Sanders has a legitimate shot at the Democratic nomination. He's about even with Biden in Vegas and even ahead in some books.

One of Biden's biggest appeals to voters is his perceived electability. If Sanders pulls off Iowa and then New Hampshire, that perception could start to change a little bit and flip many delegates down the line in Sanders' favor.

The media has attacked Sanders relentlessly, and continue to do so, but Sanders likely benefited from being in a two-candidate race last time around. As the de facto anti-Hillary, anti-establishment vote, he picked up a lot of attention and support that he otherwise likely would not have received.


Alright, I think it's time I actually start following things. We're a bit more than a week out from the first primary, so things will actually start to matter.

I predict Bernie is going to underperform the polling average, and it will reflect polling bias.

True, but I want my generation to prevent exactly that.

What has Bernie successfully accomplished in his political career? I would really like to know what the highlights are


he was able to reveal (inadvertently, but he still gets the credit) rampant corruption in the DNC and the (D)-aligned media

They don't call him the amendment king for nothing. He's savvy as fuck at sneaking left wing compromises into bills.

If it had already been accomplished why would he be advocating for it?

If you want to know what Bernie's accomplishments are you have access to the internet. Don't be lazy.
