    You aren't nearly as witty as you think you are.

    Of course (to state the obvious), in the 2016 Dem. Primary--Bernie had the Progressive Lane to himself.

    Now, with Warren (and others) in the mix, he no longer has that much strength (compared to 2016) in the Primary.

    The only Progressives running are Sanders and Warren. He names her his running mate. Problem solved.

    But, in the Primary, the only chance that either has to stop BIden is for one to drop out and endorse the other.

    The sooner the better.

    There is, literally, no support for Biden other than name recognition and support from MSNBC and CNN, and we are still 14 months out from the general election. He's getting no money from anyone. He's yesterday's Democrat Party, and the DNC will not put him up against Trump to just lose again once that becomes clear to them.

    Biden has about half of blacks supporting him.

    Thats important because the democrat party can not win without widespread black support.

    I don't know, but it won't be Biden.

    My hope is that it will be Sanders.

    "Blacks", as you call them grandpa, represent 12% of the American vote. Trump won without their support, so your post is complete BS.

    You don't pay attention to democratic politics much do you? Look at the last election? HRC WAS going to be the person come hell or high water. That was what was made public. That has been going on for years. You look at the amount of stories that MSM runs. Look at how many are on Biden? Then look at the others.

    Lol I was talking about black support within the democrat party.

    See, for example Kamala Harris and Pete Bootygig both have black support at record low numbers.

    If you understand the limitations of the democrat party, you know that means neither will be the candidate.

    Knowledge is power guy.

    No. But as 2016 showed all of us, polling can be wrong.

    You are being blinded by 2016. If the matchup was between Sanders and Trump, Sanders would have won. I don't GFAF about democratic "politics". The last election was the last election. The MSM can kiss my ass. Numbers matter, and the only number that matters now is that Sanders is kicking the $hit out of every other Dem challenger on every poll that digs beyond the surface.

    The fact is that your remedial understanding of left leaning politics is gleaned exclusively from MSM sources, who have no real understanding of the true progressive mind. You then spout how talented you are at reading the tea leaves when it comes to Dem voters. Grow up. 2016 was a game changer in ways that haven't yet been realized. And you have already lulled yourself in to thinking Trump is unbeatable because the DNC can't get their act together. The jokes on you, buddy.

    Wrong or right, this far out polls are just that, a small sampling of likely voters who have another 14 months to change their minds.

    So again how are you so sure that it's not going to be Biden?

    Because he has absolutely zero support from anyone other than CNN and MSNBC. He's not pulling in any real money, and even die hard Dems, the ones who actually pick the nominee, flat out reject him.
