Bernie Sanders To Announce Presidential Run
VPR ^ | 48 minutes ago | By Bob Kinzel

Posted on 04/28/2015 2:12:35 PM PDT by yuffy

VPR News has learned from several sources that Independent U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders will announce his candidacy for the Democratic presidential nomination on Thursday.

Sanders will release a short statement on that day and then hold a major campaign kickoff in Vermont in several weeks.

Audio from this story will be posted at approximately 11 a.m. on Wednesday, April 29.

Sanders' entry into the Democratic race ensures that Hillary Clinton will face a challenge to win the support of the liberal wing of the party.

Sanders' basic message will be that the middle class in America has been decimated in the past two decades while wealthy people and corporations have flourished.

His opposition to a proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal (T.P.P.) shows how he plans to frame this key issue of his campaign.

"If you want to understand why the middle class in America is disappearing and why we have more wealth and income inequality in America than we have had since the late 1920s, you have to address the issue of trade,” Sanders said in a phone interview on April 23.

As the longest-serving Independent member of Congress, Sanders has been a vocal critic of the influence that large corporations have on the political process.

"All of the major corporations want to continue with this trade policy. Wall Street wants to continue this trade policy. The drug companies want to continue this trade policy. But organizations representing American workers and the environment do not want to continue the trade policy. They want new trade policies,” he said.

Sanders could actually unseat Hillary, if he went at her no holds barred.

I encourage Bernie to run. I might even donate to his campaign.

Wouldn’t it be something if the old fart ended up getting the nomination? Hey, it’s still early and anything can happen.

I really think we should support Hitlery in the primaries....because she will be so easy to beat.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Nope; I’d rather see her lose or be forced to drop out by scandal, health issues or whatever. She is evil personified and she will finish what B. Hussein Obama started; destroying this nation. We don’t want her to be the Dem nominee.... she would NOT be easy to beat. She starts out with 47% of the DemocRAT lemmings in her pocket and then throw in those who think it would be “cool” to vote for the first woman POTUS. Oh, and did I mention a $2 Billion campaign war chest? NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE CLINTONS.
