While Trump gets his highest percentage(32%) when pitted against Sanders, if Sanders switched parties and became a Democrat, Sanders is also looking good.

I'm not sure why they don't poll him as a third party candidate. Jane has been open about the possibility.

(30,481 posts)Any candidate running as a Democrat in the primary for President must publicly declare they are a Democrat before doing so. I do not believe there is any context in time except it must be done at some point before declaring for the primary.

(151,269 posts)It just goes to show you, doesn't it.
But, none of this matters right now. Not one bit. It's all irrelevant two months out from the mid-term elections and at the same time as Trump's minions are getting sent to the slammer. It's a long way to 2020, and there's so much that is going on in the meantime.
So, forgive me if I don't give a shit who's ahead for 2020. It doesn't matter at all right now. It's just a distraction from the real issues.
And, yes, I know you know that and I understand why you posted this. I just wanted to stick my nose in here and point out the irrelevancy of this at the moment. I did the same in that other thread, too.

(53,994 posts)It would be nice if he ran with someone from a younger generation, though, in order to start the transition of party power. There's nothing wrong with being old, but nothing lasts forever. There doesn't come a time when we age in reverse.
