you are not seriously comparing the metrics there, or even the situation....right? Americans don't even like socialists, for one. Many would view that as negative history from the jump. For another, you aren't born a socialist. If this is the strength of arguments Bernie has for his campaign to nowhere, it's not really a surprise things are the way they are.

Bernie would be the first jewish president. Now that we have our "born" criteria out of the way why don't you find a new goalpost to move so we can still pretend a Bernie presidency wouldn't be an insanely progressive step forward for the country. Also, I think based on recent poll numbers America is coming around to socialists, so maybe his "campaign to nowhere" has already started to shift the viewpoint of many Americans.
 
I feel like Ivanka wants nothing to do with this lol

Yeah I think the collar on his shirt is too tight. Looking very red tonight.

Trump is a pretty frightening figure. Unnaturally orange skin, unnaturally white teeth, unnaturally dyed hair. And to top it all off he has a tan line around his eyes from his tanning bed goggles.

The young guy behind him is pretty red too. Sunburns all around maybe?
 
Not surprised at Kasich doing well. He put all his eggs in New Hampshire. A little shocking how big the gap between Sanders and Clinton, but not wholly unexpected. Time to see if Sanders can get some longevity out of it.
 
Yeah so I'm not super in tune with politics and forgot this happened today.

Did anything surprising happen? Was Bernie supposed to do this well?
 
It's very interesting to hear Trump cut down his typical hour long or so speech to fit all of his talking points in this much shorter victory speech.
 
For a socialist, it's strange how little Bernie talks about organized labor.

Maybe it doesn't fit in with the messianic anti-establishment theme.

Well I think some of this is due to the fact that the general media only covers organized labor when there's a negative story to tell (i.e., strikes, factories moving, teachers' pensions bankrupt, etc.) and ignores all the positives (winning raises, getting fired workers jobs back after wrongful terminations, supporting local community efforts, etc.), the Bernie campaign has run a very milquetoast communications campaign intended to not scare folks. They use the word revolution but stay away from actual radical imagery.
