i'll take him over hill+billy, or jeb, trump, or most of the others. Paul rand I would take too. But, since what the people want means little, we will get hitlery vs jeb most likely. Vote third party otherwise you will be wasting your vote in that scenario.

Bernie Sanders is doing quite well. I really do think he has a pretty good shot. He's polling better than Obama was at this point in the race in many places. I think he just has to build name recognition and get his message out, which he seems to be doing.
I've been saying from the start that he had a shot this election, and he seems to be doing quite well. He has drawn the largest crowds of any candidate from either party.
I love Bernie. He's a man of integrity and ideals, and he cares about American people.
I want to see Sanders vs Trump lmao!!

Bernie sanders speaks with intent of helping his fellow Americans progress even if half of them are stupid and won't vote for him . Bernie still loves them , he loves all of us and you can hear love when he speaks . He doesn't speak out his ass , or out his neck , or out any smelly orfice politics spew words from , he speaks through the heart of a real persons soul. He's just a man . not a machine

Ron Paul won a lot of shit. Polled real well. RNC changed their rules to keep people like him from accidentally winning a nomination. You'll see democrats, you'll see.

I was an avid Ron Paul supporter. He didn't have as much support this early in the race, and he was also a fringe right-winger in a liberal leaning country. Libertarian idealists are better than corporatist fascists, even to a Liberal, so he had some support from the youth via the internet. That and Ron Paul had integrity and a coherent philosophy. Bernie has huge support on the internet, which has become as influential, if not more, than the mainstream news media. He is also getting much better coverage on the news than Ron Paul did. Bernie Murdock must not have been a fan. He likes the status quo just fine! 
He's probaby getting more coverage because he's 1 of only 2 real contenders on the left also. It really is a different game. They barely have any dirt on Bernie, his message resonates incredibly well with the people, he's not corporately backed financially, he's gaining on Hillary, etc. People voted Obama in for change, and they didn't get it. That doesn't mean they don't still want it. Plus liberals are getting amped up by the recent scotus decisions. I think their starting to see that politics can work for them!

Ron Paul is a bona-fide nut, and Rand isn't much better. They push a downright sociopathic agenda based on pure selfishness and greed. Barney's quite sane, and he genuinely wants to make things better for as many as possible. Maybe he won't get the nod, but I'm damned sure going to vote in the primary next March.

Please provide evidence that he that he supports people who don't want to work. It's the straw-man that won't die.

For your perusal and reference, Bernie Sander want to implement a Democratic Socialism. Now before your heads explode, let me clarify: He does NOT want something like what North Korea, Venezuala and the Soviet Socialism has created.. His vision is copying Scandinavian Socialism like that found in Norway. THe CIA factbooks says of Norway's economy;
The Norwegian economy is a prosperous mixed economy, with a vibrant private sector, a large state sector, and an extensive social safety net. The government controls key areas, such as the vital petroleum sector, through extensive regulation and large-scale state-majority-owned enterprises. The country is richly endowed with natural resources - petroleum, hydropower, fish, forests, and minerals - and is highly dependent on the petroleum sector, which accounts for the largest portion of export revenue and about 30% of government revenue. Norway is the world's third-largest natural gas exporter; and seventh largest oil exporter, making one of its largest offshore oil finds in 2011. Norway opted to stay out of the EU during a referendum in November 1994; nonetheless, as a member of the European Economic Area, it contributes sizably to the EU budget. In anticipation of eventual declines in oil and gas production, Norway saves state revenue from the petroleum sector in the world's largest sovereign wealth fund, valued at over $870 billion in December 2014 and annually uses up to 4% of the fund, it’s projected long term return, to help finance public expenses. After solid GDP growth in 2004-07, the economy slowed in 2008, and contracted in 2009, before returning to positive growth in 2010-14. Nevertheless, the government budget remains in surplus. Lower oil prices in 2015 may cause the economy to contract as higher costs production costs in the North Sea deter investment.

This thread just proves to me how much of a cult of personality Bernie Sanders really is. "Bernie is love. Bernie is life."
Just like Obama was.
