2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: One thing is for sure, Trump is afraid of Bernie, not so much of Hillary. [View all]Uncle Joe
(64,292 posts)you're operating from a level of emotion and insult.
The record breaking number of contributions with an average of only 25-30 dollars a pop also have a larger upside ceiling than Hillary's donors in which many cases have maxed out. The fact that Bernie has received this record number of donations exceeding Obama's after a friendly Presidency has ended versus that of a catastrophic George W. Bush term makes it all the more impressive.
Your argument regarding the corporate media's fetish promoting nonsense is just another condemnation of that institution.
Jeb Bush isn't above 7% how long can a legacy last? The last time I checked Trump was running away at 41% and leaving the field behind.
As for click bait, Bernie would be the first Jewish President, and an avowed democratic socialist, surely that's newsworthy.
You have given me no logical reason as to why the corporate media; should be blacking out coverage of Bernie Sanders and his message other than you might believe that the corporate media should have the power to create self-fulfilling prophecies for the American People, ie: Bernie can't win so the corporate media shouldn't cover him despite the fact that he's in second place in the Democratic Primary race and his crystal message has resonated with millions of people, rather disconcerting considering your otherwise low opinion of them.
Peace to you.
