Bernie Sanders Is Showing Us the Socialist Way to Run for President

[JonLP24]

1. In my opinion

He is showing us the real interest, real discussion way to run for President if he decides to do it.

If you haven't watched his appearence on MTP, if you have note how he handled the Hillary bait by addressing it for what it is by first stating that he doesn't know if she is running or not or what she is running on the said "The truth is, there is profound anger at both political parties, more and more people are becoming independent, the issue is not Hillary, I have a lot of respect for Hillary Clinton. The question is: At a time when so many people have seen a decline in their standard of living, when the wealthiest and largest corporations are doing phenomenally well, the American people want change. ... Let Hillary speak for herself. I know where I'm coming from."

If you ever looked at the rules of logical arguments (which apply to any sort of discussion, really) this was textbook. It also shows that he is serious, interested in real discussions & real results and so far, not playing electoral games but making complaints where it matters.

He realizes what is necessary to gauge what kind of shot he has but he understands as well as anyone how unlikely his chances are by saying it would take "an unprecedented grassroots movement". If it comes to appealing to the base he'll likely deal with it when it comes, general public doesn't know who any of these people are until media starts publicizing early poll & fund raising front runners next summer unless their name is Hillary Clinton.
