...Bernie's was and is reasonable when talking to reasonable people...he'll be a reasonable President we can listen to and understand...

...I love his weaponized right hand and finger...when he gets those moving, truth abounds everywhere, and I just have to shake my head 'yes'...

...Bernie, YES...

...but there is not really evidence of this in his favor during his two campaigns in 2016 and 2020. He currently has about 70% of the Democratic Primary voters choosing other candidates. In 2016, only 43% of the voters supported him. I am not sure how he thinks he will magically turn this into record turnout for a general election.

We were a caucus state. Most of the people voting here in 2016 were first-timers. And I don't mean most of the Sanders supporters. I mean most of the people. All the regulars simply could not believe how fully the caucus sites were.

Utah is an exception though, in a lot of ways. But it did happen here.

...personally I think they should be done away with. We saw a mess in both Iowa and Nevada with how disorganized the reporting was. And it just seems like a silly way to do elections. If anything, I believe it actually hurts turnout compared to regular voting. Takes longer to participate in the caucuses and most people don't have the time for it.
