5. The "he can't win" meme is only important in the first few primaries because they are the proof

that he can win. What those first voters in the first 3-4 primaries need to do is forget who can or cannot win. They need to vote for the person who has the most to offer, the best stands and the one who is most trustworthy. They need to select the person they think is the one who is best for America. By doing that they will give all of us a choice so that we can also vote for what we think is best.

If they do that then issues will become the message and set the tone for the rest of the country. If they ignore someone they think has the best ideas because they may not win then it is basically a self-fulfilling prophecy.

BTW Hillary has as much a chance of losing in the general as Bernie has - the MSM is going to kill her with the baggage. And remember it does not have to be true - a lot of people will believe anything.

So please Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina - vote for the one you would like to see as the president - not the one you think can win
