Great news for the Socialist Workers Party, Bernie Sanders is only 10% behind Hillary in New Hampshire. Commies everywhere are excited.

POLITICO:
Bernie Sanders is picking up steam in New Hampshire, according to recent polls. The independent Vermont senator running for the Democratic nomination picked up 31 percent of the vote among likely Granite State Democratic primary voters, compared with 41 percent for Clinton, in a Suffolk University poll released Tuesday.

“Most political observers felt that Hillary Clinton’s large early lead among Democratic voters would eventually [shrink] a bit over time,” said David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center in Boston. “But in New Hampshire right now, the lead has shrunk a lot, and this is a much different Democratic primary race than we are seeing in other states so far.”

    I support Bernie Sanders' candidacy, he is putting pressure on the party from the left, which it badly needs. See, e.g. Obama's support of the TPP.

    Jumping up and down because Sanders is a socialist is actually what he wants you to do. Once upon a time it was bad to be "gay" as well, until the term became normalized.

    This is a 20-year strategy, BATTLEFIELD COMMISSION guy.

    I respect Bernie Sanders. I don't agree with him on basically anything, but he's the most honest candidate the left has put out in decades, and the most honest candidate either party has put out in ages outside Ron Paul.

    I think his vision for America is fundamentally flawed, but he's a man of convictions. For that, I respect him much more than most politicians.

    This is also true.

    Problem is, I think our political system is fundamentally broken, so even if we elected him, FDR or Christ Reborn things won't get fixed
