I’ve been meaning to tell you AM but if Sanders had his campaign more like you, I really think he’d still be well received by a lot of people here including myself. I hate that I’ve come to dislike Bernie, I really do.

I wonder how much of Sanders problems are Sanders himself versus his campaign staff.

Sanders is what one might term “an ideas guy.” His staff may or may not be entirely on board with him, or do not understand how to effectively propagate his message.

Nevertheless, if Mr. Sanders cannot see why his campaign is going sideways, then perhaps he might not be the best choice for President. He will still be a liberal voice in the Senate, where we also need liberals.

But that is part of the reason we have primaries, to sort out various candidates to see which ones can hold out their ideas best to the public.
