I doubt they are suddenly going to have a lightbulb moment.

The association of socialism with communism is very powerful and Bernie's own praise of Cuba and defense of Venezuela will seal the deal for them.

I think that the people outside Trump's core supporters may be persuaded by a mainstream "known quantity" candidate like Joe Biden.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
