Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) late Sunday shared his New Year’s resolution: to “intensify the struggle against Trumpism.”
“In 2018, we will not only intensify the struggle against Trumpism, we will increase our efforts to spread the progressive vision in every corner of the land,” Sanders tweeted.

Sanders has been a frequent and vocal critic of President Trump, even calling on the president to consider resigning because of sexual misconduct allegations. Sanders has also advocated for progressive policies, including universal health care, free tuition at public universities and colleges and campaign finance reform.
Sanders, who lost the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination to Hillary Clinton, is considered among the leading candidates to run for the Democratic nomination in 2020.

Is not in essence "taking shots". At least thats how I see it.
HNY George
Good thinking.
I agree George...how, when we all damn well know what happened......1%= whiny people, not voting, voter suppression by the fascists AND probable interference by an outside power to make sure the slug that is POtuS now could do what he's doing at this very moment. I am through with this....I KNOW WHAT HAPPENED this last election. Good day
I wish every Senator
and Democrat were this focused.
We already did. We women did it from day one.

We had 175K packed into the Boston Common that day and I will be back for 2018. We started then and we have continued through 2017. We shall never stop. 
Ashley Judd was awesome there.
Thanks for the reminder, Cha!
I was there in DC. One of the greatest experiences of my life.
for all in this society was ignored completely. That was unconscionable. 
And don't get me started on a meeting I went to about the person that's the subject of this thread. Damn sure don't want to talk about the makeup of rally participants, so I won't. As a choice I stuck by and was loyal to a fault by voting for our Party's pick to run for POTUS. "Many others" as mentioned, did not.
in response to your own snark. I stated Bernie was the most popular politician based on the last poll I saw done on it. You respond with a poll on a very different theme and insinuate that I have been proven wrong. "Not according to Gallop". So I bit my tongue on that and at least acknowledged your efforts in publicizing some other poll you found on a related topic.
HNY S2S!
The difference between a poll on most admired person in general in the whole wide world, and the most admired politician in America vs other ACTIVE politicians (taken during an active campaign). And this OP was about Sanders, still very much an ACTIVE politician.
But you knew that. 
And its not my job to define what those pollsters meant by "most popular", ask them, or the people that responded.I would guess that its because as a POLITICIAN, he strikes a chord with more Americans on the issues he highlights than any other POLITICIAN. Who, is, you know, ACTIVE. In fact he has been very active.
And again, ad nauseum, who cares if he is first, second, third, or even fourth, like in that Gallop poll as most admired PERSON. I'll post this next paragraph again for you too, because you are still missing the point:
And my point about his popularity was not meant as a pissing contest. Even if that poll is now from last year, and may have changed and he's now in second or third place among politicians, The point is that his popularity is a very valuable asset to us winning again, and another loud voice against Trump and the GOP. And if some just cannot for whatever reason, get over the fact that someone dared to give Hillary a bit of competition in a primary going on two years now, then why not just avoid threads like this?

Harris Insights & Analytics, headquartered in Rochester, New York,[1] is a market research firm, known for "The Harris Poll". Begun in 1963, The Harris Poll is one of the longest running surveys measuring public opinion in the U.S., with a history of advising leaders during times of change such as John F. Kennedy and Ronald Reagan.[2]
Youre smarter than they are though. What other polls were bogus that they did?

Just 21 percent of adults want Congress to try again to repeal and replace the controversial health reform law, while two-thirds want the law kept in place and improved where needed, the poll results show.

Again, even if there is a possibility that it is a bit skewed, because....I guess Bernie supporters are smarter with knowing their way around the internet or something, and he is only ONE of the top most admired politicians, its still ONE indicator of his value to us.
Every time any small OP comes up simply praising an action by Bernie, it gets highjacked into these long drawn out, nit picky piling on. Why are you and another poster on here so hell bent on trying to prove Sanders is not credible? Step back from the long left over resentment and look at it objectively. Why disparage such a ally now? Can't you get past it? Can't you at least see that despite you detesting the man on a personal level for some reason, that many do not. And because of that, he can help win elections? You won't be obligated to cheer him on. He'll go about his work regardless. He's nothing like Trump. He doesn't need that kind of sycophancy. That is one of his many appeals. But it would help if you and others could simply avoid OPs like this and resist the need to destroy rather than unite.
Let . It . Go.
....both are questionable.
One polled only those in Senators' home states, which is questionable on it's face. Vermont has about 450,000 registered voters, New York has more than 12 MILLION voters and California has more than 18 MILLION voters.
The other one only gave respondents a choice of a dozen "politicians" among the thousands of politicians in the United States. Two of those dozen were Rex Tillerson (not a "politician"
and Steve Bannon (not a "politician"
So which poll are you referring to, or is there some other criteria you're using?
2016 IS OVER AND DONE.
Your post is awesome!
