Bah, I’ll give The Bern a pass on this one. It’s clear to me at least that he meant a total of 1 million volunteers, with volunteers in every state.

The author has it right - they don’t need math or geography. All that matters is that it “feels” right. God spare us from these people.

"Honestly, he was the last demoKKKrat I wanted to see ran! He is a huge threat to trump’s reelection. Trump will have a hard time with this fool as far as with the enthusiasm aspect of the young snot socialist gullible children turning out for him in droves. DON’T UNDERESTIMATE this loony OLD COMMUNIST FART!! If it weren’t for Hitlery hijacking him in 2016, he would’ve given Trump a run for his money!! He is dangerous...God help us if this old red bastard gets elected!"

Bernie, like any communist is dangerous; however, I don't think he's going to be a major threat this time around.

1. He found out how profitable a presidential run can be, even if you don't get the nomination. I think he's going to phone this campaign in, and just go through the motions, raise some funds, hold some rallies and eventually fade into the background...maybe become something of a kingmaker with the other candidates kissing his ring and ultimately seeking his endorsement.

2. In 2016, he struck a chord with a lot of democrat voters who either just didn't like Hitlery or were at least intellectually honest to realize Bernie had a better shot in the general election. He was the alternative to Hillary. This time around there are a host of fresh-faced communists that will split that demographic. Older wymen feministas will start out behind Warren instead of Hillary. Kam-allah and Corey will draw a lot of the younger hipsters and the blacks who are trying to re-live that Obama feeling (though I suspect a not insignificant number of blacks will drift toward Trump).

Last time around Bernie's age was a novelty. This time it's going to be a liability.

Will liberal outlets like Politifact fact check the geography-challenged Bernie Sanders?

LOL, good one, got a laugh out of me.

“How could Bernie and his staffed have missed this?”

Ignorance AND stupidity sometimes come together— as in BERRRNEEE ! (And his fab crew for the election)

It's nice! It's like a homecoming of sorts.

As I understand Bernie will have to run as a democrat, none of this independent/socialist stuff.

Of course, it will be the reverse of Ronald Reagan. He famously said, "I didn't leave the Democrat Party. It left me."

Bernie can say, "I didn't join the Democrat Party. It joined me."

hmmmm... a poll tax is suddenly sounding appealing.

Whenever the dnc ballot count outpaces population increases, it’s time!

according to coumo, I think NY is on pace to lose that many

I just interpreted it as meaning a million volunteers across the country.

In fairness to the old fool.....he could have meant “1-million volunteers -comma- in every state of the country”, meaning 1-mil spread out over the 57 states, not 1-mil in each state.

See, the big picture here is the MSM will ‘cover’ Burnies 10 by citing he was generalizing, he was unfamiliar with the computer equipment etc etc etc

Now when PDJT says 800 people died from gunshot wounds last night, the MSM will research the puke out of it and come screaming back saying he is a GD Liar who can’t get his facts straight because only 799 died....even if he was trying to ‘soften the blow’ they would scream the same if it were 815..

Sanders and the rest of these lying, American hating deceitful racist Democrats are going to get their heads handed to them. Sanders chances of being POTUS are as likely as me riding a unicycle while juggling flaming chainsaws. What a nutcake.

I would not call this big. He is actually trying to say 1 million spread across every state. Not 1 million per state. Calling this a big gaffe does not help.

That's what I thought, also, Besides, he's going to legitimately screw up plenty of times during the campaign.

No one has a gun to their head to live in DC, IOW, AFAIC, screw them, they willingly gave up their right to representation by moving there. If they don't like it (and living there is not cheap), they can get out.
The entire town should be prohibited from having any permanent population, other than owner-occupied rental units (boarding houses, multiunit homes, and B&Bs); the city should be reserved for fed gov't, embassies, and tourism (hotels, restaurants, B&Bs). The small handful of remaining residents should be given the option of where to register (MD or VA).
Oh, and Bernie is a dumbass. And the media calling him out? Don't make me laugh. :^) Thanks g..

The ‘media’ isn't big on ‘calling out’ liberals on anything. The press whores for liberals - definitely in bed with each other.
