Bernie Sanders Hammers The Media For Refusing To Educate People About The Real Issues

[KingCharlemagne]

24. Yeah, I grant you the analogy is imperfect. I take it you think Warren has no chance of entering the

race? Seems like your position is as valid, or more so, than mine now. But suppose Sanders delivers a surprise upset in Iowa or NH, such that Hillary drops out (a la LBJ). Do you think if Hillary were to bow out that Warren might reconsider her decision?

Now that you mention it, I cannot recall if RFK had 'endorsed' or even offered tepid support for LBJ. (For RFK to have endorsed McCarthy's insurgent campaign would have been heresy, but not sure where RFK stood with respect to LBJ's re-election ambitions.) I know as 1966 turned into '67, that RFK's criticisms of our Vietnam policies became increasingly focused and sharp. But I don't know where he actually stood with regard to LBJ in the run-up to NH '68. If you know, please let on. Otherwise, it's back to the history books for me today!

Thanks for your annotation, btw. Always good to have one's analogical thinking challenged.
