Latest national poll shows Bernie Sanders beating Scott Walker, Donald Trum

[SissyFromSpace 20,884]

A just released CNN poll finds Sanders out-polling all of the GOP’s major candidates, though pretty much tied with Jeb Bush. Here’s how Sanders stacks up

SANDERS: 48%
BUSH: 47%

SANDERS: 48%
WALKER: 42%

SANDERS: 59%
TRUMP: 38%

-

If you limit the poll sample to just registered voters, Bush defeats Sanders by a single point. Either way, this credible poll suggests that Sanders is not just some pie-in-the-sky general election candidate. His more uphill battle may be the primary. But even there, he has some strengths. Polling out last week shows he’s the only candidate from either side who has a net favorability rating.

For the Republicans, too, the race is being turned upside down. Celebrity billionaire Donald Trump is now beating his rivals in national polls; the CNN poll has him at 18 percent to Jeb Bush’s 15 percent. In state polling, Trump is the leader in New Hampshire in the Marist poll, at 21 percent, with Jeb Bush at only 14 percent. In Iowa, Trump is at 17 percent and Scott Walker is at 19 percent.

The race on both sides is slowly in the process of being turned on its head — a sign voters are frustrated with the status quo.

I really hope that Bernie Sanders can become president, he just needs to get more recognition by the time the primaries arrive.

I'm definitely voting for Bernie.

I agree with Bernie on everything. There's just a part of me that isn't ready to stomach another old (60>) male white president again. (I'm a white male, btw)

But shouldn't we vote based on the issues and what the candidates bring to the table and not gender, age or race?

yea for sure, my intellectual self says that but that little bit of me thinks our country really still needs a diversified leader. But Obvi if Bernie gets the Democratic nomination he'll be getting my vote. Just tough picking between him and Hillary.

As others have said, (ignoring that he's not Christian) - just because someone is a 'stereotypical' persona of a president doesn't mean that he can't have been a good choice.
