Wow, Bernie surging from 8% to 11% on DU!? Now I KNOW he's gonna win in July and Nov.!

No question in my mind now. Bernie wins BIG in July and in November.

If you want to win, jump on the bandwagon of the most inspirational candidate we have! #Bernie2020

We won't drag you over all that silly #NeverBernie nonsense. Everyone is welcome under the big tent of the progressive grassroots movement. We don't care what your past political leanings were. Support Bernie to win, or keep enabling Trump with your opposition. Make a smart choice, voters.

What are you suggesting ... we stop the primaries and annoint Bernie?

Little early for that isn't it.

I'll happily support Bernie if it comes to it (although I think you're counting your chickens before they're hatched).

But we still have a LOT of vetting to do before then.
