Thank you, PR.

I want to first say that I respect and appreciate you perspective and opinion.

Yes, I do possess a strong core of beliefs. But one doesn't necessarily need to have obtained it from Bastiat, Hayek, Friedman or Rand etc.

Certainly I realize most folks also aren't Constitutionally or politically savvy. And yes, you're right -- the majority do get their news from the usual TV outlets as well as from Yahoo/Google headlines.

But here's where I believe you my be wrong. These same people sense something is terribly wrong with the morals and ethics of our leaders and institutions. The majority innately know right from wrong.

Sanders will not be able to brand himself as a "good Communist/Socialist" and make it stick. He can shuck and jive, duck and hide -- as will Hillary or even Biden.

Their problem will be a Donald Trump who will tear apart any pretense and act that the media used to mask, cover, and spin. They and their lies will be raw meat for Trump, who expose the flea, the maggots, and rats and grind and shred them to pieces.

As for Biden, his story will be:
“Ending the rancor in the Democrat party”
“A steady hand in time of turmoil”
“Someone who’s been there for the last 8 years”
“Someone who knows what’s happening in the world and isn’t going to overreact”
“Someone you can trust”

You and I (and many here) know all the things you posted about him are true. For the reasons I stated above about Sanders, I acknowledge that for most people, those things about Biden won’t matter. He will be untarnished by the long primary...

I'd dispute that notion totally. Biden IS indeed tarnished by his close association with O'Bamster AND the malodorous record. Trump will make him wear it with bells. THEN ridicule his utter lack of accomplishment in 8 years, his sheer idiocy, and his creepiness.

The Dems will nominate Biden and Pocahontas at their own risk. Trump will not (IMO) have any problem is taking this duo down with ease.

I hope you’re right. If I were a betting man, I’d say

Trump 57/43 Clinton (if Sanders isn’t VP)
Trump 52/48 Clinton (if Sanders is VP)
Trump 51/49 Sanders
Biden 53/47 Trump
