1. Bernie is a trifecta of his own

Unelectable Old Jewish Socialist



Disclaimer: I do support Bernie.

2. I just hope

enough people remember that Jewish socialist carpenters are quite popular in the US.

3. Kennedy: Major elite family scion, money, charisma.

Obama: Exceptional technical and managerial organization, major charisma, riding the winds of change.

Sanders: Passion, riding the winds of change, only, and how far is the question. If he had
* Kennedy's establishment backing and money and/or
* Obama's exceptional charisma and excellent, ground-breaking technical outreach, and/or
* Elizabeth Warren's charisma,

there might be no stopping the guy -- age and religion notwithstanding. Maybe there won't be anyway. The winds are whistling...

My guess is being a Jew is not a real problem. After all, even conservatives fell in behind a Mormon leader last time, and social and religious cons had always insisted they weren't Christians.

4. I think Bernie's charisma is generally under rated.

But it is based on his "yooge" love of the people. So very rare to see a heart that big in politics. He is the only serious candidate I have ever seen without a case of "Potomac Fever." He reminds me of Shirley Chisholm.

5. I like his "yooge" guts too.
