Just a couple reasons Bernie can win the nomination IF he even runs

Too early to tell if Bernie is even going to run. The reason I posted this is all the speculation on DU.

OS

He ran strong in Iowa where it all starts. (virtual tie for 1st place)

Still has a dedicated network like over 1.5 million endorsed union members.

Can raise grassroots $.

Has national race experience and infrastructure in place.

Is not an unknown for 2020.

Socialist is no longer a dirty word.

Can attract rust belt Trump Democrats on being anti-NAFTA, free trade, etc.

By the way, folks, the first two lines in this were written by the big guy himself; it's the most of his own writing he's ever posted.

1. Thanks no thanks

He gave it his best shot. Time for new blood.

8. agree.

not to be ageist, but he'll be 80. That's pretty old to be prez. Plus, he's not a Democrat is he? I like him and his message, but if he's only on the team to run for prez and jumps when he's not, should we as Dems support him?

4. no thanks

It's a long thread, and that's pretty much the primitive reaction.

9. I don't think Bernie could win the nomination...

But he could win enough support to hurt the Democratic Party and give another term to Donald Trump. But, nothing to worry about.

11. He already lost it once.

He'd lose it again.

Just saying...

80. The guy is starting to be vetted for the first time in his career.

People are starting to listen to the words he speaks instead of the volume he speaks at. That is what will do him in.

119. And, boy is he pissed about it.

It'd be a really depressing thread for the jackpiners to read, but I still suggest Manny's primitives read it, so as to get a grip on reality.

Socialism. Because waiting in lines for one brand of toilet paper, medicine and food brings people together.  :banghead:

Exactly.  Enough good and decent people see what a shithole Venezuela is, and can still become, and want nothing to do with it.

I agree. I've always thought that while Hillary's loss was because of how awful she is, running Bernie would not necessarily have been a win for the Ds. His socialist economic policies would have been pitted against a guy who knows a Hell of a lot about real world economics than Bernie could eve imagine. It would have been a very different race, but I think Bernie was very vulnerable and beatable.

I really doubt the conventional wisdom that the hoary old white-haired sourassed sourpuss crank from Vermont and his thieving wife would've kept the White House for the Democrats, if he rather than Messalina Agrippina, had been the nominee.

Anything can happen, and usually does.  (Something those on the side of decent and civilized people would do well to remember, for the mid-term elections.)

Yet this seems an article of faith among Democrats, liberals, and primitives, that ol' pruneface would've beaten Donald Trump.

I've seen conservatives say it as well. He would have made for a different race, but not just on the D side. He would have brought different issues, and Trump would have campaigned correspondingly differently. And Trump has the business experience - generally and with bureaucrats particularly - to be able to expose Bernie's doctrinaire ignorance and incompetence.
