"For the last two years, Sanders has been setting the Democratic party policy agenda. His 2016 candidacy entirely shifted the political landscape, to the point where the majority of Democrats now view Democratic socialism favorably. Medicare for All and universal free college are so popular that they have almost become litmus tests for prospective candidates. In polls, Sanders is well ahead of the other currently declared candidates, and at this point he should be treated as the presumptive frontrunner."

There's a reason Bernie is the most popular of all the declared Democratic candidates so far. His leadership on issues that comprise his progressive agenda are finally giving the American people, who are sick of the current rigged system, what they've been hungering for.

Bernie & Elizabeth 2020!!!

Almost any of our candidates can take out Trump. He's a historically weak president. manor321 Feb 2019 #2
Don't underestimate trump. He isn't that weak. And for those who believe Sanders could take trump still_one Feb 2019 #10
It's extremely worrisome that Trump doesn't attack Sen. Sanders. KitSileya Feb 2019 #18
I think his attack on our women candidates has more to do with his sexism aginst powerful women still_one Feb 2019 #22

I am sure when Susan Sarandon and Cornel West endorse him, that will motivate those of us who voted still_one Feb 2019 #29
I will not support Sen. Sanders. He is not a Democrat and has not released his taxes. Demsrule86 Feb 2019 #25
I would also add the in 18, centrist candidates gave us back the House. This is sadly a center left Demsrule86 Feb 2019 #27
