    I think she/Biden/Dems would gain more progressives than they would lose conservatives/moderates/independents… absolutely.

    You think. Despite not having any data, not doing any real research and not being familiar with how campaigns are run.

    So everyone who would vote for Biden, would also vote for Bernie

    Pure speculation not borne out by the 2016 election results.

    The math isn’t that hard.

    You aren’t doing math. You are going with your gut and guessing.

      The report you linked to shows what I’m saying. You should read it.

      Do you really think there are millions of people out there thinking “well I’ll vote for Biden, but it’s a close call… If it wasn’t Joe then I’d vote for Trump”? Who do you think is actually on the fence between Trump and Biden? No one… The fence is full of people deciding between showing up and not showing up. If we can get them to show up, they’ll vote against Trump.

      The 2016 primary has nothing to do with what’s happening now (other than Clinton getting us into this whole mess with her arrogance and hubris).

      The report you linked to shows what I’m saying. You should give it a read sometime. As I did… Weeks ago… Because I do plenty of research. I’m familiar with how campaigns are run.

      You really think there’s millions of people out there on the fence between Biden and Trump? Like “I know I’m going to vote, but I just can’t decide who I like better, Trump or Biden”… or maybe you think there’s tons of people who are like “I’ll definitely vote for Biden because Trump is such a threat, but if it was someone like Bernie, no way, suddenly Trump doesn’t seem like that much of a threat.” That just doesn’t exist. The people on the fence this election are deciding whether or not to show up at all. If they show up they’ll vote against Trump, but the more they can believe in who they’re voting for the more likely they are to actually show up.

        No it doesn’t. And instead of explaining why you think that you just keep goin on and on repeating the same speculation

        Have a nice day.
