Bernie Sanders has the highest favorability ratings

Of coarse he does the media and other candidates haven't gone after him like they have gone after Mrs.Clinton.But if he wins the nomination all bets are off the other side will go after him.With brutal Koch backed attacked ads. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/07/28/1406561/-Bernie-Sanders-has-highest-favorability-ratings

One good thing is that a lot of millennials do not watch TV. and are turned off of the political process anyway.
I am opposite of a millennial, and I don't watch any ads or read any campaign literature at all. I think the traditional way of funneling campaign dollars into MSM pockets might not be as effective.

so that's the worse it can get. I honestly believe that sort of thing will be addressed or alluded to, if not during tomorrow night's 74,000 and climbing grassroots folks meetups, then at some point. It's all good!
