Ahh, but Bush is out. We haven't seen what happens to those votes. I suspect they get split up between Rubio and Kasich. I continue to believe we will see Trump fade. However! I also think that Trump is mellowing. Mellowing some with his comments because that 'that' may be in his best interest. If Rubio picks up a good portion of the Bush votes and can put the squeeze on Cruz..........I think Rubio has a good chance.

I have heard people who have followed Bernie Sanders life that he completely turned Burlington Vermont around when he was elected mayor. They said it was a basket case when he was elected and he transformed the entire city to being a very nice place to live.

The most important thing about Bernie Sanders is that when one scrutinizes his ideas they are solid and reflect modern-day social science thinking, not to mention a great humanitarian. His track record looks to me like he has fought for civil rights his entire life from being arrested when he was president of the local chapter of the Congress for racial equality in 1963, to his understanding of the importance of helping the poor with free education and universal healthcare; and the only way that can be effected is through our gaining control of the plutocrats and Republican party.
