Born To Slay 10,996 Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2019/2/19/18200479/bernie-sanders-running-president-2020 Sen. Bernie Sanders caught the establishment Democratic Party off guard three years ago; few anticipated the strength of his candidacy and message. Things have changed. Sanders announced on Tuesday he is running for president again — but this time, he’s not the underdog. This time, he is a frontrunner who, despite coming in second in 2016, has fundamentally altered the Democratic Party. Sanders, in an email to supporters on Tuesday, laid out a vision featuring a number of his longstanding policy priorities including free college and Medicare-for-all. “I’m running for president because a great nation is judged not by how many billionaires and nuclear weapons it has, but by how it treats the most vulnerable – the elderly, the children, our veterans, the sick and the poor,” the email reads. As part of the message, Sanders is calling on one million supporters to sign onto his campaign and demonstrate the impact of grassroots backing — a key component of his 2016 presidential campaign that he intends to build upon this cycle. https://mobile.twitter.com/BernieSanders/status/1097828878310096901?ref_src=twsrc^tfw|twcamp^tweetembed|twterm^1097828878310096901&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.realclearpolitics.com%2Fvideo%2F2019%2F02%2F19%2Fbernie_sanders_launches_first_campaign_ad_of_2020_run_for_president.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Othon 34,299 Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 He's adhered to a set of political principles for the last 40 years, has far and away the best record, the best policy platform, will actually fight for working people rather than just saying whatever he needs to to be elected and he's the most popular active politician in America. He's the only logical choice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomsches 17,550 Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 I was excited to see Kamala Harris as president, but now I suppose he will win the entire election. She might be vice president though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FATCAT 60,888 Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 I think it would be BEST if Democrats don't just dismiss him this time around. That being said, I will probably be throwing my support behind a different candidate this time around. This kitten over here (meow) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bt1 5,213 Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 If he loses again, maybe he will be more mature and educate his supporters about the impact they have when they choose to not vote for the winner of the democrat primary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A higher percentage of his voters backed Clinton in 2016 then Clinton voters backed Obama in 2008. And she still lost. Maybe time to blame someone else?
