WASHINGTON—Three years after fighting a surprisingly competitive Democratic primary race against Hillary Clinton, Sen. Bernie Sanders, the Vermont independent, is making another run for the White House.
Two sources with direct knowledge of his plans told Yahoo News that Sanders, an independent and self-described “democratic socialist,” plans to announce his presidential bid imminently. While Sanders has been considering a bid for months, one of the sources said he was emboldened by early polls of the race that have consistently showed him as one of the top candidates in a crowded Democratic primary field. In particular, the source said Sanders was heartened to see numbers indicating he is one of the leading candidates among African American and Latino voters, two groups he was perceived as struggling with in 2016.

Trump, remember when you ran, and you won.
Remember you were for America first.
It has been two years.
Your biggest competitor is back.
Are you ready?
(Trust me I am all for Trump, but Sanders was the one competitor Trump had last election, who held similar ideas on global trade)
Trump you won.
Remember why, please.
Too old and Too White
It’s Kamala’s show now.
Vermont has too little population to get two Senators...
Hillary will steal the nomination from him again.
Hillary is old news.
The big money is going Kamala’s way, she is the “anointed one”.
Another beach house and jet to go away? Sheesh.
Well he got a house out of it the last run, maybe he is looking for a jet or a yacht to keep on Lake Champlain this time around.
I don't f*ck fossils for free
Go Bernie go! Let’s see if you can go full commie with all the other socialists running with you. Go Bernie go!
He wants another house?
Hillary will get rid of him. Arkancide style.
It's now (2020) or never for Kamela because in 2024 the Kotex (AOC for those in Sinshiem) will be dripping with anticipation.
This guy has probably had way too many “self-esteem” training sessions or perhaps was given way too many stickers in school from his teachers. . . and now another democrat self-pontificator eying the presidency.
Kamala is not eligible.
Needs repeating every time her name comes up.
The DNC will do the same thing to him in 2020 that they did in 2016 -- and for the same reason.
Yeah, but the Hillary burn smells sweet.
“Sanders will be a real challenger.”
He may be. The smart choice for the Democrats would be someone who is perceived as moderate. And they definitely want to run a woman. What moderate women candidates do they have? I still think Klobuchar is their sleeper. Maybe Harris, just because of her experience as a prosecutor. I think Biden would be most likely to win for them, but I don’t think they’ll go for an old white dude.
As if that stopped Obama.
