      Bernie Sanders has a national political infrastructure, locked-in support from significant portions of the electorate, and an alternative media ecosystem that is intensely devoted to him. The fact that his 2020 chances are being so heavily downplayed is borderline delusional

      He's most likely going to be running against a huge field of people who are very similar to one another in numerous respects, so even eking out a plurality would be sufficient in the early stages of the primary (as Trump demonstrated last time)

      Of course it won't be easy and nothing is certain, but "the fundamentals" are absolutely there for a run that is on much stronger foundation than the conventional takes would have you believe. His political capital has not diminished since 2016, but grown

      He's even done things to address relatively marginal weaknesses, like on foreign policy (successfully ushering though the truly groundbreaking Yemen resolution). He extracted a concession directly from Jeff Bezos! Name another national politician with that kind of sway

          The attacks are going to be brutal (endless identity stuff) but he has the resources in place to withstand them. And for people moaning about age: he's four years older than Trump and almost certainly in better health (fewer cheeseburgers) so whatever. Ageism is very offensive!

          i'll gladly vote for him in 2020 but he's gotta clean up how he discusses race. he'll need significant minority support to win the nomination, let alone beat trump.

          I agree with those who say if he's gonna run, he needs to step up relatively soon, or figures like Elizabeth Warren, Sherrod Brown will use up his oxygen.

          Do you consider his lack of support among Blacks and Latinos a marginal weakness? That more than his lack of FP expertise will keep him from winning the nomination in 2020 and he has done nothing to change that dynamic.

          Bezos played him for a chump. Sanders was out of his depth on Amazon. Amazon workers lost their other benefits in days after wage increase. Sanders thanked Bezos too soon without any kind of audit or policy commitment.

          But he's still all in for Israel. That too is unacceptable to growing numbers of people. How can you talk about Yemen and Saudis w/o being just as critical, if not more so towards Israelis regarding Palestinians?

          Drafting a law from colleagues from decades ago is different than managing the executive branch. Lots of people in military to agencies don't want him. Only EPA , DOT, and other small outlets probably prefer him.
