I really can't see how anyone can vote for Hillary. Has she ever not screwed up? Just look up her track record.

Bernie getting hella money already though... Not to mention, he'll crush her in the primary debates... That matters a lot. Y'all dudes buying into this notion that Hillary already win WAY too early.

He's too idealistic for his own good, that's why. He's telling the people what they NEED to hear, not what they want to hear and that works against him. I'm going to do more research on him but from what I already know he's definitely the better candidate. It's just gon be hard fighting the Clinton machine

Anything can happen between now and November 2016...the election cycle is pretty damn unpredictable.
It was Hillary's race to lose in '08 at this point as well and how did that work out? Granted she won't make some of the same mistakes she made that time around but Bernie is an even more polished/experienced candidate than Obama was. Kind of why I also don't buy into the Bush/Trump establishment hype on the right. I see someone like Rubio or Rand most likely coming out on top of the GOP primaries.

Of course, I don't think Jeb really wants to win. He wants to be his own man but he's a Bush so he can't be. Being a Bush or Clinton is like being a Kennedy.

Brah Obama was a once in the lifetime candidate and he far exceed exceptions regarding many demographics, especially the black vote
Sanders is almost nowhere near as likable or as good a orator as Obama.
Obama 2008, was a much better candidate than Sanders 2016 is
And still, Obama barely edge out Hillary.
Bernie not crushing anybody
Hilldawg did find against Obama, Edwards, and the best debater outchea Biden

I'm not disagreeing that the Clinton campaign is a well oiled machine just as it was in '08, just saying you can't often predict politics. Once debates start happening and Bernie starts getting more msn exposure, I'm banking on a lot of Libs having second thoughts on Hillary...
I just wish more Jewish lobbying groups weren't so in bed with the right,Bernie would be their guy. He's in some cases just as pro-Israel as many on the right

Democrats are not only liberals. Democrats don't have to answer to progressives like the GOP has to the Tea Party.
And Hillary is has a much better chance in the general election than Sanders.
I'm not willing to risk sending up an idealist that will likely not win, when there is so much on the line.
This whole Bernie thing feels like Howard Dean 2.0.

A part of me would like to see Hillary win her primary and rubio or someone else win his primary.
Then out of left field.....INDEPENDENT BERNIE X RAND COMBO! Election of the millennium.

I had a thought.
I'm personally hoping that Bernie runs with Elizabeth Warren as his VP but apart of me would think EW would be a better VP for Clinton. She could provide the woman x woman combo for the feminist lobby, provide EW as the left leaning one against her more centrist background, and on top of that it would shift the national dialogue a lot a bit left in the mainstream press.

I would love Elizabeth in the Senate and imo I think if Bernie wins the Dem primary then he needs someone who isnt Elizabeth in order to gain less progessive voters and those are more moderate like you said. If he doesnt win...I pray that Warren is Hillary's VP choice.

I signed the petition for more debates

We need Bernie to win man.

^^^ I'm voting for Hillary, I like Bernie, but I don't want him to get the nomination
Influence the public discussion, sure.
But the next election to too important for us the left to send up the candidate with the a worst chance of winning the general election.

Nope
Any of the non extremest GOP candidate would probably do better with centrist and undecided voters than Bernie would
