Argument for Bernie Sanders

[DanTex]

1. You are right.

There's not any evidence behind the people who say that Bernie can't win. He does the same as the others in the matchup polls. His policies poll very well. And most of the columnists who say that are people like Jennifer Rubin, a Republican, who hates Bernie's policies and wants to prevent him from being president.

There's no way to know exactly who is the most electable, but there's no reason to think Bloomberg would be more than Bernie. In 2016, everyone said the socialist couldn't win and we needed a moderate. We went with the moderate and now we have Trump. We need to learn the lesson now and nominate a progressive that will drive turnout. Trump is an existential threat. We can't afford to nominate another centrist and lose and wait until 2024 to learn the lesson that we need a candidate who will excite the base.
