2016 Postmortem
Showing Original Post only (View all)The logical reason that Bernie will win. [View all]
Alright, here it goes.
So in 2008, there was an election in which an outsider ran against some well known and established politicians and he won because he ran on a platform that preached endlessly towards CHANGE and HOPE.
He promised the people he would work with them to get their needs met. He was attacked and smeared much in the same way Bernie is today. But there was a great wave of discontented Americans that carried him to the White House.
Who were those Americans? They were the progressive youth of our nation. They were the majority that voted him into the white house.
Now, let's look at the present day. And this part is very important. That generation is still here, they're a bit older and there are thousands more progressive youth that has joined them. For the most part, they're not entirely dissatisfied with their choice in Obama.
But remember this, they didn't vote for Hillary, and they weren't moved by any other message.
Now we have Bernie and he's appealing to the very same people that Obama had enchanted. Also take into consideration that Bernie is doing better than Obama did at this same point in time.
Now ask yourself the following question and you should come to the same logical conclusion that I have.
-Since that same majority that elected Obama not only still exists, (they've grown larger) why would they vote for a centrist moderate that they didn't vote for the first time round?
I mean, that logic is clear as day to me. The older generation has moved on, the younger has gotten bigger and they're becoming more politically involved than before.
How would that ever work in favor of Hillary?
And sorry, polls mean nothing after seeing what CNN was capable of doing. Scrubbing their poll results after the debate, scrubbing pro-Bernie/anti-Hillary comments, etc...
That alone proved that we're in an era where corporations are literally attempting to control the freedom of information. And in the favor of Hillary.
Remember what I said about Biden? Be wary when the powers that be are choosing a favorite for you. You can eat what you're served if you want but not me. :/
Either way, the generation that voted Obama instead of Hillary is still here. They're bigger than before and smarter. They exist. I feel like it's honestly as if they're the elephant in the room that Hillary supporters aren't really thinking about.
