Are people just upvoting things that make them feel good?
This is the exact type of echo chamber that Redditors whine about existing on the right.
You guys need to get in touch with reality. Bernie is losing, and probably won't get the nomination. If you want to change that you need to be in touch with the reality of the situation instead of sitting here upvoting and reading articles that paint Sanders as inevitable. | 187 | 2016-01-17 18:37:54 |

If he wins the primary that means the dems want a more progressive stance and if he wins the general, that means the general public will want something more progressive. Congress may feel the need to give him some of his policies through his honeymoon period, but a lot of that depends on how much they feel pressured in their own districts/states. | 125 | 2016-01-17 19:04:29 |

And rightly so. I don't care what job you've had all your life, I won't vote for you unless you did it right. If you were a plumber who was am asshole and cut corners that fucked people over, guess what? No vote for you. | 93 | 2016-01-17 17:25:05 |

Iowa and New Hampshire, if they go Bernie's way, can really help shrink that number. So, of course Bernie is going to maintain confidence, that's part of running for office. But if you like Sanders, donate, volunteer, and stay active and vigilant.
And if you don't like Sanders, that's understandable. But when you say that he's going to get destroyed and his supporters are like ''not necessarily", that's not a circle jerk. | 75 | 2016-01-17 20:03:08 |

It doesn't matter if Bernie is the most gracious, effective negotiator in the country. He will not have the numbers to pass his legislation without Republican help and no Republican in Congress will be caught dead collaborating with him - it'd be political suicide. If we think Republicans get skewered by their own party for working with Obama, just wait until its a self-identified socialist in the White House. The attack ads write themselves.
**EDIT:** And just for the record it's not like Hillary is going to have any better luck than Bernie in this situation, so I certainly understand the sentiment of "Well then fuck it lets just swing for the fences then", but this is the reality of what the situation will be - even Republicans that *want* to help work on, say, less absurd college tuition will be bullied by their establishment into behaving. It's like that scene from House of Cards, "Do what we want or we will cull you from the herd and watch you wither and die". | 53 | 2016-01-17 19:06:59 |

Given how two polls before the one you're referencing showed a gap of 7 and 4 points, I think the [RCP average](http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/president/us/2016_democratic_presidential_nomination-3824.html) is a more accurate measure, because of the volatility of these polls. The RCP average shows Hillary is 12.7 points ahead. | 45 | 2016-01-17 21:29:38 |

I don't know any liberally-inclined person my age who's not voting for Bernie. Maybe a couple on Facebook are on the Hillary train (which I'm honestly fine with), but I've started to think these people are the minority in my real life interactions. This probably isn't representative of any larger demographic, but I've at least found it interesting.
Then again, I live in West Virginia. We're not known for being the most informed (Trump is the leading candidate here right now), so Hillary will likely still take the primary Dem nomination here. | 29 | 2016-01-17 21:28:58 |

They will shut his universal programs down.
Secondly, the Republicans look very strong in the Congress & Senate- especially the Senate.
I don't think any of his reforms will be passed and he will end up being a ruler by executive decision. | 28 | 2016-01-17 21:19:10 |
cz1zbob | 41dzid | Sanders: I have a "good chance" to win 2016 election - "With just two weeks until voting begins in the 2016 primaries and polls showing him closing in on Hillary Clinton, Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders is feeling confident." | You have this backwards. The GOP has an iron fist over the House and will continue to do so through redistricting in 2020. The Sente, however, is looking very competitive right now. Republicans elected in the tea party 2010 wave year are now up for reelection in a presidential year and with a much different political landscape. Democrats are favored to defeat GOP incumbents in Wisconsin and Illinois already, and, should they do so, that's already half of the flips they need to take back the Senate. This is without even considering other races where Dems will most likely be favored once candidates are chosen and the election landscape becomes clearer. | 28 | 2016-01-17 22:17:48 |

He may win NH and Iowa, but in any state that has a majority of minority democratic voters (read: the rest of the states) he loses right now.
Minority voters may take a longer look at him if he wins NH and Iowa, but right now he loses SC, Texas, Illinois...virtually any state with a majority of black or latino democrat voters. I don't think this gets enough play as the idea of an insurgent campaign is too juicy - but he's down by 44 points or something like that in SC and I'd bet that rings true for most other states that aren't like 95% white people. | 24 | 2016-01-17 23:31:26 |

For example a poll comes out showing Clinton with a 25 point lead and it gets dismissed as an outlier, a poll shows Sanders beating Trump by 15 (Clinton *only* beats Trump by 10) and it gets upvoted as proof of electability. Only problem, they're the same poll.

And seriously. I think Bernie's statements in this are a good way to change the conversation. There's a lot of chatter out there that Hilary is going to win the nomination. That she's leading the polls, and any of the #feelthebern nonsense is just wishful thinking.
Bernie coming out and making statements about his confidence is a great way to reinforce the confidence of his supporters and any of those that have him in their consideration set, especially when there are so many others out there trying to paint a different story. It's marketing, and I don't think it's bad marketing.

He got elected twice.
I feel like that is a poor example for why he hasn't swept up the voter base. I'm all for Bernie Sanders, I do think that a lot of what he proposes are not accomplishable within a presidential term or two.
The reason I would vote for him is if new SCOTUS had to be assigned, I would trust his judgement in appointment far more then I would with other candidates. I would prefer less executive action and flip floppery anyway. | 18 | 2016-01-17 18:32:12 |

[Quinnipiac](http://www.quinnipiac.edu/images/polling/ia/ia01122016_Icg427p.pdf) for Iowa has him taking 66% of new voters in Iowa, with Clinton taking only 26%.

There is a popular campaign, but if this were a movement, there should be down ticket candidates lined up. Look at the Tea Party. There were tea party candidates throughout the country in the last Presidential election and their influence was felt to some degree. Bernie stands alone, or at least he does for now. Until he starts looking down ticket and supporting other candidates, this is a Progressive campaign, not a Progressive movement.

Their current holdings give them a little breathing room, but they're less than even money to hold the chamber from what I've seen.
The House is where their real strength lies, thanks to heavy gerrymandering after their 2010 win. That won't change until at least the next census year election in 2020. | 13 | 2016-01-17 21:38:08 |

Electing him though could send a signal that individuals on the left need to step up their game, or that more progressive individuals are actually electable in the US, and people will start putting pressure on their own delegates to play along, or new politicians that share some of his sentiments might start popping up to challenge incumbents (The r/sandersforpresident has already had a couple people pop up stating they're challenging X person and shares similar viewpoints.)
The biggest challenge for him isn't just getting the sub-40's crowd engaged and voting his way, it's keeping them engaged into the congressional elections. He won't be able to actually get anything going without Congress that's willing to actually work on the things he's proposing. Which he's stated several times before.
So electing him is more like a wake-up call that progressive politics aren't an impossibility in the US, not a 'magic bullet' that will cure all ails.

If we combine poor economic and tax policies that disenfranchised the poor and middle class, including poorer health services (including trying to defund healthcare and planned parenthood), failure to enforce universal background checks for guns, and preventing positive climate change actions that would protect future generations, it ultimately would lead to lower life expectancies, higher murder rates, general unhappiness and higher suicide rates. Also, military and prison industrial complex is terrible. But yea, that's just for starters, in order to look into each topic properly would require several thousand pages of studies and thesis, none of which I am qualified for nor do I wish to debate over the Internet. | 12 | 2016-01-18 01:07:58 |
