31. The Jungle Primary

Sat Apr 2, 2016, 04:48 PM

Apr 2016

The reasoning is getting clear why Sanders is doing well in the primary. There is a bias that the broadcast media knows yet does not admit to.

Sanders getting those Republicans which cross over in the primary and leave the hate base conservatives vote for Trump.

The real scary part is not a Hillary Presidency. Any mental politics that makes the effort she did to start the change of healthcare needs to continue to shape it better.

Sanders, has been a long time Independent according to Wiki. Working both sides of the Algebra equation for decades.

Consequently in the background deal making has been a long time effort for Sanders and will continue even to be president. Yet special deals for the Supreme Court into a fair standard Democratic supportive Constitution likely will not happen, a better chance with Hillary.

The other Independent was Joe Liebermann who quickly embraced McCain and the Republicans.
