29. I love Bernie's stances on most of the issues

Dec 2018

The gun issue is something he needs to workon. I'm a democratic voter so I will vote for whoever is the nominee. With that said he would be high on my list but for the moment Warren seems like my top choice.

Should Bernie run in 2020? [View all] tomhagen Dec 2018 OP
No Lucca2 Dec 2018 #1
I think the No's have it. I agree. olegramps Dec 2018 #42
Hillary was crucified for suggesting this reality. maddiemom Dec 2018 #76
No, He isn't even a Democrat. Bernie had his chance. Don't rehash the election. trueblue2007 Dec 2018 #62
Exactly! justie18 Dec 2018 #74
What about Linda Ed Dec 2018 #69
I like him and supported him in 2016 but no Jarqui Dec 2018 #2
I don't want a 2nd tRUmp term, so no. eom BlueCaliDem Dec 2018 #3
And what evidence do you have that Bernie would be continuing Doitnow Dec 2018 #50
He wouldn't. cab67 Dec 2018 #110

No, too old. TheCowsCameHome Dec 2018 #5
Hell no! nt OhZone Dec 2018 #6
Yes, he has my vote.He represents what a president should be onit2day Dec 2018 #7
He would NOT have beaten trump, there is no concrete evidence that he would have. In order.... George II Dec 2018 #27
He went from nothing to serious opponent virtually overnight. guruoo Dec 2018 #57
Nor is there "concrete evidence" that he would 'not' have onit2day Dec 2018 #61
You have too much common sense for some in here LiberalLovinLug Dec 2018 #95
Well we'll never know, he wasn't our nominee. George II Dec 2018 #103
I may disagree with you on whether he could have beaten the douchenfuhrer rpannier Dec 2018 #109
The polls said the same thing about Hillary Clinton. cab67 Dec 2018 #111
Exactly. He was never vetted. The gop would have smeared him as a communist.. Kahuna7 Dec 2018 #101

As you said "Even if he doesn't get the nomination he will make the entire venture more progressive" tecelote Dec 2018 #59
Why not? It's about issues anyway and Bernie offers his own ideas about what the country needs. jalan48 Dec 2018 #8
So if he does NOT run as a Democrat, you still support his running? Eliot Rosewater Dec 2018 #10
I think anyone can run in the primary. jalan48 Dec 2018 #15
Which primary? Democratic primary? Eliot Rosewater Dec 2018 #23
Not at all. You're confusing the primary with the general election. jalan48 Dec 2018 #33
So you are possibly going to support a NON democrat in the primary? Eliot Rosewater Dec 2018 #68
Why make this personal? jalan48 Dec 2018 #89
Why not answer my question? I am not kidding around, either. Eliot Rosewater Dec 2018 #90
Good for you! I think if we focus on issues and not personalities we will have fewer problems. jalan48 Dec 2018 #91
Right, so if a candidate does NOT support a higher minimum wage or Medicare for all Eliot Rosewater Dec 2018 #93
I think we were originally talking about the primaries. Let's see who runs and debate the issues! jalan48 Dec 2018 #94
So there are 3 candidates in the 2020 election. Eliot Rosewater Dec 2018 #96
We just went through this. It's a no brainer. We have to support the Party nominee. jalan48 Dec 2018 #97
If it's a Democratic primary only declared Democrats can run. George II Dec 2018 #26
So all he'd have to do is declare as a Democrat? nt guruoo Dec 2018 #52
That's not all, he'd also have to comply with the rules of the Democratic Party.... George II Dec 2018 #53
Way too earily nt guruoo Dec 2018 #64
Now there's a concept... are you suggesting democracy?! InAbLuEsTaTe Dec 2018 #36
OMG! jalan48 Dec 2018 #38
