Jeb Bush Just ‘Felt The Bern’ In A Truly Awesome Photobomb

?resize=611%2C459

When Jeb Bush headed out to Mackinac Island, Michigan this week, he might have expected to come across some interesting views, and maybe some wildlife. Instead, he came face-to-face with the phenomenon of “Republicans for Bernie Sanders” and found himself in one of the finest photobombs you’ll see this week.

It hadn’t even occurred to us that there were Republicans for Bernie Sanders, but they have the T-shirts to prove it, in public no less. Tal Kopan of CNN managed to photograph one of these rare creatures in the wilds of Mackinac Island, Mich.

If they're for Sanders, they couldn't really be Republicans. Either that or they're totally confused.

Peoples' beliefs are a lot more complicated than what you see reported on Face the Press and Fox "News"

but it could have the same meaning as Democrats for Donald. Meaning they think he's the candidate most likely to lose in the General Election.

People from across the political spectrum can see that Bernie will be good for this nation. I have not yet heard a good reason to believe the electorate generally will not vote for him.
