53. I agree, but I was assuming Hillary's indicted and, therefore, she's forced to drop out of the race. Biden is surely a bigger threat to Bernie...

than Hillary, as Biden is more attuned to the problems of the middle class and is far more affiable. I still say Bernie takes it in a close race, but his best bet is if Hillary does NOT get charged for maintaining top secret documents on an unsecured homebrew server and, though seriously wounded (self-inflicted), she stays in the race, which presumably keeps Biden out.

Of course, if Biden enters the race anyway, you're absolutely right, he splits the Hillary vote, and Bernie wins it goin away. That would be the best-case scenario; I just don't think that's likely going to happen.

But, I spose anything is possible, and either way, as long as we end up with President Sanders, I'm a happy camper.

Let's Bern this shit down!!

TS/SCI means this will not go away soon. jeff47 Aug 2015 #16

Yes it is a big deal. Here's a brief explanation of TS/SCI, aka "Above Top Secret" candelista Aug 2015 #19

Been saying this is a big deal for awhile now and took a lot of crap for saying so. Hillary is now lawyering up in recognition that she is in deep trouble. InAbLuEsTaTe Aug 2015 #30

My question is... ncjustice80 Aug 2015 #18

Ask Bill Clinton, Nixon, Olie North, Scouter Liby Geronimoe Aug 2015 #20

Clinton was the target of a right-wing conspiracy to try to remove him from office. ncjustice80 Aug 2015 #21

You rather she be indicted in office? (nt) jeff47 Aug 2015 #33

I'd rather they admit this is a pretense to keep a woman out of the White House. ncjustice80 Aug 2015 #56

That was a tenable position before TS/SCI was found. jeff47 Aug 2015 #62

President Obama is not a dictator EL34x4 Aug 2015 #22

I don't think it is a meltdown. ncjustice80 Aug 2015 #55

Good. I'm glad that Hillary gave up the server so this story can end once and for all NYCButterfinger Aug 2015 #23

You do understand that storing TS/SCI info on an unsecured server in the clear is against the law? peacebird Aug 2015 #25

Yes, I know. Hillary will have to explain that NYCButterfinger Aug 2015 #26

You do not understand. It is not for American people to forgive, it is a serious legal problem. peacebird Aug 2015 #27

Yeah, you're probably right. This is a big problem. NYCButterfinger Aug 2015 #29

I think Biden most likely. The powers that be will feel safe then. I prefer Bernie, he works for us peacebird Aug 2015 #36

My thoughts exactly. In the end, I think Bernie can beat out Joe, but it's gonna be a lot harder than besting Hillary. InAbLuEsTaTe Aug 2015 #41

I believe improperly storing TS information that becomes disseminated is punishable as a felony. InAbLuEsTaTe Aug 2015 #32

For us normal folks, yes. For people like Hillary (or rich connected people in general) not sure peacebird Aug 2015 #35

True, but even if Hillary is prosecuted, no doubt Obama would pardon her, which maybe she deserves for all her years of govt service. InAbLuEsTaTe Aug 2015 #39

No. Govt Service includes respecting classified info, TS/SCI is serious stuff. peacebird Aug 2015 #40

I agree it's serious - indeed, a potential felony - but I do think Hillary would deserve at least consideration for a pardon. InAbLuEsTaTe Aug 2015 #43

In that case, if we are pardoning people who expose classified info for their 'public service' peacebird Aug 2015 #44

I wouldn't necessarily be opposed to that either. InAbLuEsTaTe Aug 2015 #46

Even if she isn't prosecuted - the republicans will make it 24/7 Fox News, and the rest of the MSM Elmer S. E. Dump Aug 2015 #80

So, were these "classified emails" included in those already turned over to the State Dept? napi21 Aug 2015 #51

Yes. candelista Aug 2015 #66
