There is no legal reason he can't become president. He just has to beat Hillary and the Republican candidate.

I say says, it can happen.

Well, if Hillary gets too damaged by her criminal activities, he can win the Democratic Nomination. If he does, he's got a 55/45 shot at winning.

The leeches wanting more government everything will turn out in droves to vote for more freebies.

If he keeps up the way he's been doing as of late, definitely. Bernie and Hillary are actually talking about the issues and what they would do specifically as President, while the GOP candidates are bickering like little kids in the sandbox who don't want to share the toys.

And you think bankrupting us even faster is a good idea??

Yes he can.

I will not be voting for Sanders but I can understand the appeal to his followers and supporters.

If he chose to do so, he could still run under a Socialist Party label.

Sanders has definitely contributed to the way the Dems are discussing the issues and differences between them without muckraking. Too bad the GOP won't follow suit.

He's actually gaining some on the old hag. I'm surprised he's still alive

I have given up on the GOP and will vote for Gary Johnson instead.

I know he can not win but he is a better candidate to me than the majority that are running on the GOP or at least their front two...

Intelligent voters don't place totemic significance on labels. They look at the candidate's history.

 

[Vigilante]

Forget Sanders..... The heir apparent....

 

[Arianrhod]

Watch me make my usual request of the RWs to point to anything in Sanders' legislative record that makes him what they understand to be a socialist. The answers I get will be: (A) "He's a socialist because he says so" and (B) "He's old."

Sanders could run on the Socialist Party Ticket and still outpoll Mrs. Rodham-Clinton/Lewinsky.

progressives/democrats in what was the Democrat party, can all run in the Communist party of the United states. they have went that far left.

And Stephanie proves my point in the very next post!

The US cannot go bankrupt. There is no Balloon payment due on the debt, and there is no way the government would allow a run on the debt. Much of the debt is held by the government itself (Social Security & the Fed for example) and of that held by foreign nations about half is held by our friendly allies.

Notwithstanding the right wing meme and the rhetoric we hear from the clown car, the US and its economy is now strong, and still the place wherein people concerned about world events park their money.

So, again, what is it in Sanders' legislative record that you RWs would consider "socialist"?
