Is this too extreme? Hypocritical? Or is this how you get young people to vote and win this election?

This is some interesting numbers
Imagine a republican having to spend time in texas and Arizona during a presidential election

This doesnt make sense. How is Biden leading against Trump by a larger margin than Bernie in New Hampshire, when Bernie has a two digit lead on Biden in that state? Bernie also does better with independents. Id like to see the polling methodology and date of those 3 polls used.

Bloomberg spent 214 million on advertising already well on pace to topping 1.2 billion on advertising self financed.

Hopefully he ups the spending

I’m not validating the polls but that’s easily explainable. There are a ton of right of center voters that hate Trump and prefer Biden to Bernie. And those voters are not reflected in primary polling. Also, most voters don’t participate in primaries.

I think recent comments by Yang and Tulsi walking into a Sanders campaign office at minimum they both feel they will be next to go. I think Tulsi would be a more natural and better fit then Yang as a running mate.

Also Rogan specifically stated he wants Tulsi to be Sanders VP. Tulsi as Bernie's running mate would be a nightmare for Trump.

There's a rumor that he offered a cabinet position to her if he where to be reelected and she turned it down. Her floating around taking shots at Trump would be epic.

Tulsi would be a liability. Despite the disproportionate love she gets in the WR she’s actually quite unpopular with the left. And she’s pretty unknown to non-political junkies.

Man, Biden's first presidential campaign was a bigger clown show than this one.

 

[Trotsky]

Biden is a pretty worthless candidate, but he's right on this issue. Sanders should be embarrassed by the underhandedness and, maybe most importantly, the sloppiness given Joe's many, many actual flaws that can be accurately criticized.

Yeah, I think everyone is aware that she's not exceedingly popular with the left/Democrats, but I think it's much harder to remember how little name recognition she has. My sister-in-law, who is very well read and watches PBS news every day, didn't even know who she was when that Hillary thing came up.

And to be fair she’s a house rep from Hawaii I wouldn’t expect people to know her!

I think this is a pretty good sign for Sanders and Dems

Nichols is one of the more prominent Never Trumpers and he's already promising and encouraging people to vote for Sanders is he ends up being the nominee and he despises Sanders.

Biden wants Michelle Obama to be his running mate. Thinks are getting desperate in the Biden campaign. He also suggested offering a supreme court post to Obama but said he would unlikely not take it. No kidding lol

Downplay it all you want, but it would be a brilliant pick for the primaries and the GE. That's not desperation, it's a power move.

It's desperation because it's not going to happen. Obama wont even endorse Biden but now is wife is going to be his VP? Makes no sense. He's just throwing it out there to keep using the Obamas to win the election.

Ehhh, we'll see. I wouldn't rule it out. If it comes down to Biden and Bernie, I wouldn't count out an endorsement. The VP pick is a bit of a stretch, but you never know. Politics be crazy these days, and it would honestly be a great move.

As far as using Obama's name to get him more support, I don't think it's desperate. It's expected. Shit, who wouldn't do it in Joe's position? It would be dumb not to take advantage of the affiliation.
