12. His appeal to US ... yes, absolutely ... because we're the grownups, that's why

But lets be real ... most voters in teh USA are f***ing superficial idiots.

His current persona is just fine for the primaries (and DOG I hope he wins) but I have a rather severe fear that a phony but professional politician like Jeb Bush will wipe the floor (not the Mondale/McGovern degree, cause that kinda thing only happens in re-elections, but something close), with our Beloved Bernie in 2016.

Don't take that to mean I'm a friggin HRC supporter for 2016 because I'm not (though I'd vote for her), but I'm admitting the sad reality that he's going to HAVE to adopt a significantly less negative/confrontational type of persona to have a chance to win POTUS.

And I'm sorry to have to say that anyone that doesn't realize that ... hasn't been paying attention to ... like ... Life in The United States over the past 30-some years.

I'd LOVE him to win, he SHOULD win ... but he won't ... not without turning on some serious 'Grandfatherly Charm' at some point. He comes across as way too angry to win a POTUS election. Sorry to have to rain on anyone's parade, but I feel strongly this is true.

To be clear, IT SHOULD NOT BE, but it is. Because this is a nation with WAAAAY too many freaking children ... who don't LIKE someone who yells at them. It gives them a sad ...
