Sanders has been working towards the things he says for decades. Which tells me he means what he says. He has always been honest to my recollection.

As to being a Democrat, to many of his supporters, Sanders is more Democrat in spirit than most of the people running. He represents what Democrats used to be and what they are supposed to be. I think there is a very good reason that until he ran against Clinton, the Democratic party itself was more than happy to treat him as one of their own in all but name.

You clearly disagree so ok.

But I dont' accept your reasoning. We will just have to wait and see who wins the primary.

So curious.. what positions of Sanders do you disagree with?

I suppose BS supporters will complain, but it is my opinion. I've stated on this thread that I will vote for BS if he is the candidate....that doesn't mean I can't remark that he reminds me of a left wing version of Trump with his supporters. BS is still way better than Trump, but I doubt that he gats much done if he is elected.

You will vote for whatever Democrat you hate the most, right? Because our most "conservative" Democrat that wins our nomination for 2020, will be a hellaofa lot more likely to support the Democratic agenda that requires us to reconsider the Republican Party as a RICO action, like I have never seen.

It's like the Mafia migrated to the Republican Party and they pledged their fealty to Putin. How do we know this? The Republicans are parroting Putin's line as facts, not believing the breath/depth of every agency in this country.

But the key is the Senate. Mitch is all in because he has to be and he also knows why ALL the Republican bodies are all in with Trump

He is the Oyster that has to be shucked.....

If sanders is the nominee of the party, I will support him. However I doubt that this will be the case in that there are are a large number of real democrats who have good memories and who will not forgive or forget.

If sanders is the nominee, we can kiss down ballot candidates chances of keeping formerly red seats or flipping other seats in Texas goodbye

Russiaphile.

His narrative against the democratic party and primary process in 2016 handed a lot of ammunition to the Russian propaganda machine to use against Clinton later.

You could argue he's not to blame for what the Russians did, but there was a point where he was clearly not going to win and it was at that point that instead of conceding he doubled down on the attacks on the "establishment." Those attacks helped Trump get elected, regardless if he meant to or help him or not.

Should it happen that he gets the nomination, I'm going in whole hog for the guy. No genuine Democrat would say otherwise.
