Bernie won't do what it takes to beat Hillary, he looked like a joke apologizing for that "data leak" while punting on the fact that Hillary is under FBI investigation and could very well be disqualified from the presidency.


But if she does get disqualified, that would help Bernie get the nomination, can only keep my fingers crossed that such is the outcome.

Well I am hoping for Bernie, but don't know if he will win....I guess that somewhat depends on how many people un-affiliated with a political party edit their voters information to register as democrats to vote for Bernie in the primaries and actually make it to the polls.

He has support from a lot of democrats to, but a lot of his supporters aren't affiliated or independent.

Interesting, little reported factoid about Mr. Sanders: As a result of contributions during the debate which were largely under $25 each,
"Sanders now holds the record for highest number of contributions for a White House bid, breaking the record held by President Barack Obama in 2011."

He may well turn out to be a bit of a sleeper, depending on how he spends that money and utilizes all those supporters.

I suppose we shall see how he utilizes it. But yeah I think I heard of that recently, also the donations are personal non-corporate donations meaning that all came from his regular supporters. I think he has fared pretty well for not taking corporate donations.
