In reply to the discussion: Why I DON'T support Bernie for President [View all]BlueCaliDem
(15,438 posts)would rather run against Bernie Sanders than Hillary Clinton, and we know anyone can make a screen name and post as a Liberal or Progressive, even a Democrat in order to spread misinformation and "claim dissatisfaction" with Hillary Clinton in order to weaken her. Just look at our M$M. They tout polls showing Hillary Clinton with low numbers for "likability" and "trustworthiness" but never tout any polls showing what people think of Republicans. M$M = in the tank for the GOP.
But figures don't lie:
Hillary Clinton has 29 Democratic Senators and 92 Democratic House Representatives endorsing her. This is crucial if we want our next president to get anything done.
Bernie Sanders has ZERO.
Hillary Clinton has 70-80% favorability among Black Americans, and 73% among Latino Americans (in a Univision poll).
This primary is hers to lose.
