If you'll remember back to the Iran hostage crisis when Carter was president. Ronald Reagan was elected president during that time. Before Reagan was inaugurated Iran released the hostages. Carter did not have the stature nor did he carry himself like Reagan so he did not have the respect of the perpetrators. Reagan did. You may not like Trump for many reasons, but he carries himself like Reagan. And he has that stature that people will respect, unlike our present chief. I'm not a fan of Trump I think he carries a hint of fascism. But I don't see him playing golf or basketball while there is a national or global crisis, and others will listen when he speaks.
It’s clear: the world wants Bernie Sanders

You may be right, Trump is definitely an unknown quantity, but eccentric for sure. He just calls things as he sees 'em and some people don't like that!
I think what his followers like is that he cannot be bought,,, and won't go along to get along with the status quo. His own party is afraid of him.You may be right, Trump is definitely an unknown quantity, but eccentric for sure. He just calls things as he sees 'em and some people don't like that!
There's an old saying to that. " money talks, bullshyt walks"
An added bonus. Usually trade deals means country A trades their higher wage jobs for country B's lower wage jobs.
Bernie is popular but time will ensure Hillary's victory I do believe the Super Delegates
are a factor here to control the party to ensure something like Donald Trump cannot
destroy them. The idea of super delegates in a democratic system sends a poor
message. We are all equal its just some are more equal than others explain that to me.

It was too ensure someone like Obama can never get in again (it wasn't his turn)... and to ensure that Hillary gets her turn. The Democrat creation of super delegates had nothing to do with Trump and everything to do with Sanders and Obama types.
The Democrat establishment could care less what message it sends. They will control who wins the Democrat primary and that is that.
Berrnie who?
It will be hard for Sanders to create a bigger disaster than he might inherit by being elected. Can you spell fukked except for total war?
All the top analists, Jones, Smith, Brown agree. It's a bust. Cover your assets. The trend iss down.

I must have missed some changes in US election law. Last time I checked only American citizens could vote for the prez. SO I am wondering how the whole wirld could be able to vote for a socialist. Maybe one of our US members can enlighten us as to the law this time round.
Not quite sure that the man would be of any political ideology as he did tell Pilate, "My kingdom is not of this world".
Everyone loves Bernie Sanders. Except, it seems, the Democratic party
If you look at the numbers, Bernie Sanders is the most popular politician in America – and it’s not even close. Yet bizarrely, the Democratic party – out of power across the country and increasingly irrelevant – still refuses to embrace him and his message. It’s increasingly clear they do so at their own peril.
A new Fox News poll out this week shows Sanders has a +28 net favorability rating among the US population, dwarfing all other elected politicians on both ends of the political spectrum. And he’s even more popular among the vaunted “independents”, where he is at a mind boggling +41.
This poll is not just an aberration. Look at this Huffington Post chart that has tracked Sanders’ favorability rating over time, ever since he gained national prominence in 2015 when he started running for the Democratic nomination. The more people got to know him, they more they liked him – the exact opposite of what his critics said would happen when he was running against Clinton.
One would think with numbers like that, Democratic politicians would be falling all over themselves to be associated with Sanders, especially considering the party as a whole is more unpopular than the Republicans and even Donald Trump right now. Yet instead of embracing his message, the establishment wing of the party continues to resist him at almost every turn, and they seem insistent that they don’t have to change their ways to gain back the support of huge swaths of the country.

In a lengthy — and very good — New York Times Magazine piece on the future of the Democratic Party, Sanders was asked what the party stands for. Here's his response:

You’re asking a good question, and I can’t give you a definitive answer. Certainly there are some people in the Democratic Party who want to maintain the status quo. They would rather go down with the Titanic so long as they have first-class seats.
