Bernie less electable?
Please.
Look at the results from New Hampshire.
Hillary loses to Trump.
Bernie doesn’t even need one Hillary voter to beat the top two Republicans combined!
The electability argument is bunk.
Why?
1. Bernie inspires and excites people — that gets them to the polls.
2. Bernie is honest, consistent, and trustworthy — he’s relatively immune to attacks.
3. Bernie gets votes from new people — he won with first-time voters. See #1 and #2.
4. Socialism isn’t a scary word anymore — remember, Obama is a socialist!
5. His policies are popular — people can easily refute the “hammer/sickle lies” online.
6. Bernie is more appealing to many different types of people --he won 72% of independents.
7. Bernie’s net favorability polls much higher. I’ve talked to many people who Will Never Vote For Her
8. Republicans will vote for him — he gets plenty of Republican votes in Vermont.
9. How can big media be even more against him than they already are?
Go Bernie!
