“To advocate socialism requires a large amount of ignorance and a little hatred, resentment, and class envy.”
Not to mention a basis of atheism, steeped with deep abiding hatred for any idea of a supreme being.
IMHO
“Honesty and a genuine value system”
You’ve got to be kidding me, the guy is a freaking Communist (Socialist)!!!
But a majority of our nation has been dumbed-down and brainwashed by our educational system, and our media that Marxism is good - only they know it only as Democratic party world-view. Even Debbie blabbermouth Wasserman-Shultz doesn’t know what socialism is.
They don’t know how to think, and are the real “mind-numbed robots”.
> Who knows which candidate the pollsters will be rooting for next month.
Simple, whoever has the most money to pay for polling. Always follow the money.
Sounds like America in 2015
The ignored elephant in the room is that Bernie is not a Democrat. It does not matter that he caucuses with them. He could not be the Democrat candidate, but he sure could run third party. THAT is what freaks Democrats out.
If there was a Republican candidate with views as kooky and extreme as Sanders’ the media would turn him into a McDonald’s Happy Meal toy within a week. Of course, Sanders is an “Independent” Socialist, but low-information voters just think that’s a more “fair” thing than what we have now, so they have no issues with it.
“Weekend at Bernie’s”-
For 4 years? in the WH?
I think not
Pollsters need to stop smoking weed before tallying their numbers.
It sounds like somebody has been hittin’ da happy smoke. Hillary is going to be the ‘RAT nominee and all of the “major polls” in the world aren’t going to change that.
The person who wrote this is on drugs.
Comrade Bernie is 73. He is humorless, pedantic, & intolerant of opposing views.
Ronald Reagan was 73 when he creamed Walter Mondull in ‘84. He was much younger than his age, cheerful & optimistic & remained so for the rest of his days.
Sanders has been waiting for the revolution since 1968. The waiting has left him burned out as a human being.
Michael Savage said last week he was praying for a “Shootout between Socialism and Capitalism”..... between Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump.
Once, and for all... let’s get it on.
I agree... except, I don’t think it would be “for all”. Like cockroaches, Leftist NEVER go away. They just run for the shadows until people forget they are there.
Hey if he can beat any Rep just tell Biden to stay home:-)
I wondered about him being an Independent. How is that going to work? Can he just cross over and be a dem. Kind of embarassing to have someone that’s not in your party just walk in and take over.
“To advocate socialism requires a large amount of ignorance and a little hatred, resentment, and class envy.”
You’ve just described the mindset of at least 47% of the electorate.
Not to mention a basis of atheism, steeped with deep abiding hatred for any idea of a supreme being.
Sounds like the typical poster I encounter on the MSM comment boards. They defend Planned Parenthood and every other odious leftist plank. They denounce God with a gleam. They are Legion.
That's likely true, especially when you have a pro-'Rat pollster, which is probably the case in whatever poll(s) this Huff Post writer is citing.
But when he comes up with Sanders beating Walker in a head to head matchup, I'd like to know what percentage of those questioned even know who Sanders and Walker are. My guess is that name recognition nationally is very low for both at this stage of the game. So I'd call the result of this poll meaningless.
Cruz
That is all.
