Bernie sanders rises in the polls
Bernie sanders Has Been in a distant second from Hillary Clinton since the beginning of the race. A lot of that due to the lack of attention from the media. Which has been airing Clinton and Trump 24/7. Despite That sanders has brought in large crowds numbering in the ten's of thousands with his strong "anti-establishment" ideas and his people funded campaign that isn't backed by any billionaires, major corporations or super packs. Just one week ago his polls were 7 points behind Clinton, just striking distance away. Meanwhile Clinton's e-mail scandal has driven her polls down significantly with people believing she's untrustworthy. You put all this together and it makes Bernie sanders a strong contender for the 2016 election. With his like-ability he stands a much better chance at being able to compete with Donald trump as of right now.

ReplyDeleteThis is a great thing. I believe that it is high time that a presidential candidate actually stands with the people. Trump only stands with the one percent and the Clinton administration is much too corrupt to lead the country as shown by the whole e-mail fiasco. I'm really quite happy that Sanders has risen up in the polls.

ReplyDeleteI think Bernie Sanders would be a great president. People get too caught up in the fact that he's a socialist and fail to recognize he's a Democratic Socialist, which can coexist with free enterprise. And like Lincoln said, he truly does stand with the people. Feel the Bern!

ReplyDeleteThis is good news to me. Bernie especially appeals to people our age, because of everything he wants to do to education. About 80.70% of his donations are under $200 dollars, while about 19% of Clinton's are under $200. I agree with Carlos, people should realize he is a Drmocratic Socialist, and many people just see the word socialist and are automatically turned off. The more #feelthebern posts I see, the happier I get.
