2020: Sanders has big lead, Zuckerberg the dark horse, McAuliffe dead last

The upcoming 2020 Democratic presidential is Sen. Bernie Sanders' to lose, according to a new election poll.

Sanders has a huge lead over rivals Sen. Elizabeth Warren and former Vice President Joe Biden, both of whom are eyeing a bid.

The dark horse appears to be Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg.

Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe, a media and Clinton favorite, is dead last with just 1 percent supporting his candidacy in the Zogby Analytics survey of likely Democratic primary voters provided exclusively to Secrets.

Sanders, who was edged out by Hillary Rodham Clinton in 2016, is her heir apparent. Some 28 percent back Sanders, nearly twice that of Biden at 17 percent and nearly three times Warren's 12 percent.

"Democratic primary voters are still excited about the prospect of Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders winning the nomination," said the survey analysis, provided to Secrets.

Sanders wins most groups, said Zogby. "Among the democratic base, which consists of women voters, younger voters, voters living in large cities and many minority voters; Sanders performs well among all of these groups. Among women, Sanders beat Warren with a ratio of more than 3 to 1 and Biden almost 2 to 1. When it came to younger Millennial voters age 18-29, Sanders (42 percent) dominates. He beats Warren (22 percent) nearly 2 to 1 and Joe Biden (12 percent) 3 to 1."

Willie Brown’s mistress was born to two foreign nationals and is not a natural born citizen.

And with today’s drugged up, dumbed-down idiots, this ticket would get millions of votes. Many would vote for them just for laughs, but as we know, it would surely be no joke.

Useless and meaningless polls this early — as 2016 demonstrated.

Ah, but if she hasn't assumed room temperature by then it will more likely be a very slow walk, or even a crawl on all fours.

So was Ted Cruz, yet many here desired him.

His mother gave up her United States citizenship to qualify for Canadian welfare benefits when she was pregnant.

Hell, even the majority of Freepers can’t even spell “divided loyalty” and if they even try it comes out as “birtherism”.

Zuckerberg et al, as rich/celebs thinking they have a chance at POTUS because Trump made it, fail to note that Trump spent _decades_ building his national brand as a public leader.

EVERYBODY knew who “Donald Trump” was, to the point of expecting him to run for POTUS - and win - before he actually did (was even a running gag in Bloom County for many years, prompting the comic’s return when joke became reality). EVERYBODY knew Trump was an affable & competent, if eccentric, leader in numerous high-dollar arenas. Wasn’t until he actually had to take political sides that many replaced their respect for him with vitriol, solely because he picked the wrong side (he could just as easily run as a Democrat, and they would have loved him).

Few know who Zuckerberg is, and few who do know anything more than “he started Facebook”. Ditto most other rich & celebs - acknowledged for their narrow contribution, but typically unknown or disliked when they step out of that role.

Overnight success stories usually are years in the making. Trump has been an emerging & winning brand for decades, and has been building toward President for years (”MAGA” trademarked something like 10 years ago).

You can tell the Constitutionalists from the leftists when they use a leftist term like “birther”.

We should all encourage McAuliffe to mortgage the house and run. We got his back. /s
