2016 Bernie Sanders (D-VT) campaign for POTUS thread

The last two guys that accomplished that were extremely charismatic. I don’t think Bernie can pull it off, and there’s a lot of danger in him trying. 2018 is an ugly enough map for Democrats as it is. If Sanders pushed too hard, Republicans could emerge with veto proof majorities. That’s assuming they take no losses in 2016, of course, which is also possible, as Bernie would probably have poor coattails. Bernie’s success would probably inspire unwise primary challenges by socialist candidates which would cost some seats the Democrats otherwise might have won.

Thank you for your concern-t-- . . . for your concern.
