Sanders: I have a "good chance" to win 2016 election
CBS News ^ | January 17, 2016 | Rebecca Kaplan

With just two weeks until voting begins in the 2016 primaries and polls showing him closing in on Hillary Clinton, Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders is feeling confident.

"I think we have a good chance to win both those states," he said of Iowa and New Hampshire, the first two states to hold nominating contests. "I think we have a good chance to win this election."

If he does win, Sanders predicted his campaign would come to be known as "one of the great political upsets in modern history."

Sanders said he is more electable because he appeals to working class Republicans, Democrats and independents, and predicted that would lead to a large voter turnout that would help Democrats recapture the Senate, House and governor's mansions across the country.

Considering that Americans were stupid enough to vote for Obama twice, he has a point.

I’m almost at the point where I might welcome Sanders, because Americans need to be taught a lesson about the disasters of socialism, and it will end their love affair of socialism once and for all.

The fact that Sanders is polling above 1% just proves how desperate that the Democrats are to vote for anyone other than Hillary.

Yeah. But what about the rest of us. We don't need a lesson.
Anyway, it's a mess that's for a fact

But we are outnumbered. The education system has brainwashed people and as of now it’s going to be difficult to overcome the damage.

It’s going to take this country staring into the abyss to turn things around, I’m afraid.

They won’t be taught they will be under the yoke of. Supreme Court judges will be picked and laws will be made and there will be no undoing. The kids will just follow along blindly.

Somebody needs to send ole Bernie a notice that his true opponent is Uncle Joe who will ride out of the sunset on a white horse to the rescue of their party and America when Hillary has to pull out.

Joe will be crying about his son’s last wishes that he run for president. Oh, the sympathy vote he will get from all the gals over this will be horrendous. In the debate he will gut and hang Trumps hide on the skinning shed just like he did Ryan, the so called smartest and most intelligent republican.

"Considering that Americans were stupid enough to vote for Obama twice, he has a point."

Regarding electing Obama twice, there were allegations of ballot box stuffing by the Democrats in 2012 which the corrupt media, including Obama guard dog Fx News, ignored for the most part.

Obama Likely Won Re-Election Through Election Fraud

I found it interesting that Romney did not follow through and question such fraud in the courts, but conceded to Obama on election night, almost like he was following a script. After all, Bush and Gore took problems with Florida voting to the Supreme Court.

On nationwide surveys, places like New York, Florida and California have extremely large populations of Hillary fans, but election primaries don’t necessarily suit those places.
