Maybe we should switch to a single term limit… That way the president never has to be distracted by campaigning.

Still would be nice to see the results if they had been included.
Gen z and millennials are far more progressive than Gen x or boomers. The “swing vote” this election is going to be young people… And they want a progressive candidate to get excited about or they are unlikely to show up enough to defeat Trump.
It doesn’t necessarily have to be Bernie, any true progressive will do… Bernie just has the most name recognition.
Gotcha… I disagree, I think we need to eliminate corporate control of government
I would have loved to see the results if they had included any progressive possibilities in there… especially Bernie.
This table is worthless
Well yeah… Him winning and then getting out of there would be ideal. Sadly, he is very unlikely to win at this point.
Gonna need that debate to be at 2pm… 9pm was way past Joey’s bedtime.
The Dems could still push Biden to drop out and replace him with someone who might actually have a chance
“One weak point” as in progressive’s only weak argument, or as in the only thing Biden is weak on that they want?
Because there are quite a few other things Biden is weak on that progressives want.
They show up more than millennials, x, or boomers did at that age
Both are very true… I wish the DNC was willing to do whatever it takes to defeat him, even if that means going with a progressive candidate
The DNC needs to accept that this is the group they need to go after… And accept it for what it is, not think they’re magically going to change… Convince Biden to drop out and nominate a progressive if they want to win.
They forgot to give him his stims last night /s
According to this recent study, young people who want a more progressive option
"A majority (60%) think the U.S. should increase spending on social programs and increase taxes on businesses and wealthy Americans.
This survey finds no evidence that a rightward ideological shift would solve Biden’s problems with swing voters. Swing voters broadly think Biden needs to take more action to solve our country’s problems and broadly lean left on economic and social issues. Only 16% say that Biden being “too liberal” is a reason they might not vote for him.
The top two issues swing voters select as actions that would make them definitely vote for Biden are raising taxes on the wealthy (23%) and raising the minimum wage to $15 per hour (18%)."
Ineligible? Bernie could be on his death bed, he’d still be more “eligible” than Trump or Biden. Honestly, at this point, does the US even have eligibility requirements for POTUS?
Oh no, the rich will keep doing what they’ve been doing for 50 years!
Bernie would tax the shit out of the rich and use that to create tons of jobs… Maybe not useless McDonald’s jobs though… more like rebuilding the infrastructure jobs
Unlikely to vote= because there’s no one worth voting for
Undecided= probably mostly non existent
Run a Bernie or AOC and pull far more “unlikely to vote” people off the bench than the handful of fence riders it’ll lose
No one who was going to vote for Joe wouldn’t vote for Bernie… It’s not like anyone is voting FOR Joe, they’re just voting against Trump, and if that means Bernie then so be it
The best we could get from the DNC would be to have Biden resign and Kamala step in… Technically she’d be “the incumbent”… She’d probably still lose though
Well if we could do that, then all that’s left is a government that serves the will of the people (assuming we still have a democracy). So in that case, the bigger the government the better.
Although in reality, I don’t think we’d need nearly as big a government to fully serve the will of the people if corporations weren’t mucking things up.
