Bernie's idealistic utopian promises sound wonderful. But,

...in reality, they cannot come to fruition at this time in this country.

The orange yam is salivating at the prospect of facing Sanders, and I am convinced that there is no way in hell that Bernie can beat trump in the general election.

Never mind that the election will be rigged to the hilt by trump and his imps, I believe that only Biden and Amy or Elisabeth as VP can overcome this rigged and hacked system.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

First we must get trump OUT of the White House! And I just don't think he can beat the orange asshole. Then, we can move forward toward much more progressive America.

Don't get me wrong, I am in complete agreement with Bernie's progressive visions, I like Bernie a lot, but I fear that he just can't beat trump.

BTW, why are you and so many other Bernie supporters always so angry?? We all share the same core values.

High blood pressure will not help anyone change the world.

Neither will magical thinking, no matter how sincere.

Don't Bernie supporters realize that Bernie's signature item,medicare for all, is a non-starter. To get it passed in the senate would require a super majority(60 votes). That won't happen any time soon.

primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
