ACA/public option/medicare-for-all is not free
Bernie's done the math, and other people have to. Obviously, you're a ing innumerate wanker.

No..I'm not feeling the burn..I'm wearing a rubber bro....I like Bernie's message..it's just not feasible at this time...too risky.....we've made it these past 8 yrs no need for a major overhaul until Dems control congress....all Bernie is doing is spewing a populist message to get elected and then won't be able to deliver on ....he's just going to start a long 4 yr debate if he wins because not a gotdam thing will change....even though he may have good intentions he's lying his ing ass off and you guys are falling for it....Hillary ain't promising some pie in the sky bull that's why she has my vote
Bernie just had breakfast with Al Sharpton.
Black Vote: check
now he probably will have lunch at Taco Bell and win the latino vote.
the words coming out of his mouth are "free healthcare for all"
you do the math. dumb
free at the time of access, but universal coverage is paid out of everybody's income, just like SS and Medicare, and employer group plans are nowthe words coming out of his mouth are "free healthcare for all"

I am aghast that people think that a successful capitalist with all of his connections would be bad for this economy…Do you really think that Donald Trump would be worse on the economy than a light weight junior Senator community organizer?
Why Taco Bell? Did he have Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles with Sharpton or something?
The one in Hollywood is great…They have added an Obama special to the menu…Get the ice cream size scoop of butter on the side for your waffles…

Assume modest turn out increases in all demographics
Assume college educated whites shift slightly Democratic, as more Dems turnout than GOP
Assume non-college educated whites shift slightly Republican as more of them turnout for GOP than Dems
Assume Hispanic (think much younger demographic, where Sanders wins hands-down) shift very slightly more Democratic, but turn out increases slightly more than other groups
Asians shift about the same as college educated whites.
That is the electoral college in a Trump/Sanders dust-up, as I see it.
Edit:
Analysis is very sensitive to what college educated whites do/think though. A few points either way shift key states from Dem to GOP.
A 3% shift the OTHER way for that demographic gives it to the GOP.DEMOCRATS

Leaving the question:
If you are a reasonably intelligent college educated white person, who would you vote for?
Interesting.
Considering Bernie's plan would raise taxes dramatically across the board (including on these intelligent middle class college educated voters) it's hard to see a majority of them voting against their own self interests. Bernie HAS to raise taxes on the middle class because that's where the money is.If you are a reasonably intelligent college educated white person, who would you vote for?
He's not going to win. The game is really rigged in the democratic nomination process. The "super delegates" are almost all going to Hillary.
Actually, the money is in loopholes for corporations and the super rich. Bernie intends to hit them from both sides, by raising the minimum wage and exposing and closing these loopholes. Additionally, he's going to impose a speculation tax on wall street. Hundreds of economists back his plan, and a CNN Money article said if his entire economic plan went through would create a SURPLUS within his first term, as well as raising wages, increasing GDP growth, etc.
Almost sounds like 2008... the reality is, it is certainly an uphill battle, but Bernie has the money to drag the process out into late spring. And there is a good good thing about superdelegates - they can change their mind all the way up til the last moment.
Obama had a different pull though. The establishment democrats really don't like a lot of Bernie's policy ideas whereas there was not much difference between Obama and Clinton in 2008.
You really should read his plan instead of regurgitating spoon fed talking points. He dramatically raises taxes on the middle class.
Have you seen the exit polling for NH? 40% of the registered Democrats want someone MORE liberal than Obama.
If it were to shape up as Trump vs. Sanders, Bloomberg would almost certainly enter the race.
This was covered in this very thread. You're lying. It's okay ConservativeCowboy, you can spread all the misinformation you want so you keep your taxes low.
LOL editing your post. I have read his entire plan, and every page of his website, and watched dozens of his speeches. You're WAY behind the curve, old man.
Yes, but the establishment and people running for congress in 2016 think he's too left. That's why the super delegates aren't going his way. They just want to win and are less idealistic. I'm not saying he can't win, I just think it's almost certain he won't.
This is almost a flashback to the 60's - 80's where except for Clinton, Democrats time after time nominated unelectable liberals in the primaries.
He just won in a landslide and fought Hillary to a draw in the first two states where votes are counted... like I said, an uphill battle still, but making the inroads he has? Far from impossible.
What a bunch of nothing. Trump will beat Sanders because . . . .
Sanders has been dominating the independent votes taking 70% as opposed to Hillary. Trumps favorability int he same demographic is in the 30's. If you are going to troll in here you are going to have to do better than this . Empty pla udes are too easy to dismiss for all your verbosity.
