Bernie Sanders remains one of Americas most popular politicians

111. You're right--younger people are mostly disengaged from politics,

and they suffer for it. I have been talking to my students for years about how they are an easy target for the politicians, who are always eager to sell out their future because so few young people vote that there's no penalty for it. And you're exactly right that no end of misinformation is directed at young people in order to keep them disengaged.

The point of bringing up that poll, and there are others, was to show that bald statements like "black people hate Bernie" are oversimplifications, to put it politely. I certainly wouldn't say that older voters are worth nothing, since I'm one of them myself. Neither do I think that younger voters are too clueless and bamboozled to be worth anything.

And while it would be nice to think that nobody here is trying to rehash the primaries, it's hard to find a better explanation for people spending their every waking moment attacking one of the very few people making a direct, cogent critique of this dumpster fire of a presidency.
