Why Bernie Sanders Has To Be The Democratic Candidate in 2020

By Mark Lesseraux

Joe Biden and Liz Warren are careerists. Donald Trump’s “gift” is his ability to spot and crush careerists. Do recall his number 1 hit TV show. The 2020 general election will be about AUTHENTICITY, and, whether we like it or not, Trump is authentically what he is. His potential executioner is Bernie Sanders, because Sanders is also AUTHENTIC, he is what he is. Both of them have clear 40 year long paper trails behind them. Both of them have populist movements backing them (although Trump’s is more of a quasi-movement). The choice needs to be clear. America wants, needs and is ready to make a REAL choice.

Everybody knows, whose head is not totally buried in corporate-news media sand, that Joe Biden is a corporately controlled shill who, even if elected, will do nothing but (slightly) rearrange furniture on the deck of this titanically off-course ship. This will simply postpone the inevitable and lead to another Trump-like character (or someone worse, more likely) in 4 to 8 years. Sanders on the other hand, is going to instigate actual changes. Sanders, with a growing people’s movement behind him, is going to really go after the billionaire-entitlement class, who have been systematically destroying this country for 4 decades. *Sanders’ aim is to universalize, ie: democratize all institutions to do with Human well being (healthcare, education, environmental protection, etc.). This, by the way, is the only real way to stop the corporate-monopoly induced bleeding that is killing this nation. Plus, Sanders also has 5 times the brain capacity that Biden does (see Sanders’ recent hour long Joe Rogan interview for proof), he’s sharp as a tack. Lastly, Sanders has always ranked best of all the candidates in head to head polls versus Trump.

Do imagine the debates! A clash of 2 titans: One who represents everything that is self-serving, unintelligent, gauche, backward and careless, everything that sucks about modern American life…And one who represents everything that is honest, decent, intelligent, trustworthy, fearless and forward looking…everything that is good about modern American life. These are the two people we (really) wanna see in the ring in 2020. America desperately wants, needs and is ready to make a REAL choice. The time has come.
