The Looming Sanders vs Bloomberg Showdown?

[bluewater]

Last night on CNN, Van Jones said that Democrats worse nightmare would be a Sanders versus Bloomberg showdown at or leading up to the convention. He claims it would fatally divide the party going into the General Election. He pitched it as a "Bernie versus the Billionaire" divisive battle of class interests.

Such a faceoff seems possible, but would it really be a nightmare?




On a side note, if the nomination contest does come down to Sanders versus Bloomberg, that will make history with A Jewish candidate becoming President for the first time here in the US.

1. I will support the winner 100%

Sanders is not my first choice, but he’s the front runner now and I will campaign for him. Just because I think that if Sanders isn’t the candidate that a significant and decisive number of Sanders supporters won’t support the winner doesn’t mean we shouldn’t all get behind Sanders. He’s got great ideas and will be a good president and save our Democracy from Trump. Most of his more extreme ideas will never become law anyways.

2. Van Jones is always framing "nightmares" regarding the Democratic Party. He's so negative about us.

falters. I promise you that.
