"Why We Should Fear Bernie Sanders." Because if Clinton, or any other potential Democratic candidate who becomes the nominee, has reason to fear a defection of support ... then we will have a Republican president. For sure.

My reasoning entails no support for or rejection of any particular candidate. I'm just stating the stark facts about a general election in which a third party candidate such as Sanders would run. If you think the mass of America is clamoring to vote for Bernie Sanders, you are wildly out of touch with the real America, which is vastly more conservative (and uninformed) than you assume.
