New poll shows Sanders on top in RI after Brown had Clinton ahead;


"On the Democratic side, the survey of 668 likely primary voters showed Sanders at 49% and Hillary Clinton at 45% – a stark difference from a Brown University poll released Sunday that suggested only 34% of likely primary voters are backing Sanders."

Why does Bernie make more sense for November ?

First the Polling Averages for General Election Match ups: (from Real Clear Politics polling averages)

..............Hillary..........Bernie
Trump......+9.3%........+15.2%
Cruz........+2.3%........+11.2%
Kasich.....-7.8%.........+4.0%

Beside the polls there is the following:

In addition to the FBI’s massive criminal investigation that is expected to continue through June with the strong possibility of a recommendation to the Justice Department for indictments, the Right wing pundits will launch the following attacks:
• The Clinton Global Initiative is a profitable enterprise masquerading as part of the Clinton’s global foundation “charity” scheme.
• The Clintons have diverted money contributed by UNITAID through the United Nations World Health Organization that was intended to buy HIV/AIDS generic medications for Third World indigent patients.
• The Clintons have exploited natural disasters, including earthquakes in India and Haiti, for their personal gain by soliciting through the Clinton Foundation hundreds of millions of dollars intended to go for victims’ relief.
• The disclosure of a series of shell-corporations and pass-through bank accounts the Clinton family has utilized to launder money donated to the Clinton Foundation into their own personal coffers.
• A series of intensive interviews with experts who have tracked the Clinton Foundation, including authors Peter Schweizer and Ed Klein .
• Two-time No. 1 New York Times bestselling author Jerome Corsi, publish a book entitled “Partners in Crime: The Clintons’ Scheme to Monetize the White House for Personal Profit.”
• A national program encouraging attorney generals in each state to launch criminal investigation of the Clinton Foundation.

Elizabeth Warren , Bernie suporters and undecideds ain't drinking that kool-aid

This internet rummer must be an attempt at Clintonites and paid trolls to slip a roofie in Bernie supporters kool-aid...

First, let me point out that vice presidential running mates are typically chosen to balance the ticket geographically, ideologically, or personally, as when the staid New Englander John F. Kennedy was matched with the folksy Texan Lyndon B. Johnson in 1960. Or, in 1984, when male Walter Mondale was paired with female Geraldine Ferraro. The object is to create a more widespread appeal for the ticket.

Second, the vice president only has one official duty of presiding over the Senate and to cast a vote in the Senate if there is a tie.The Vice President is a member of the National Security Council and serves on the board of the Smithsonian.

So thinking that progressives will embrace the "Dream Team" ticket is fool hardy, as most supporters of Bernie are not drones and this might just energize them to new heights of internet presence

A Plausible Reality on Obama's Successor ?

Obama achieved what he could in pushing the country more progressive compromising when the political gun was pointed at America's head (Government shutdown) but at the end of the day we did move progressive left.

Hillary will turn the the country more centrist hence the direction will be to the right (Conservative) and therefore backtrack Obama's progressive efforts and will bring the country's progressives "To Heel". More of what we saw in the Bush Era !!

Bernie will push the country more progressive and will call on American' voters to contact their representatives in DC to support the progressive agenda or face removal form office & in fact remove those hindering the progressive agenda. Utopia achieved !!
