17. I don't think Bernie can win. I guess I don't understand his campaign.

Furthermore, I don't think the party elites, or any Democrat, for that matter, focus squarely on Trump's record. I think that Bernie's campaign, at its static15-20% approval, is neither surprising nor resilient. I think lagging behind the leader by double digits is far too little to vindicate his approach. I don't think Mr Sanders grows in popularity, certainly not since his 2020 campaign began. With the possible exception of Warren, I don't think he is pulling any candidates to his side. I don't think he grows in popularity.

I either don't understand Bernie's campaign, or I don't understand what universe Dr. Taylor lives in.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
