Bernie Sanders was the only Presidential candidate in all of American history to ask one simple question in a campaign ad:

Who benefits from this exploitation?

Which makes him the only qualified candidate for 2020.

That's honestly a lot closer of a debate than you might think. I think you're right that Dem voters in general are definitely not as receptive to a tRUgp-style campaign as GOP voters are, but someone being relatively young and delivering a message that says "we should absolutely not examine and criticize ourselves because TRUPM is what is ruining our country" is exactly the kind of thing the shittiest Dems and their paymasters would find appealing.

I'm not saying he would be good for the country, he'd be awful. I'm saying he's a potential threat to overcome. Even right here in C-SPAM we have a big thread of people celebrating him and I'm not sure who's ironic and who's genuine.

and oh yeah, another thing, it's pretty hard for Bernie to pull the TRUMP in midst of 17 candidates thing because democratic primaries are not winner-take all

so Trump keeps on getting 100% of the delegates with 25% of the votes in a whole bunch of states in 2016, optimistic case is Bernie having a floor of 25-30% (so Trump 2016 primary level) vote but that gets him 25-30% of the delegates even if the 16 other people are all getting 5% each

Also ironically 2020 Democratic superdelegates are actually more influential than 2016, because they only really matter in a contested convention with no one having 50% + 1 anyway, a 17 or 25 way race with proportional delegate allocation is exactly how you get a brokered convention. Pretty hard to get a brokered convention with only 2 real candidates like in 2016.

I mean the real lesson to take away from the 2016 campaign is that the chaos could have broken in literally any direction, it was exactly as likely for Meg Whitman to win the GOP Nomination instead of Trump

Wild that Bernie's age is used against him by the same people that boost Biden, and also the virtue signalling idpol idiots that don't actually give a gently caress about the social causes they tweet about. Ageism is a real problem, and Bernie is even one of the most lucid older congresscritters.

I'd bet my life on this being SOP for the primaries going forward. Force a brokered convention (without making it obvious) so the Adults In The Room can pick who they really want.

yeah what's the probability that someone gets over 50% in a 20 way race w/ a proportional system?

pretty low imo

but it's always possible a deal is made before the first ballot (where supers aren't allowed to vote) though since in theory if bernie or whoever has 30% he just needs a couple other guys to give him their 5% to get over 50%
